Hi everyone, just to give u an update on Becky. Had her back to the vets today for a weight check, and all is good i'm pleased to say !  When i took her there 10 days ago she weighed 30.1 kg, today, she weighs 33kg,so we're heading in the right direction and the vets happy with her progress and says she looks good ! She was also pretty well behaved in the vets considering, and only had a couple of grumbles at some particularly gobby dogs !    I was very proud of her !!

On the bonding side, Becks and i went in the 'secure' field again last night and again i let her off the lead, only the second time since i brought her home as her recall isnt that good yet. But the last few days she's been great in the garden and coming back virtually straight away so i thought we'd see how far she's come on.  She was a dream and she absolutely loved being off the lead ! I walked her around it and through all the bracken so she could get used to the smells before going wild, and wild she did ! She ran the length and bredth of the field several times over and was knackered as we trotted back home ! But when i called her, although not first time every time, pretty much and she didnt look like she was going to bolt, as even when i let her go quite far, she kept looking back to make sure i was there !

So all in all i think we're getting there  

That's great news Debs. You want to do the adoption paperwork on Saturday?

What u mean saturday just gone??    lol, yes i think that would be an idea, as long as ur happy that she's happy with me?   or even during the week if u want me to help out at the farm or a1?

Ha Ha, means I can remove Home Trial. I'll let you know whats happening during the week, still need to fully assess the newbys

She's a beaut isnt she, and filling out nicely, she's an awesome sight when she runs, have some more pics will try and download them     And sorry, she's hard work at times, but she's mine, legally, ask steve lol  

Ha Ha, yes Deborah, she is  

this lil princes does noy seem like a dog aggressive dog lol

eeeerrrrrrrr butter wouldn melt lol

Hi all u Becky lovers, just to give u an update on my girl. Had her back to the vets today for a weight check, via newcastle and a half hour wait in the car. She was a dream today and i've been soooo proud of her!!   We were kept waiting in the vets for 45 minutes and Becky was calmer than i was! She sat and even lay down not even a leg lengths distance from an old collie lab cross, never growled once the whole time we were there ! I was so disappointed tho, she'd only gained .8kg, i was expecting her to be abt 35kg, tho the vet thinks abt 34 might be her perfect weight as she's not far off and she's pleased with her progress.

Tonight on our last walk at 9 i knew there'd be lots of people about so i took some little pieces of pork out with us. I was so proud as she walked past 'the old boys' and their dogs, 4 dogs in total, on the opposite side of the road but in her sight, and didnt' get in the slightest confrontational, she noticed them three times, but i gained her attention straight back, even after i gave her her reward once we'd passed, and she never looked back once! I was soo proud of her! Doesnt sound like much, but last night she nearly had my arm off as we walked past ! I will try and upload some photos of her and would like peoples opinion. I think she looks pretty much perfect, not underweight still, but i'm not a rottie expert, what do u think?
