Princess was bought from 'druggies' as a 3 day old pup. She has been the baby since but now a baby has arrived she is off the bed and behind the bedroom door. She is great with dogs. She has been so upset by her demotion and ery stressed. Her family feel they nolonger can give her what she deserves.

Definitely a very beautiful Princess. She looks a real love.

Princess was spayed today and as we were travelling from the vets Olivia offered a 4 day foster so the car came off the M25 and was diverted to a meeting point.

Meanwhile I was able to test Princess. Yes she could live with another dog. Cats; well she sees, she spooks, barks and retreats sharpish! Olivia will be testing her out with ferrets in their cage!

Good choice of pet olivia...aren't ferrets adorable??? Cool

If you ever plan to enlarge your ferret family , let me know...always have loads in rescue here. Very Happy

Anyway, I digress! Excellent news for Princess. Her world was crushed when she was taken away from her family and for her to be back in a home is a great thing!

Thanks Emma - but no thanks! Three ferrets is quite enough :-) They are all rescues though! Maybe if I get a bigger flat :-)
Back to Princess. She is a sweety. She was a bit fidgity last night but we settled her in and gave her chicken and rice for her slightly dodgy tummy and she eventually went to sleep on the sofa.
Today as it is sooo muggy and she had her op yesterday we went for a walk early this morning and have been to the park this afternoon but not too much.
In the house she is a lazy bones. She has napped on the sofa for hours. I have just been to the vet on my road and bought her some kibble which is gentle on the tummy. She seems much better today though.
She is a really polite dog and tiny!
There was a cat in the vets office and she had a look but wasnt that interested and she just came face to face with Poppy through the cage (my big ferret) and did what any sensible little dog would do and ran away. Neither the cat or the ferret ran away though and she does try and chase pigeons etc in the street - so I think that she would be ok with a dog confident cat.
She was friendly with all the dogs she met today, apart from a rather cocky jack russell who she saw off. It was a seeing off though rather than anything aggressive and he was quite annoying so I dont blame her.
We stopped and had a drink in the park and she jumped into my lap and sat there watching the world go by. As I said she is little.
She is also very good on the roads and will sit and wait till you tell her ok to cross.
She really is a very perfect little dog. The worst thing about her is the fact that she is the messiest eater and sounds like a little truffle pig! How far can you spread kibble? Its astonishing!
She's lovely, polite, small, pretty, more than likely ok with cats and easy to live with. What more could you ask?

I just saw the thing about the Boston Terrier. I agree, I said to my husband last night that she looks like a bit like a french bull dog. Her eyes are wide and her ears stick up all the time.

She was very keen to go for her walk this morning. I think that she is feeling much better, she was full off beans! Have walked round the park she's had her breakfast and shes crashed on the sofa again. She met a load of dogs and she is absolutely perfect. She is an energetic little thing and definitely needs the morning walk and afternoon walk. I suspect from her behaviour that this might be what she is used to. However, when she gets back she is a couch potato.
The gentle on the tummy food has also worked a treat, shes completely better.
She is such an adorable little thing, a really easy dog.

Olivia to up date Princess's thread but have powerful thoughts for her as she nearly died today and is currently very carefully monitered over the next few days in a 24/7 hospital in case she suffers Peritonitis
