Millie 2 hours after leaving the rescue centre.
Millie is a 6 year old Beagle that has been at the http://www.appledown.co.uk/ rescue centre for two weeks,she was owned by a couple who had to give her away due to work commitments.They had to leave her indoors all day and wondered why she chewed everything and went mad at people passing the windows,they had tried pulling the blinds down but she wrecked 3 sets as she could still hear people passing.
When I opened the car boot to take her home she jumped in and would not get out as I wanted to give her a walk around the field before we left,so I had to lift her out as she laid on her back.She was constantly pulling on the lead so I shortend it so she was level with my legs,this helped a bit but not much.It was a calm journey home of about 7 miles with a few whines from the rear.
She doesn't seem to know what a toy is and is unresponsive when her name is called so I think a bit of tender loving care is called for.We went for a half hour walk tonight so she could do her buisiness and not too far as I think her leg muscles need strengthening up as well as mine but she still has not eaten although has drunk plenty.I rang the centre and they said don't worry she will eat when she's ready,so we will wait and see.
