  Just to update you all.  I found a beautiful little girl named Susie to hopefully be a companion for Amy.  Unfortunately it did not work out, Amy was very territorial and showed quite a lot of aggression towards the gentle little visitor.  Such a shame because she really would have made a lovely 2nd pet.  I think Amy is destined to be a very spoilt only doggie. 
 There was a happy ending for Susie, she has now found a very happy new home, with a lovely cosy lap to snuggle on.
 
 Thanks so much everybody for your thoughts and input.
