Re: Rhianna, Cross x Staffie, 5 years old

Rhianna's part-time fosterers took her on a four day break with them. Their circumstances mean they can't have a dog full-time so they take this girlie for break and weekends where they can to give her a break from kennel life. They would dearly love Rhianna to find a forever home. Here is their update:

We are back from our lovely holiday in Devon. Rhianna once again has proved herself to be a fabulous dog.

There were 6 of us on our trip including a friend who is nervous of dogs and she was fabulous with everyone.

We had lots of lovely walks on the beach. She was so desperate to run that we took the plunge and let her off the lead. So wish we had done it loads earlier as she is fab. She never lets you out of her sight. Her recall is pretty good these days, perfect if you have a ball in your hand. She played and played on the beach with balls. Poor thing is still not the fittest, her mind wants to go on but her body just wont run any more!!

She still isnt the biggest fan of other dogs but its not an issue. If a dog comes over we just pop her back on the lead for a bit while she has a growl and then let her off as soon as they leave her alone. She never goes after dogs she just doesnt want them sniffing her bottom.

The signs with the crate are pretty good as well. She cries much less at night time with the crate, in fact she slept right through the night. It could just have been that she was sooo tired from all the running on the beach, we will see if it still helps with her separation anxiety at home.

We are going to have her as many days as we can but unfortunately we cant keep her out of kennels all the time. Wish we could. I cant tell you how much Seb and I have fallen for gorgeous little Rhianna.
Anyway time for the photos, I warn you there are lots but she was so easy to photograph off the lead.






Rhianna with all her new friends.
