Old friends, new friends, all BTRC friends!

BTRC foster Daisy is one lucky girl. With alum Herb and Set for Life foster Stitch to show her the ropes, she is learning the joys of the outdoors.

Daisy met BTRC alum Chico on her travels and got some very good advice about what it means to be an alum and how to become one. He assured her she is well on her way as she seems to have already aced snuggling, respecting the cat’s boundaries and enjoying the company of other dogs. Her playtime skills are at an all time high too – she can keep up with her foster siblings which is not an easy feat!

We are always happy to see BTRC dogs unite – they are a reminder that we are all in fact, one big family. ❤

BTRC foster Daisy was understandably wobbly after arriving home from her spay and tummy tuck, but the FOMO was real!

The removal of excess skin on her tummy made quite the incision, and she had difficulty getting comfortable for a much-needed nap. Fortunately, BTRC foster Stitch had the magic touch, and she finally curled up beside him to rest.

As Daisy had an intermittent limp when she arrived to BTRC, an ortho specialist appointment has been scheduled. Though the limp seems to be resolved, we want to ensure no further treatment is needed at this time.

Daisy is being fostered in Halifax, NS, and is not yet ready for adoption.

 

Introducing Daisy

Daisy was purchased from an online classified ad. When her medical needs were more extensive than anticipated, BTRC brought her into our rescue program.

Daisy requires all routine vetting. She will be spayed, and given that she’s had at least a couple of litters, excessive loose belly skin may also need to be removed. Sort of like a combination boob reduction and tummy tuck, but no judgment – a girl has got to look her best!

Daisy also favours her left back leg, and her limping is probably due to a luxating patella. Often, this can affect both legs, so an upcoming visit to an ortho specialist will provide more information and a treatment plan.

Daisy has shown a couple of personality quirks, but overall, she is a friendly, well-behaved, and affectionate girl settling in well at her foster home.
