Contessa…found wandering the streets scared and confused
Let us introduce Contessa.
She is a lady in her later years. She was found wandering the streets scared and confused. Her skin and fur were in terrible conditions. She has since been on hypoallergenic food and this has really helped to clear up everything.
So my foster mum says I’m just perfect, even with everything I’ve been through I’m very trusting and confident. I would be happy with other friendly dogs or on my own as that would mean more cuddles for me. I settled in really quickly and soon stole everyone’s hearts.
I may be 8 years and 3 months old and only dinky, but my nickname is “pocket rocket” as I’ve learned how to fly up and down the stairs. I still can’t jump on the sofa but I love to be picked up and to lay by your side for cuddles and to play, I especially like playing ball in the garden and have no issues letting people taking toys from my mouth. I’ve been on a few short walks and I love to mooch along sniffing as I go. I met some other doggies but I didn’t pay any attention to them and just kept walking.
I’m fully house trained, quiet, and don’t bark very often. I’m happy to be left alone when my family pop out. When they are home my foster mummy calls my “shadow” as I love to follow her around. I eat special kibble as the nasty food I ate on the streets made my skin itch, but it’s under control and apparently I’ve got lovely soft fur which dosent smell or shed, I don’t mind being brushed but I will need to go to the poodle parlour to be trimmed every once in a while.
Contessa will need to be on hypoallergenic food for the rest of her long life.
