New puppy (adopted)
So we have a new puppy in the house hold as of last night, we didnt pay for her as we have basically took her to get her healthy and looking good again. Owner was an alcoholic and basically slept and drank meaning no food and she stank of fags. Very skinny with spine and hips protruding but with regular good food I think she'll perk up. She seems fine in herself
She is 14 weeks old and we assume she is a cross but unsure at this point as she is very skinny so can't tell her size properly.
To say she's been here one day she is extremely settled, sleeping with our 13 month old bitch as we speak, very playful, seems she wants to be with people at the moment which is fine, she'll get a lot of love.
There's been a few nips but I think the pecking order has been sorted!
Wether we keep her or not we don't know, but we couldn't say no as she just doesn't look the best, and with us would be better than not getting getting looked after
Our main focus is Tilly our 13 month old so she gets all the fuss, food walks etc first as we don't want any problems like that.

She is beautiful! She's a lucky pup that you rescued her,horrible to think she could have suffered longer or worse if you weren't there to take her in x

Re: New puppy (adopted)
Thanks guys, she settling in really well
My first question, Playing with our Tilly.
They are playing a lot of the time which is including a lot of teeth showing and grabbing with mouths. there both submissive, tails wagging, no growling with the odd yelp from both which is followed by them both looking a bit sad.
We are watching them and intervening when there's a lot of biting. And trying to tell them when there being to rough as we don't want them nipping other dogs
Any other hints guys

Awww what a sweetie she is! Absolutely gorgeous, well done for taking her in! I really do hope you get to keep her
In regards to the playing, staffies can be very rough, which is completely normal during play, just ensure you supervise all play, intervene and separate for a little break if needed, and so far it sounds you are doing all that, which is great! Keep up the great work!!
