Fanny update...


Fanny update 6 days after she was dumped on my doorstep. As you can see her eyes are now pretty much cleared up, ditto her ears. You can see in the last photo the wizened skin on her cheeks - this is also under her chin and around her rear and tail. That skin probably won't change and won't grow coat again.

Otherwise, she is coming along really well - just isn't crazy about having her photo taken and looks rather bothered, especially in the middle photo. I had to put her harness on and fix her lead to the gate as otherwise, she is so stuck to me like glue that I can't get far enough away from her to take a photo. Also she's a bit scared of the longer lens but will doubtless get used to it in time.

  4. Fanny looks almost a different dog now that you've given her a haircut, her drugs and of course plenty of love. A shame Gail & I don't live closer, otherwise we'd pop round and say hello to her and give her a cuddle.

  8. When I heard the name Fanny Brice I was thinking of a character in one of Jane Austin's novels but today got around to looking her up and she was Fanny Price! However that Fanny, in Mansfield Park, had 'a noble and modest disposition' but there was a 'strength and earnestness' in her character so Fanny is not at all misnamed!
    She is obviously a survivor as was Fanny Price
