SueM Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 Big improvements from Honey today, she is now not so glued to the couch, she tore out with the other dogs to my kitchen when it was time to feed them, tail wagging, a neigbour came over while I was outside with her and she ran over all be it cringing a bit for a pat, so all in all I am very happy with her progress she is improving at a great rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indigirl Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Sounds like she is settling in :) poor little thing would have been completely overwhelmed in the pound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueM Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Honey pics!! She is going great, has a touch of kennel cough so had to delay desexing for a week or two. For those who want to be updated regularly on her we have a facebook group :-) https://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/groups/tinydogrescue/ Edited August 15, 2012 by varicool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her Majesty Dogmad Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 She is gorgeous, how old do we think Honey is?

SueM Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Hi approx 2 looking at her teeth, she was vaccinated etc at the pound, but I am taking her for a drive to the vets Monday as I have a little one getting a dental and will get my rescue vet to give her an estimate, I want to get her used to. the vets surgery etc without anything bad happening before she goes back for desexing, she was literally screaming and growling the first night I had her here and I went near her, do not want her reverting back :-), will do Dogmad, I didn't contact you re her as she was in such a state she couldn't of travelled. Have never seen a purebred in the pounds up here thankfully. Edited August 15, 2012 by varicool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have never seen a purebred in the pounds up here thankfully. We take crosses two, if we have room and her behaviour that you describe is quite typical of an IG in that situation - it's why the RSPCA euth them and pounds as well. A sweeter dog you couldn't find but when they are scared, they act like that and people who don't know the breed naturally become worried and think they'll be bitten. It's really unfortunate, in an ideal world they'd never end up in that scenario but sadly we are seeing more and more of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueM Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Thats sad, I will keep an eye out up here. She of course was going to be euthanised for that exact reason. Do you want her sent down to you? She won't be able to until the kennel cough clears up, or are you happy for us to rehome her under your guidance :-) Edited August 15, 2012 by varicool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy to put her on our website but would like to chat to you when she's a bit better. We have rehomed a no. of Iggies to QLD and have a couple of homes waiting at the moment there.

SueM Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Ok once she is over the kennel cough, thankfully a mild dose I will give you a call if thats ok :-) Then she can be desexed and the hunt for the perfect home begins :-) I wasn't going to put her on pet rescue as I know I will get the usual influx of unsuitable homes, was just going to list her exclusively on your site :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueM Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Honey had a check up at the vets today, she was very well behaved and will be getting desexed next week, her patellas thankfully are 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueM Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 Honey is over her kennel cough and is being desexed tomorrow, I took a short video today to show how far she has come in a short time, she is still very wary of anyone but me, but she is improving, Carly my housemate got a lick today, she loves tearing around our large back yard as well.
