Re: Help!

Thank you Leashed for this information. Maisie was at the vets today for her check up with pups. I asked if they had heard any further from this puppy's owner but they hadn't so I assume all is well which is a great relief.

Amazing though. This attack looked so serious so how is it possible that the pup was unhurt? Didn't even appear to have any bruising either. I can't imagine what Maisie was thinking of.

Maisie was raised with lots of other dogs. Her previous owner has about 30 altogether and they all run around and socialised. I know I have only had Maisie for a month or so now but whenever we encountered other dogs she was always friendly and seemed happy to say hello. As I have said before she is a very sweet natured and gentle Airedale so it was a shock when she attacked this pup.

But I have taken great heed to everything that's been said and I will keep Maisie on a very short lead if we have to meet other dogs. This was especially put to the test this morning as there were a variety of dogs in the vets.

Good news is that Maisie's sire has a very good hipscore of 9 and has current eye tests that are clear.

I have a photo of him now and he is very handsome.

All this should, hopefully, help a lot when it comes to finding forever homes for her babies.
