Hi all,
i adopted my darling little leia from foa last december hear is our story. Two years ago i went with a friend who was going to buy a shih tzu puppy i didnt agree with buying from a breeder but went along with her to make sure she din't get conned and some how came home with a puppy ? apparently she was "no good" as she had a hernia and an overshot jaw so he was going to either going to sell her off cheap or take her to the pound to rehome so i threw him £50 and off i went with a puppy mr treehugger was NOT impressed. as time went on (about 8mths) chewy needed a friend mr treehugger said well lets look for a proper dog then not a fairy one. so know of all the staffy types in desperate need i found dp and hope rescue and started looking for staffy types to join our mad house. Again i am not quite sure how i ended up fostering for hope then one day whilst looking through the homes needed on dp i came across cinderella i knew instantly that i had to have her she had an over shot jaw and hernia and was surplus to requirements for the breeder exactly like chewy so after lot of sulking from mr treehugger he said well if you really want another fairy dog you can. so i harrased eileen and jan for at least two days with phone calls and e-mails and pm's and a week later cinderella came to join the mad house. She had to have a name change to fit in with the theme so she got called Princess Leia.
she makes me laugh every day and totally does not understand that she is a dog not a child she gives dirty looks and sulks when she cannot have her own way and if she could talk we are convinced she would say "oh no dear i am far too posh for that "or "you want me to do WHAT!!!!"
she refuses to eat stuff like sausages and will chew them up and spit them at you will do anything for a bit of ham and cryes for someone to pick her up when she cannot be bothered to walk anymore ( and someone usually me all ways does )
leia oftern comes with me to the hope events and refuses to sit next to the chavvy pound dogs
she is a total star and even mr treehugger who claims he doesn't like dogs has been known to sneak her in the front room for a cuddle of an evening
thank you eileen and jan for my wonderful little girl.
the spoilt and norty leia
when she first arrived
now she's a big girl well she thinks she is anyway
