happyhiker, I'm so glad you and your dog crossed paths. Poor thing finally gets to have a good life now. I hope she didn't waste too much of hers stuck in that yard. Oh, and let me guess...she was turfed outside as soon as she passed from the cute-puppy-toddling-around stage to the high-energy-puppy-who-tests-limits stage. A lot of parents who've never raised a puppy seem surprised that dogs go through an obnoxious tween stage, too.

I referred to her as a Turkish Minivan.

I'm really happy that you adopted this little dear and saved her life. She sounds like a sweetie. I don't think people read up on birds before adopting them. Is she gaining weight yet?

Mother told me that barn cats were good for teaching manners to a child.
I grew up on farms in the 1950s.

That makes my BLOOD BOIL when I see breeders in the pet shop looking at birds for their brats or they surrender the poor things because they got knocked up. They are sensitive, intelligent creatures. I recently lost one of my cockatiel babies, she was 17.
I am so glad Leah is with you now!

I think proportionately Scotties have the biggest mouth around. And they do have their quirks about what and who they like/dislike.

Makes sense to me. I've met some cats who were as polite as little aristocrats.
I think an overall respect for animals is important to learn before having pets. They all need to be approached on
their own terms.
