Tia

Hello again, Tia here.
It’s a while since I have given you an update on my progress but now I am Dog-of-the-Month I thought I’d better get paw to paper again. Yes, treatment on my ears is continuing but they are much better. I was at my vet’s on Monday and she says that she can now see my right ear drum. That is progress indeed at first she could barely see anything down my ears, except masses of infection. My left ear is also much better but the ear drum isn’t yet visible. I’m still taking my Pred (medicine) like a good girl, and I have Canaural put down each ear and then massaged in twice a day. I still love it and my personal grooming sessions. My ears are so much more comfortable, too, and despite all this, all the treatments and the poking and prodding down my ears by all and sundry I have never done so much as curl my lip.

 
Living here is pretty good. I am allowed off the lead in the fields now because I don’t even look at the sheep over the wall. I enjoy running around and my foster mum has bought one of those tennis ball throwing things. I am getting quite good at bringing the ball back and swapping it for a Gravy Bone. Even without the ball my Gravy Bone Recall is excellent, even if I say so myself. I can also do a snappy sit if food is offered; it’s less snappy if there is no food but I still do it. If any of you are looking for a dog for obedience, with a little training I’m your girl. My foster mum says she might take me to agility as well if she gets the chance as I am light on my feet, very nimble and keen to please.
I have to say that we Danes don’t come much easier than me to live with: kind and gentle inside and out, calm and quiet in the house, house trained, non-destructive, great with people and animals, excellent on lead and obedient .... I could go on. There’s got to be someone out there for me.
