Hello Foster Mummy Pat<\/p>\n

I hope you like my photo of me with my special friend Minnie Mouse – she’s much bigger than me but I like sleeping under her particulary when I can arrange myself on my back with all legs in the air.<\/p>\n

I have just had my second check-up with the vet man who is very kind to me. He says I still have an ear infection and so must now have another course of anti-biotics – different to last time. He also cleaned out my anal glands – thank goodness! They were really giving me gip.<\/p>\n

I have got used to my routines now and enjoy myself – or sleep. Sleeping is something I do quite a lot of because I am an elderly lady but I do have two walks every day, mostly with my dad. On Thursdays I do the the paper delivery round with mum and dad and two\/three times a week I go on the Age Concern bus which dad drives. It’s fun meeting all these new people on the bus who all make a fuss of me. I also visit and ‘aunt and uncle’ who are in their 90’s so are elderly like me.<\/p>\n

I have got used to going down the garden on my own although I like to see that mum or dad are waiting at the door for me and I have found a way of letting them know when I need to go out so that the house is clean and dry. Bit of a nuisance that I don’t bark and I have no way of letting anyone know why.<\/p>\n

If you would like to come and see me you will be very welcome.<\/p>\n

Love Missy.<\/p>\n

Dear Helen<\/p>\n

She has settled in exceedingly well enjoying physical contact with whoever is ready to rub her tummy or tickle her ears.
\nShe has been on the AgeUK bus and loves the elderly passengers who are only too ready to make a fuss of her;
\nmany of them have had dogs before and miss owning one now.
\nShe takes a leisurely walk each morning (helping with the once a week paper round) to get the joints moving and has a more energetic one in the afternoon.
\nEvenings are for eating and napping and bedtime means a lovely snuggle up to ‘dad’ on his bed.
\nShe enjoys being brushed and groomed – just another excuse for lots of fuss!!
\nHope the attachment is sufficient for your needs but let me know if I need post the original.
\nKind regards
\nLinda Hollows and Tony Miles<\/p>\n

DEAR FOSTER MUMMY PAT<\/p>\n

JUST TO LET YOU KNOW I AM WELL SETTLED IN AND HAVE BEEN LOTS OF
\nPLACES. I VISITED THE STROKE CLUB AND MET LOTS OF PEOPLE WHO SEEMED
\nTO LIKE ME AND STROKED ME AND I LOVED THIS. I THEN WENT DOWN TO THE
\nBEACH FOR A WALK WITH MY DAD – NOT TOO KEEN ON THE WIND IN MY FACE BUT
\nWAS OK GOING IN THE OTHER DIRECTION. I MANAGED THE STEPS UP AND DOWN
\nTO THE BEACH WITHOUT ANY TROUBLE BUT I DON’T SEEM TOO KEEN ON THE
\nSTAIRS IN THE HOUSE.<\/p>\n

I ALSO DID THE ONCE-A-WEEK PAPER ROUND WITH MUM & DAD – QUITE GOOD FUN
\nWALKING UP AND DOWN PEOPLE’S GARDEN PATHS. HAVE ALSO VISITED A COUPLE
\nOF OTHER HOMES WITH DAD WHERE EVERYBODY SEEMED TO LIKE ME.<\/p>\n

I LIKE THE CONSERVATORY IN THE AFTERNOON WHEN THE SUN COMES IN AND I
\nSTRETCH OUT ON MY BACK AND LET THE SUN WARM ME UP. I HAVE DECIDED
\nTHAT I LIKE AN EVENING MEAL BUT THERE IS ALWAYS A FEW DRY BITS LEFT
\nOUT SHOULD I NEED A QUICK SOMETHING DURING THE DAY. THERE’S A SOFT
\nBALL AND A SMALL TEDDY FOR ME BUT I HAVEN’T GOT INTO PLAY MODE YET.<\/p>\n

THOUGHT I MIGHT GET AWAY WITH DOING QUICK PEE OUTSIDE DOOR BUT DAD
\nSOON CAUGHT ON AND NOW I AM TAKEN TO THE END OF THE GARDEN. HOWEVER,
\nHAVE DECIDED THERE ARE LOTS OF LOVELY SMELLS HERE SO DON’T MIND THAT I
\nHAVE TO WALK BACK TO GET TO MY BED.<\/p>\n

I HAVE A MORNING AND AN AFTERNOON WALK – BIT STIFF GETTING STARTED BUT
\nOK AFTER A WHILE. OFF ON THIS THING CALLED A ‘MINI BUS’ THIS
\nAFTERNOON – HOPE I LIKE IT. WILL LET YOU KNOW. MY DAD HAS YOUR EMAIL
\nAS WELL AND HE MAY WRITE TO YOU AS WELL. NEED TO HAVE A NAP NOW. LOVE
\nMISSY<\/p>\n

Missy has now found a home !!<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Missy went to her new home today and wasted no time at all in getting
\ncomfy on the sofa and having a little nap x sweet dreams missy x<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Missy,Zander and Lucky hogging the sofa – older dogs make great pets!<\/p>\n

The beautiful Missy is a little gem to have around and great with other dogs but as yet not to be trusted of the lead as she has no recall but is learning her name,
\nshe is developing a personality more every day and is to be found in her basket paws in the air asleep on her back.
\nMissy is around eight years old.<\/p>\n
