Cute new foster - Who needs a Rat Terrier? :D

[Freedom]

If the 'hoarder' will tell you which vet she used, you can get the vet records. Just a thought, so many dogs get over vaccinated as it is, I'd hate to have her have a reaction to vaccines that she doesn't need.

I have this lovely mental image of her snuggled in your Dad's lap!

Good news! The rescue's behaviorist likes her a lot and she'll be adopted through them. My folks are going to continue fostering her and I'm going to continue working with her. I had a long chat with a trainer this morning and he gave me a few more tips...we *might* stop by his group class next week and see how she does, but it will depend on my work/school schedule.

I did discover a small streak of food aggression today. She was chewing a tendon and one of the kitties approached, and she growled. We took the tendon away for now.

As for vaccines, her former owner still can't find the paperwork and says she doesn't remember where they went to the vet (I suspect that means she never went to the vet ), so we're updating rabies and DAPP tomorrow, per the rescue's requirements.

Today she peed all over the groomer, but he was able to do her nails withough a muzzle or any crying on her part(I LOVE our groomer!). My husband and I took her for a walk, and I had him walk her so she could get used to being "out and about" with a man nearby. She was a little more tense on today's walk with my hubby around, but overall she did fine, and she even rolled around on the grass a little.

I'm very tired, so I might see how she feels about a nap in the kennel while I nap. My dad has been letting her sleep on the bed...where his two dogs aren't allowed to sleep...hmm...

Oh My! She looks like a rat terrier I used to have before LilGirl. Her name was Honey and she liked to sit on my shoulder and she was a sweet dog. I do hope this lovely little girl finds a good home. I bet she would be a lovebug if given the chance. Thank you for caring for her. It sounds as if the poor little thing didnt have much of a life before you.
