Bringing Deedee home

We picked Deedee up from Impawtant Puppy Rescue on Saturday 21st January.  The first time I set eyes on her it was love at first sight.  She is gorgeous and so loving.  Emma from Impawtant kindly gave us the time to sit and get to know her a bit, and show Tiffany how to handle her.  Kimmy and Tilly did not take to her at all and did not want to know.  Kimmy the border collie was a little more tolerant but Tilly would not entertain her in anyway!  John took all three for a bit of a walk with Tiffany and Emma's husband, out of the house and on the lead they were a bit better.

Impawtant Pups Puppy Rescue are great, they give their home over to puppies needing new homes and rescue pups from pounds all over the country, Deedee came originally from Coventry.

We had borrowed a crate for the car journey back, but as she had never been crate trained we abandoned it as a bad plan and she sat in the back between Tiffany and I instead.  After a bit of messing around she finally settled and went to sleep all the way home!

Once home, Kimmy was indifferent but Tilly really was not happy.  Deedee however, was wonderful with the cat, probably because my cat is not scared of the dogs in the house and does not run, just stood her ground looking at her, definitely do not think there will be any problems with those two.

John slept downstairs on the couch the first night as we did not know how settled Deedee was going to be.  She had him up for the toilet at 4am!

We are so surprised how well behaved and confident she is for a puppy, she asks to go out when she needs to, she sits on command and is very attentative.  She is also very loving and gives great cuddles as per the picture with my daughter Kirstie.
