JUDY COMES FOR A VISIT 14 NOVEMBER 2008

Maureen writes: Judy is coming to stay with us for a week! Look! No lumpy leg joints! Judy will be 15 on Boxing Day. The improvement in her is amazing! She trots around quite vigorously for such a senior girl, bends her legs like a normal dog now and is such a happy little animal to be inside where it's warm. She's loved and respected for the fine Airedale that she is. I'm rather gorgeous these days! Sitting pretty I would have kept Judy myself. It's hard not to fall in love with a dog who has suffered so greatly and yet wags her tail constantly and adores people so much. A pensive moment Unfortunately, our Murpheeee did NOT fall in love with Judy, too. They really rubbed each other the wrong way so Judy moved on to a permanent foster home nearby. Her foster parents think she's wonderful! Last time I visited them, Judy was sitting on Tom's lap . . . . Taking a treat So, the foster parents have booked a short holiday. Judy can't go to a kennel because her autoimmune disease means she can't have the required vaccinations. The care arrangements we had for her fell through so Judy will B&B (Bed & Biscuits) with us. Murpheeee will have to mind his manners. We are very excited to have Judy staying with us again, even if it will be for such a short time! Investigating the yard The Circus eyes Judy On 20 March 2009, Maureen writes: Sadly, both Tyner & Judy have now crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Both succumbed to cancer.

The Airedale can do anything any other dog can do and then whip the other dog.
