Shes gone




Penny, formerly Finn, the Rotty has only been here a few weeks and really made herself at home, as you can see. She didn't put a paw wrong, in fact she was less trouble than several members of the magnificent seven.

She has changed from a cowering timid dog to a confident and happy hound that loves company. Today she moved out, packed her collar, lead and bowl and met her new family who wanted a second dog to keep their huge German Shepherd cross Golden Retriever company. If you wonder what a dog like that looks like, just like a German Shepherd, massive and the colour and temperament of the Golden Retriever. Gorgeous dog.


Anyway Penny and he hit it off straight away. Penny behaved very well, didn't pull her new owners arm off when she took her for a short walk. So we said goodbye and handed over the care of this lovely Rotty to a new family. It was surprisingly difficult to say goodbye to Penny, she has learned to trust us and perhaps people again. I had great reservations about looking after a Rottweiler, especially as we have so many free range beasts here at Rock HQ but she was great. It just shows you, there is nothing wrong with any dog, its the people that look after them.

Good luck to Penny and her new family.
