Update on the puppy I collected today...

[trt]

She is lovely and a cross between a terrier and a Chiwaha. (sorry about the spelling)

When I got home with her she spent nearly 2 hours exploring my bungalow and was very excited.

She was brought into the vets by the RSPCA who it was reported to by a social worker that she was sick and in pain on a travelers site. It was discovered that she had swallowed two rubber dummy teats and was operated on and nearly died.

Anyway she is in safe hands now and biting my toes, licking my face off and is showing so much affection.

Will send a photo when I get the time, she is lovely!!!!

Never worry about the glass Alex - tis the epitome of perpetual motion. it is the bottle(s) I have to keep an eye on!

How old is your puppy trt?

[tastymorsel]

can't wait for photo.God bless you for taking her in.I can't stand any form of of cruelty but some sick b@st@rds love it

[starone]

Poor little thing. I can't have animals myself, but I would not see cruelty to any of them. Thank goodness for the rescue team and so glad that you were able to take her.

Oh lovely trt!...........sure you'll have lots and lots of fun together!.......

[Postdog]

it's chihuahua btw

[trt]

She is 6 weeks old and very tiny.
I bought a nice bed for her tonight and she will sleep in the kitchen so she cant wreck my furniture.

As she was exploring tonight she got tangled up in the closed french window vertical blinds which was so funny as she tried to escape.

I was going to call her Fergie or Alex after the Man Utd manager who I have supported since I was a kid and where I was brought up, but now live in Newmarket, what do you think?

[what..the?]

ahhh bless

[craft1948]

Lexie is nice............

[trt]

Any names welcome.

[mrs.chappie]

Hiya Ron. She sounds adorable. Great to hear that she's now gonna have a loving home.

[slinkycat]

You will have so much fun with her:-) She must be very tiny at 6 weeks! Just a warning, do you have any open ended, base unit shelves in your kitchen? My pup mangled the edges of ours,we'd only replaced the kitchen 18 months before! Still love him though:-)

[mrs.chappie]

PS: Don't feed her that awful Chappie dogfood. :o)

[Buenchico]

She came from a 'traveller' background, so I looked here for possible names:

Two-syllable names often seem the easiest for dogs to learn, so I'd be looking at 'Dika', 'Donka', 'Tsura' (which I like), 'Kizzy' (which somehow seems to suit a small dog) or (most definitely my favourite) 'Simza'.

[mrs.chappie]

I quite like Bella.
