12•12•25 - My family (parents and brother) recently adopted beautiful Holly, a golden cockerpoo, from pretty horrid conditions. Unfortunately I cannot go into detail currently, but she will only know love from now on 🩷
I first met holly through a work alongside a large quanity of other fur babies. If I could have saved them all I would, but unfortunately I dont own a farm (yet) 🙄. Holly was one of the more nervous dogs: didnt know how to walk on a lead, backed away from any noise or initial interaction, but was the sweetest soul. Since she moved in with my family shes remained the same, but the small wins are what makes it all worth it. We've had a few tail waggs! Shes had lots of baths to decrease the urine stench, shes been on walks although tip to avoid if youre in a rush 😂 Shes slowly learning to trust, and that a raised leg doesnt mean physical harm. We've had a few warning nips to my dog, who amazingly ignores her completely, but i sort of expected this. Shes gone from probably never being in a comfortable home before to so many new things, rules and what she is/isnt allowed to do. Holly is only the 2nd adult dog I have managed to help rehome, but damn its a lot of work 😂😂
As always, I salute any rescues doing this permanently as well as all veterinary staff who help care for the babies. Sometimes I feel they go extremely under appreciated, but who would be here when your dog raides your mince pies! 🙃 I hope you all have a lovely christmas and new year 🎄❤️
