CASSIE
(Went to the Bridge 07.01.09)

FIRST REPORT

Cassie is an 11 year old golden retriever. She is currently in foster care and is quite settled and relaxed, she is so gentle and sweet natured. There is not a
peep from her all night long and she loves her bed.

She is not as wobbly on her feet now but still remains stiff on her back legs. You only have to rattle the lead and she is at your feet. She loves to go out for a little walk and will soon tell you when she’s had enough as she lies on the floor and will not budge, so she would be ideal for a more mature person.

She is fine with the cats and will happily sleep beside them.

Cassie and Ben were not as close as we had believed they would be. In fact, Ben only had eyes and a lot more for the young female in the house so both she and Cassie were much more relaxed and happy when Ben went to another foster home.

Cassie has now gone to her forever home to live with Di, Rob and Bella where she even had Christmas presents waiting for her.
They were delighted with her and hopefully she will give Bella a new lease of life and company.



FIRST REPORT FROM HER FOREVER HOME

Di and Rob said, “Thought you'd want to know how Cassie has been so just a quick update. She's settling in well and had a really good night, not a sound out of her all night. She slept most of the evening as well, think she's exhausted after Xmas (I know how she feels!). She went in and out of the dog flap several times with encouragement, following Bella, so it won't be long before she feels independent enough to do it for herself.



She ate her breakfast this morning, wandered round the garden, had a little play with one of her Xmas presents and is now fast asleep again, snoring happily.
We'll all be off on a nice exploratory walk later when it's less icy outside - then she can see her new neighbourhood and hopefully meet some of the other
local dogs and their people. Will keep you posted of her progress.”

“Cassie’s new found happiness was short lived and she has sadly passed over to the Rainbow Bridge”.
