This lunch time I called and collected Suki from her new owner who had really struggled to make things work but it wasn't quite the right time for them to take on a dog and perhaps one not quite so bouncy as Suki.
She happily jumped in the back of our car and settled with Indi for the drive home. Arriving home we introduced her to the others in the garden then brought her in the house, but still on the lead to show her around. As she was quite anxious we tied her lead to the hook in the kitchen near the fire where we placed a dog bed and after a few minutes of watching the others she settled on the bed and went to sleep while we were busy doing our work in the kitchen.

Suki was adopted today by her new owner who came and collected her on their way up to the Annual Dumfriesshire & Cumbria Greyhound Rescue Christmas Fayre, which this year was being held at Gretna. Suki's new owner had lost her Dolly at the end of August following a tragic accident and although Suki will never take Dolly's place she will able to give her new owners the love Dolly can no longer give her.

We received an email today from Suki's new owner enclosing a couple of photographs of her enjoying the snow. They say Suki is doing fine and she liked it when the snow was thick on the ground - she had a good old play!
They took her to the vet this morning because she started nipping the old scar on her side and broke the skin. The vet checked it out and prescribed some steroid cream for her to try for 7 days. After this, if it doesn't stop biting at it she will have to wear an Elizabethen collar to give it chance to heal.
