Here is the whole gang from that weekend. Biff is the little guy and Katy is the one on the left. Gayla is, of course, the one with all the freckles looking less than pleased.
Well, they both went to their new foster and within a week it was requested that I take Katy back. She was being aggressive with the other foster puppies. I'm not certain who was being aggressive, but Katy came out of the ordeal with a couple of bruises for her efforts.
You can kind of make out the spot next to her eye and there is a similar one on the inside of her right ear and on the top of her head.
I specified that she is feral because she is incredibly skittish around humans. We've made great progress in the last couple of days - providing the human is sitting on the floor. If we get up and move around she quickly disappears behind a chair.
If you look carefully, there is a puppy behind that dinosaur. One room between her and humans? Check? Protected by a stuffed dinosaur? Check. Life is good.
Despite all her wariness, however, she is incredibly cute! Those ears! Aren't they just perfect? And she is slowly coming around. Yesterday I put her on the bed and hand fed her breakfast. After eating she not only dozed off, she actually leaned on me. My heart melted a little. How could it not?
Gayla is currently staying at Grammy's house, however. She is less than fond of the puppy. In fact, she tried to eat her. Now we can add that, in addition to children, Gayla doesn't like puppies. But that doesn't make her any less great as a dog! She'd really be the perfect pet for a person or family who's kids are in high school or gone. She's playful, loving and funny. She'd just prefer to be the center of your world. Gayla is available through PawsUp4Rescue.org. Shameless plug. But seriously, 6 months! Why won't anyone even meet this dog?!?
