My nannan is getting another doggy :)

Jane · 26-09-2007, 07:38 PM

Well, yeah..

My nannans dog, Bess, who was about 14 had to be put to sleep on the 6th August this year. She is missed by all of us and will never be replaced but my nannan and grandads home just isn't the same without a dog and it's obvious they're not really that happy without one...

Went to my nannan earlier and only chatted for five minutes so don't know the full story

anyway, they went to visit a rescue the other day and all the other doggies were barking..but not him...soo, they went to see him

apparently, in my grandads words, he is a border terrier crossed with a walking rug

He is currently named Clyde (but they are thinking of changing that - if anyone can come up with some suggestions after I've finished describing him that would be great

) because he had a friend called Bonnie but she was adopted and he was left behind..my nannan says he is a bit off his food at the moment and is pining for her but hopefully with some love and patience from them he will be happy again soon

He is two years old...oh and he's brown apparently

They are having a homecheck friday night and if all goes well (which I'm sure it will..don't see why it wouldn't

) they will be bringing him home on Saturday

Ahhh I'm so excited for them lol

Any ideas what this doggy could look like?? Don't laugh but I have no idea what a border terrier even looks like

(am going to google in a sec XD)

So yep..thought I'd tell you all

Jane

edit: oooh, borderdawn's dogs are border terriers aren't they??

awww, so nice that they've decided to take on a wee rescue dog! I hope they are all very happy together.

Jane · 26-09-2007, 08:50 PM

I can't wait hehe

Their previous two dogs (Bess, and their dog before which died about 14 or 15 years ago Benji) were rescue dogs so yeah

Elaine · 26-09-2007, 09:13 PM

Isnt it border terriers that Borderdawn has? That might give an indication of what he looks like.

Bless the poor doggie, I hope he and your nannan will be very happy xxx
