Apparently the vet opened the spay site to find infection and aspects that needed 'tidying' also there was some reaction to the type of suture material used. So Suzi is back with Karen; in the warm on antibiotics and pain killers. We will need some one to help her Thursday or Friday as Karen is going away and we would very much like to avoid kennels until her ten days post op is up.

Suzi ate and slept well last night. She is still a little wobbly but has been out in the garden this morning and had her breakfast Laughing

The best news of the day is that she is going to up grade to Jilly's on Thursday, after her vets appointment Laughing

Cannot thank Jilly enough for coming forward for her and seeing her through her recovery Laughing

What kind words Karen, an upgrade hmmmm, I don't think that could be possible seeing the care you have given her. I will just try and be as good with her as you have been. She looks a lovely little girl and I cannot wait to meet her.

Heading for a full recovery and then I am sure there is a fantastic forever home out there right now just waiting for her to be healthy and ready.

We will get her to be a big strong girl and to be loved and cared for in the way she, like so many others, truly deserve.

Sadly Suzi woke up with a bit of a cough this morning - hardly surprising after everything she has been through. We went to the vet for her check up and her plaster has been removed. She is slightly more swollen than we hoped but everything is intact and she is healing well. She will have to have at least another 7 days crate rest and another check up. While we were there she was microchipped as well.

She has been given some different antibiotics which will help with her cough as well.

Having said that she has been on great form today and we all stole some extra cuddles with her. Jilly picked her up this evening and as I type, Suzi is travelling to her new foster home. She was very happy to meet Jilly and give her cuddles so I am sure she will have a lovely time - we will all miss her but are very happy for her to be with Jilly where she will get all the love and attention to see her through the next stage Laughing

What do you mean "if they could talk" Sharon tut tut.

Suzi travelled beautifully in the car. Straight into her crate on arrival after the journey. Toilet break and something to eat and very soon, after a chat she fell asleep.

She told me to thank Sebastian and Rhianna as well as Karen and John for making her first week with RR so special. She said they were very loving and looked after her very well and Scooby.

So now to sleep to dream of being all better and healed. Ahhhhhhhhhh sweet dreams.

As little Suzi has kennel cough, like her pal Iris, she was unable to mix with the pack yesterday. The thought of all day and night in her bedroom in a crate with just toilet breaks is not good enough for one of our girls so an executive decision was made by me last night. Armed with doggy blanket and an understanding husband, I decided to sleep in the spare room with Suzi.

I wouldn't normally encourage a foster dog on a bed but little Suzi is recovering from surgery, coughing, not too bad but its there, and newly with us. So we donned our pyjamas and hit the sack together. She slept brilliantly. Had to still have her dog neck protector - lampshade- thing on - technical word - but she still slept soundly. ( I however had nightmares I was being attacked by a lampshade).

This morning kisses given in the garden at 6 am toileted and back to her normal crate while I began the rounds with the rest of the pack.

Suzi is a little darling. You look at these little mites asleep in your arms and just wonder how have you lost your home. She sits down next to you and then shifts her bottom closer until she is touching you, head pressing into you.

Her eyes look like she has dark eye liner on and she is truly beautiful- Inside and out.

She is a joy and I stress again she is very thankful to Karen and family for the lovely beginning they gave her. She waved goodbye to them but will never forget them in her heart ( she told me that as well Sharon).

So at least she is getting total attention at night. Toilet breaks and cuddles during the day but most important she knows she is loved by many.

Little Suzi had a lovely day today. Things definitely looking up. She is truly probably the sweetest dog I have ever had, (Mine excluded obviously). She is so loving to everyone. Visitors today she just runs around loving everyone making sure none of us get jealous. She shares her love.

Happily took her neck lampshade off yesterday and she is so much happier without it. No licking and am sure her scar is healing nicely. Her cough is still there but nothing too bad. She is just a bundle of joy and nothing gets her down.

Is very good in her crate when resting and now goes loose in the garden gently enjoying sniffing where all the other dogs have been. Sadly cannot mix with them which is such a shame because she gets on so well with other dogs. She loved Scooby at Karen's.

A sheer joy of a dog. Lovely lovely girl
