Hi i am Brandi the tricolor coon hound. I am a great hunter or I would have been had my first daddy not taken me out to hunt too soon. I got distracted and lost and somebody found me and took me to the pound. I waited but my daddy never came to get me. So the good people at Robdar's Houndsong Rescue and Sanctuary came and took me to a nice place to live for a while with other hounds and some kids and people. Then my next daddy adopted me but his first furkid did not like me and tried to kill me, taking a big bite out of my throat and i am still taking pills for this. I could not stay with my second daddy. Then, yesterday my new mommy and daddy showed up. We were all so excited, all us hounds wanted to go to our forever home forever.
They chose me because I am a special girl and very sweet and I love everybody especially kids, though I still have to work on manners around cats. I cannot be around rabbits because I was trained to hunt coon and rabbit they think and I howl and howl at the cage so I have to be kept away from the one they call Buttons. Mommy and daddy have taken me for walkies, and I am pretty good on a leash until I see other dogs or kids cause i want to go meet them and play then I get loud! So they say I need to learn a few more manners. I am trying though and I was so happy to be allowed to sleep in the bed last night. I parked myself right between them all night long. Once I even kicked my daddy off the bed! Heeheehee. I am a quick learner, yesterday they taught me to sit and shake paws, silly people! and I did it very well this morning, twice! I am very good when I am not distracted by smells or cats. Mommy says we have to work on that but she also says I am a very good girl too. Now If I would only eat my breakfast like a good girl she will be happy. I don't know why I won't eat, maybe I will be hungry later!
7 seeds of thought:
give her a hug for me!
Awww, Nickie, Brandi is so sweet and she's trying *so* hard!!! Bless you all for saving her and being so kind and patient.
I hope Brandi will have a good life with you as she deserves it so very much. She has had quite a bit of bad luck before but it seems to me, the tables are finally turned.
I hope she will start eating soon as I know what a worry that can be.
Good luck with your sweet girl and give her a big hug from me and the Bliss team!
My what big feets you have, Brandi! Our woofie brother Kesey is funny about eating too. He likes to have company. If we're eating, he eats. If Mommy stands there with him, he eats. If Mommy is not home, Daddy does not even bother feeding us anymore because Kesey will not eat. Brandi, we hope you get settled and are not as silly about eating as our woofie is.
Brandi, I bet you just have had too much excitement with this great new mommy and daddy of yours... once you settle down a bit, you'll be back to eating regularly again in no time. :) Congratulations to you and your new family!
Oh my! Such a pretty dog! Be sure to give her lots of treats!
Dear Brandi,
I hope you're eating better now, but if not tell your mom not to worry, because you're just adjusting. It's like me - I'm not eating much these last couple days either because I was away from home for a while and I'm adjusting too. I've even been here before, it's just that I was gone awhile and now I have to get used to things again.
Your new family sounds very nice and I'm so happy you were rescued. I was rescued too, only that was a long time ago.
Love, George
