well wait for this.... cora has lost 5.5 lbs!! Im so chuffed. and she walked into the vets no fuss. was fed training treats by everyone in there and she was brilliant. we met up with nicky from spaniel trust in there ( small world or what?) and she was fair taken with cora. And a man who cora had never met came in, cora immediately went over to say hello. chuffed to pieces I am.. and she didnt bark once! the vet was so pleased with her. said she was a different dog.. couldnt believe the improvement in her and in such a short time. I mean 8 weeks really isnt that long a time to a dog whos had 3 and a half years of not so good homelife. By golly shes a bright spark.
