hi all the westie (harry) as she is now called,has settled well,but wait,,,,the original owner who gave her away without a pause,,contacted the new owner (after 2 weeks) and said again he wanted her back,well the new owner said no way is she going back,and no way would he give her up(good for him) :wink: so he started to threaten him that he would find her and just take her :cry: the new owner then proceeded to tell the old one!! that he didn,t look after her and that she is happy now,so far no news,i know i should have taken everyone,s advice on getting her sighned over but the outcome would not have been in the dogs best interest,i believe i have done the right thing,,i am now dealing with the old one,because the new one is happy,,as is the dog (harry) :wink:
