I don't know how long her owner had been dead but they were all in dreadful
condition. This is her pic on the Dogs Trust site I fell in love with.

Here she is after she had gained some weight and her hair had started to
grow again on her back.

In her chair! As you can see she has gained a little <?> weight The vet
says she needs to diet

She loves us to bits and hate all other dogs, which is understandable and
other people too. Maybe one day ...

Anyway I bought a toy today and here it is. It is very soft and cuddly. I
petted it a bit and she watched for a few minutes and then went to sleep
