Well done PP, so glad to hear Didi is safe now. Let us know if you manage a visit!

Here he is in the trap [attachment=4095] at home and then at the SPA [attachment=4094] later in the morning. He doesn't look impressed!

The vet will come and see him today and they'll also check for a chip or tattoo. Of course there's always the chance that he's not lost, simply another farm dog not fed well and left to wander  who has stumbled onto a good thing. But he doesn't behave like one.

I've heard it said (from a French friend) that in towns people fence their gardens to keep their dogs in and in the countryside they fence their gardens to keep dogs out!

He'll soon come out of his shell once he knows where his food comes from!
Hope he's not returned to a farmer that doesn't care.

I've everything crossed he comes out of his shell and finds a forever home where he can be happy.

Well done PP for being so caring and a big hearty thank you on behalf of Didi.

A quick update on Didi - he is settling in with his foster mum by the seaside (lucky boy!) and just in the last week he has started joining her on the sofa for a stroke. He still won't approach anyone else (human or canine) or even look for long at his fosterer, but does turn his head in her direction when she stops the caresses.
It has been agreed that I won't be seeing him again because he might associate me with his prevous life and it could set him right back again. I'm sad about this, but totally understand it.
It will be a very long road, but he is such a gentle soul, getting on well with another dog and a cat at home, plus his first doggy visitors, that his future life should be good.

Nice one PP

So rewarding, PP, knowing that you've enabled a dog to have a better future. Hope you can keep updated with his progress (and tell us, of course).

Aww that is so lovely to hear - well done for making that happen

Wonderful PP, so pleased to hear this!! You did a good job there! x
