Still just a Puppy

So we have had Zeki for just over 2 weeks now and I am surprised how well she had settled in.  Being a street dog I expected problems due to not being use to the confined space.

She has however been excellent apart from attacking cushions while we sleep.  She had already broken the zips on 2 cushions when last night she decided to have ago at 2 more.  We had been shutting the lounge door at night to keep her out but the other half left it open and in she went.  To top things of she also had a go with one of my shoes.

I had to work of the energy she has as the 2 of us had a 2 am walk in the rain.  Oh the joys of having dogs

New Family Member

Last week we welcomed a new member to our family.  A street dog who we have called Zeki.  She was dumped near us last year along with her 5 sisters and 1 brother.  I would leave food out for them.  Over time they the others have moved on or the Council managed to catch them but Zeki stayed.

Well she started joining us on our walks and would wait outside for her meals.  Mustafa and I decided we needed to get her speyed as we did not want to have to deal with any puppies.  So on Saturday 28 February we took her to the Vet for her operation.  The intention was that she would stay with us for a few days and then we would let her back on the street and continue as before.

And so we did on Tuesday night we let her off the lead.  She ran off and we continued with walking our dogs.  5 minutes after we go home there was some howling outside.  Mustafa went out and there she was sitting by the main door.  When the door was opened she walked right in.

Life has changed again.

Tao Te Ching

Knowing others is wisdom;
Knowing the self is enlightenment.
Mastering others requires force;
Mastering the self requires strength;
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Perseverance is a sign of will power.
He who stays where he is endures.
To die but not to perish is to be eternally present.

Rough sea in the morning

So after a few days of wet and windy weather the sun is shinning but the waves are rising as the sun does.
