The little Welsh springer has arrived, quite a bit later than expected because of the floods in Wales, let's just say the transport was delayed by several hours because of them.

She is petrified of almost everything but she has let me close enough to stroke her head, she is currently in the kitchen, stinks of pee and has huge matts but I want to just let her settle until at least tomorrow when we'll try to tidy her up and give her a good check up.
For a dog that is meant to be used to running around some land free with other dogs when she met mine you would have thought she was about to be murdered, it's a good job she was on a strong slip lead that she couldn't get out of cause I think we wouldn't have seen her for dust, my boy's just backed off and gave her space and although they have peeked at her around the kitchen door are giving her lots of space.

Anyway I'll get pics tomorrow but she needs a name, any suggestions?

she's been for a short walk with Ollie had a minor panic attack at the end of the road and then with a little encouragement kept walking, the only thing I've been able to tempt her with is some sea biscuits from fish 4 dogs so looks like I'll be placing an order on Monday for a large amount of these, will try her on the sea jerky tomorrow.

She's very scared of the crate so tomorrow I'll expect you'll find me sitting in a large dog crate with lots of fish 4 dogs sea biscuits, oh God the picture that brings to mind laugh.gif laugh.gif

Somehow she seems to have got stuck with Mimi, I don't know how, it just popped into my head and it seems to have stuck.

She was as quiet as a mouse in the kitchen last night, not a peep out of her, a teensy bit more confident on her early morning walk with the other three and she seems to have taken to Rob, although as far as we know she was rough handled by a man she seems to be more used to them and she took a little food from his hand this morning.

It is the saddest thing in the world to me when you can see a dog that so desperately wants to rust someone but hasn't quite got it in them yet sad.gif

Soubds like she'll do fine in you care, I know it;s early days but I doubt she could be with a better person. Wish I could help out with dogs, like this, but currrently working hours in the winter wouldn't permit.
Can't wait to see the photos.

Mimi photos, as you can see she is an ESS who came from Wales, she is not a Welsh Springer, sorry if i confused anyone ph34r.gif

Photos not brill cause I took them from some distance away and around a corner as I didn't want to frighten her.
