So Kathy from the rescue text yesterday saying a woman would be interested in Judy if she is good with cats so I'm going to go down to Lee's (another dog fosterer) tomorrow to test her with her cats who live with dogs so won't be too frightened to see a dog. Unfortunately I'm not too confident it will go well as Judy is a typical JRT but lets hope for the best because a great home has been found for her if shes good with cats. If not we'll just keep waiting and hopefully the other man who I spoke about in my last blog will still want her when he moves into his new home.
I've just flead and wormed Judy as I didn't know if she'd already been done, the worm tablet went down nicely in a bit of cheese but like every other dog she wouldn't take it on it's own but to be honest neither do humans.
Judy is doing great although I have started to call her Jude now more than Judy... not that it matters since she's deaf and doesn't hear you saying her name. Judy is getting more and more protective as she get's closer to me and will growl at my dog if she jumps on my bed. Sally being the little wimp she is is shying away at this and will act very nervous around her which I don't think helps the situation cause Judy knows she's getting her way. I'm trying to stop the growling by giving a hands up signal which I'm trying to train her to mean stop. Lee also gave me a tip the other day as to how not to startle her when she's asleep so I tried that today. Just putting my hand in front of her nose so she knows I'm there and it does work and she doesn't get so startled.
So lets hope for the best tomorrow with the cat test,
Lucy and Judy
