She does have multiple problems but even before Prim went to her house, she had ordered a pocket for her to stay in when in the w/c and a special sling for the walker.
Well, Jadon called and said she wanted me to know that Prim had saved her life 3-4 times. Seems she sleep-walks and has been in some dangerous situations while asleep. Prim senses when she has stopped for too long and barks, jumps and HISSES to awaken her. Once was at the top of the stairs...
Stories like this make me know 110% for sure that re-homing these babies is the right thing to do. Another of mine is a seeing eye dog for a nearly blind dog..They just never cease to amaze me..There are more stories like this from every breeder..
What an awesome story, thank you for sharing Rini! I know that once I get my breeding program going, rehoming dogs is going to be one of the toughest things fo rme to do but as I read these stories on here I know that I will somehow find the strength to do it because it might not be what is best for me, but it will be what is best for them!
