RHANI

RHANI is probably about 9mths old and is now spayed and microchipped. She is probably a black lab x whippet judging by her shape and the speed with which she can move. She is an unwanted stray.

She is very affectionate and gets on very well with other dogs. She loves to play or just cuddle up with them. She totally ignored a cat when she came face to face with it.

She is very loving and cuddly. She is very loyal and prefers to be with you if she can. She seems to be bombproof with vacuums and other household noises but she is a bit timid of new situations. She settles well in a crate and cries to go out for toilet

Negative points.........she does still jump up, but she is as light as a feather, she does mouth a bit but, fortunately, in a gentle way, and she would chew things, if given the opportunity. She is housetrained but a new owner would need to be vigilant as it is, clearly, all new to her. In other words, she is a typical puppy.

          UPDATE ON RHANI
 
Pauline says "Well, I'm afraid we have done it again......we are failed fosterers for the 5th time!! "
 
"Rhani and Gizmo (our 2006 failure) get on like a house on fire and, both being hound crosses, they will run and run and run. Fortunately, we have a safe, private field where this is possible and it would be something that Rhani would find it very hard to do without."
 
"She is a cheeky little madam and she has brought new life to dear old Danny (our 2005 Irish failure). She is also loved to bits by Ricky & Eddie (our English failed foster brothers from 2001 and 2004)..........oh dear, what are we like!! "
 
"Rhani has made lots of new doggy friends to regularly run with, including Lola and Sammy (Lynne's IRR dogs) and she goes to training classes with her other very special Irish friends, Connie and Millie McAvoy."
 
"The original plan had been to buy my husband, Steve, something for his computer in the sales as his Christmas present but he totally fell for Rhani's charms and asked if I would consider adopting her for him instead. I, of course, didn't need asking twice and we are both delighted to have substituted a boring old electronic gadget for a delightful 4 legged pressie instead".
