Welcome to Maggie, a middle aged Jack Russell lady who has recently come in to stay with us. It’s not always possible to keep on caring for a much loved pet when your health is not good and this is the situation in which Maggie’s elderly owners found themselves.
Maggie is a lovely dog who is very much a little lady, she is neat and sweet and with a semi-long haired coat she is very pretty too. Maggie has been well cared for but has become a little overweight as her people couldn’t exercise her as much as before. We are going to give her lots of little walks to help get her weight down and get her fit again. Gently does it though and we’ll build up gradually. Maggie isn’t too keen on the cold weather and none of our other ‘golden-oldies’ are either.
Miss Nolene goes out for a quick run round but then she’s soon ready to come back inside.
Ah, that’s better – nice and warm and on the sofa!
