She has calmed down tons since we first brought her home. I just am begining to wonder how "truthful" her other owner was.
1. She said she isn't a lover and doesn't give kisses. (She was sitting on my lap and kissing me on the way home. Also kisses me occasionaly since she has been here.)
2. She LOVES to sleep in her crate during the day. At night she slept with them cause she couldn't handle the crying! (Hmmm, can sleep in a crate during the day, but not at night? They probably left her in there when they didn't want to deal with her.)
3. She's a huge DADDY's GIRL. (Barely leaves my side but loves my husband too)
4. She only goes to the bathroom when she pulls to almost choking and you walk her back & forth. (She does tend to pull right now, but I have yet to see her do that ritual)
5. Eats Beneful. (Won't even TOUCH it.)
6. Never eats human food or treats. (Seems to love the treats once she figured out they were a reward)

Overall, I am thrilled to have her. The cats are actually getting used to her and she is more afraid of them. I feel like I rescued her from her life since birth and she is responding well to the training. I gave her an oatmeal bath and she looks much fresher now. Taz will always be number one, but she is already running a close 2nd!!!

The vet also prescribed an ear cleaner solution, which she gave me. They also told her there was no infection or mites. I will still take her to my Vet to check her out. At least she supplied me with all vet records. She also didn't want to pay $500 for a total ear cleaning, where they put them out. I am going to have to wait a few weeks before I take her in though. I really should have waited to get her for a few weeks. (Too many bills, but I had to have her)!!!

Spay for $85.00, neuter for $75.00 teeth cleaning for $100.00 (all sedated) where do they come up with $500.00????????????:eek:
