Kerri is a 4 year old ex breeding girl at Many Tears who I am fostering. She was reserved for a couple who sounded lovely but they changed their minds today without even seeing her, so she is available for adoption again through no fault of her own. (I am having one of those days!) Her thread is locked that is why I have started a new one
She is a sweet little girl who is very good natured. She arrived with me 3 weeks ago with sores on her back + ear. Both of which have healed up lovely.
She is putting on weight as she was rather thin when she first arrived. Loves her food - takes treats gently out of your hand and lets you put food in her bowl when she is eating. Loves the company of other dogs.
She is still very frightened + will not come to see people who have come into the house. But she will come to me now and tail wags when she sees me. She howled yesterday morning along with Poppy to tell me they wanted their breakfast. That was the first time she has made a sound in 3 weeks! It was good to hear
She is petrified of going a walk at the moment but we are working on this. As soon as you put a lead or harness near her she cowers down + shakes. She still will not come for cuddles or to be petted as she thinks she is going to be hit. If you go to clap her she hangs her head + shakes. She will run if you make a quick movement around her.
(Kinda who I adopted is still like this too. )
She will need to go to a home where someone is around most of the time to let her settle in and begin to trust and love. It will take a lot of time, love and patience but through time she will love you back and make a wonderful pet.
(Will get some up to date pics when she will let me! Her + Kinda both had to have their hair cut short as it was all urine stained which was irritating their skin making them claw out clumps of hair. Plus no matter how much I bathed them I couldn't get rid of the smell
)
