Well pawpals, have you noticed I haven't posted recently?? Course you have! Mum says she's sorry this is such a long post but there's a whole months worth to tell. It was that month ago Mum, Dad and I went on a big trip.
We drove for ages and stopped and some great places- including a 10 acre secure field where I ran my paws off and did lots of snoofering - Iuuuvvvs to snoofer - (Mum as usual forgot to take photos 🙄). We stayed overnight (wasn't allowed on the bed despite my best hangdog expression) but got sausage for breakfast🐶. Everyone we met said I was a handsome boy- as if it were ever in doubt.
In the morning we went and met some nice people called Lou and George, there was a lady dog who was kinda cute. We got ready to leave after a while and once I was in the car Mum put the other dog in to! I hoped we were heading for the secure field again but we went home and the other dog came all the way with us. Mum told me she was from Cyprus like me, she was to be called Roonagh and she was my new sister!
When we got home we played and played, I decided I liked having a sister.🐕🐕
The first 3 days were great then Roonagh started being horrid to me, growling, snarling and jumping at me when I tried to go to Mum for cuddles. I was awful sad 'cause I'm such a kind, soft boy so I went and lay in the garden. I didn't want to be in the house where Roonagh was being horrid to me.
Mum and I were upset but Mum said we had to try and help Roonagh be nice again 'cause she was just as upset and she was confused after all the things she'd been through. Now she had a nice family and she didn't want to share - not even with big soft me. I wasn't sure but Mum doesn't give in easily.
She asked for some help from the lovely Apollos Angel's people who rescued me and Roonagh. With some Pearl's of wisdom from them, helped by professional input from the very helpful Adam Dunn and some things Mum set up in the house to keep us all safe, we started trying to get Roonagh to love me again.
A month later things have progressed well and Roonagh and I are bestest friends nearly all the time now. Mum says there is still a way to go but she thinks we'll be fine. Me? I like having a sister again. More happy updates to follow. Love Phoenix🐾🐾
