Hey everyone, I just got an Adult 2 yr old female a few days ago. I don't think the owners did their part with her. They said she was UTD on shots, Rabies, and given K9 Advantage. Well her rabies tag reads 2009, when I got her groomed they found a tick on her. So this just makes me think that none of the things they told me were true. She flinches when I lift my hand to pet her indicating she was hit frequently. I feel really bad for her. I'm going to take her to the vet tomorrow and have her checked out. I posted a comment about her ears in another thread but they are flopping and I'm guessing because the people before didn't cut the tips properly, because they appear like they are trying to stand. Groomer left them long, so should I bother clipping the ends or let them stay floopy.

Also I have a male Boston, she will play with him randomly but sometimes she will growl at him. So I'm confused on her behavior...
