Meet my latest addition
Schnapps is a 9 year old salt and pepper miniature schnauzer and came to live with me full time just this week.
I have had her off and on for a while to due her owners circumstances and have loved her since I first met her. She fits in well with with my brood, now consisting of 2 salt and pepper miniature schnauzers girls, 1 black miniature schnauzer girl and Alfie ( poor boy is very outnumbered)
Schnapps was my friends dog for 9 years but in the last few years her marriage has broken up, her elderly parents have become very unwell and her house is now being repossessed on top of a lot of other things and over the last year I have looked after Schnapps a lot to help out and let my friend get a break or go help her parents and a load of other things.
She is having to move into social housing and the will not accept pets and financially she is finding it very difficult to proved for Schnapps. I have offered to help out anyway I can to help her keep Schnapps but it is becoming increasingly difficult for her to manage.
She made the decision a few month ago that she was going to give Schnapps up and while I tried to help it didn't work out and she asked me if I would have her.
It wasn't an easy decision to make with having 3 dogs already but I couldn't see my wee Schnappy Lou go to live with anyone else so opened my door to her as she was already in my heart.
Took her to the vet for a general check over and some blood work as it has been a few years since schnappy last saw a vet. Blood work was fine but she needs to drop a few pounds which we are going to work on.
Its been an easy transition as I have looked after her so much and all the dogs get along well.
I am turning into a crazy dog lady.........
