Mazy’s mum wrote, “It is with a big hole in our hearts I sit and write this email you all at IRR. In November 2012 we traveled from Bonnie Scotland to Wales to collect our Mazy (Judy), today she went over Rainbow Bridge. She gave us 10 wonderful fun-filled years. She was a soft lovable girl and will be missed so much, especially by her big sister Bramble, our springer. Forever in our hearts, run free Maizy moo xx.”
MAZY’S HISTORY
Maizy is 13 weeks old. She was surrendered by her owners who found it difficult to cope with a puppy.
FOSTERER’S INITIAL REPORT: UK – APRIL 2012
Maizy arrived late at night and I took her for a walk in the garden and settled her down in a crate. She was quiet all night and when we awoke at 8am and she was still curled up in her basket. Our dogs were a bit excited to see her but they soon settled and they have been very gentle with her. She is now snuggled up with them fast asleep
Maizy is not interested in the cats or the parrot, although she seems to be very interested and alert in what you are doing. She is a lovely quiet and gentle girl who is still settling into her new surroundings.
FOSTERER’S 2nd REPORT – APRIL 2012
Maizy is growing fast and like a typical puppy is into everything. She is very confident with my dogs, she instigates most of the play fights.
Maizy loves her food and eats rather fast so I am trying so slow her down. She has had her 2nd vaccination now so she will be able to get out into the big world. The house training is going well; she’s not had an accident for about a week now. She doesn’t bark to go out but rather wanders near the door. Her fear of being groomed with the slicker has now gone and she is quite happy to allow me to use it.
Maizy’s commands are improving she will “sit”, “down”, “give a paw” and we are just learning “stay”. She knows her name; she understands “leave” and “drop” but does not always comply, just like any puppy. She does not like travelling, so this will have to be worked on slowly as she gets very stressed the minute the car door is opened. She will also refuse to walk between 2 parked cars, but is happy to walk past one car.
Whenever Maizy has met my grandchildren, even the toddler, there have been no problems. She is not too bad with cats, but if they run she thinks they want to play.
At night she is as good as gold and is used to sleeping in a crate. We think she is a lovely happy puppy and will be a very loving dog.
MAIZY HAS GONE TO HER FOREVER HOME: MAY 2012
Maizy is settling in just fantastically. She is asleep at my feet as I write.
She loves her walks, and last night when we went for a walk in the forest she and Bramble found the dirtiest, biggest puddle and jumped in!
UPDATE FROM MAIZIE’S FOREVER HOME: NOVEMBER 2012
Mazie’s getting a big dog now and is doing so well she won the puppy class competition at our local doggy show in the summer time.
