Diva – In Foster – South West

#Diva 11/12/24

Welcome Diva who is 4 years old and entire

We were contacted by a distraught lady who had been left struggling to care for her daughters bulldog for the past two years, when their relationship broke down

Several attempts had been made to get Diva’s owner to take responsibility for her dog, because the last thing they wanted to do was give her up, but alas all attempts failed. So with a heavy heart she put this little girls needs first and asked if we would take her and make sure she would always be loved and cared for

Diva is a sad, four year old unneutered girl who has had a litter of pups. Her pups were born ‘water babies’ and didn’t survive

Diva has come in grubby with sore and dirty ears, red paws where she’s been gnawing them, both front paws have interdigital cysts, and she is very itchy.

Thank you to our foster mumma Holly Hughes, who kindly collected Diva for us on Tuesday and welcomed her into her home with her girl Beanie

Diva has had a long warm soak in a medicated bath and an antihistamine tablet to help soothe her itching whilst we work quickly to get her registered with our vet and seen asap so we can make this poor little poppet comfortable

Diva is being introduced slowly to Holly’s resident dog, Beanie.

Holly is taking introductions slowly, and they appear to be doing very well.

As with all our foster dogs, we encourage slow introductions to allow the new dog time to decompress.

This gorgeous girl will continue to decompress over the next few days and will be visiting our vets for her health check ASAP!

Please don’t ask to apply for Diva as she will require a period of assessment, but you can follow her journey in foster by joining our Facebook Community Group 👇
