After a horrendous fortnight where we lost our 2 poodles Harrison and Millie from sudden illness, Saffy arrived yesterday to fill the empty space. She is 6 years old and came from a breeder/hoarder with 60 poodles in a small house, kept in utterly squalid conditions. The poodles until they were seized had never been outdoors. Many of the boys have ingrowing lashes and all needed surgery on their eyes, as well as being neutered. Some of them are very traumatised and terrified and it will be a long time before they will be normal poodles.

Saffy appears to be not too bad very affectionate yes she is anxious and clingy but has spent most of today asleep under the desk. She is not house trained but will work on that.

So sorry for your losses. That’s heartbreaking.
Saffy’s lucky to have you. Sleepy and clingy makes perfect sense after what she’s been through. Just let her hide under the desk as long as she needs. The house training can wait a bit.
Go easy on yourselves. You’re doing a good thing.
