It’s been almost a month now with our beautiful princess Elsa. A month with a hard work, and it will go on for a long time. I couldn’t make without my beautiful Embla. She’s so amazing and I’m sure she knows and understands that Elsa needs a lot of support from her. Thank you my darling, I love you so much. ❤

Update! Believe it or not! Elsa’s waist has increased from 41cm to 48 cm in just a few days! And she just run 20 meters! 👏👏🎉

When I woke up this morning I saw that Elsa had moved from her big bed to Embla’s bed which is much smaller and not so comfortable. Any of my dogs seem to like the big one? Why?😉

Later in the morning a friend came to visit us – or Elsa. She thought Elsa was so sweet. We took a medium long walk in the rain. ☔️

In the afternoon we finally got some  sun. Suddenly Elsa disappered, but I found her laying in front of the entrance door on the hard steps. I fetched her fluffy blankets and she looked so thankful when I came with them. She stood up and as soon as I put them under her sha lay down again.She soon got company😍

Can you believe it? Today it’s a week since Elsa arrived! I have made a lot of phone calls today and booked water therapy at the nearby Animal Hospital “Blå Stjärnan”. I almost grew up there from the age of 10-14. I spend almost every weekend there and helped cleaning the cages and walking the dogs. Sometimes I was the luckiest and happiest girl in the world when the vets asked me to hold a dog or a cat that needed to be examined by them. I have also called the insurance company for dogs. I got 15% off since I have 3 dogs now. Elsa’s chip has also been registered. On Friday we have an appointment with an other vet to have her examined for the insurance. My brother, who is one of the best osteopaths in the West part of Sweden (at least) is coming over tomorrow to start laser treatment on her back. Later on we will also start to use his vibration plate that will do good to her non-existent muscles. When I tried it I couldn’t walk the next day. My entire body ached with sore muscles.

Today we woke up quite early. Elsa had slept all through the night,but she had removed her diaper. Breakfast was served outdoors since my male dog Eddie is a little bit protective over his food. I won’t say he’s food aggressive, but he wants all food to himself. Elsa is also a little bit protective over her food, but who wouldn’t if you have been forced to live your life in the streets?

Elsa being brushed for the first time. Ever?

Being spoilt. ❤

Today we and our German guest Sarah went on a short trip to Ulricehamn. It was pretty windy walking by the lake, but it didn’t stop Embla, Eddie and Elsa from playing in the water. Well. Elsa didn’t play, she had to do some rehab. She had to swim poor thing in the cold water, but she didn’t seem to mind that much.

Afterwards we went to a café and had some ice cream, even the dogs of course.

When we came home again we gave Elsa a thorough brush to fix her tangled coat. A hair brush wasn’t enough, we needed to use a pair of scissors to get rid of all tangled hair. You can’t imagine how patient she was this little girl. Afterwards the most amazing thing happened – she invited Embla to play! That was so good to see!

Elsa slept in her dog bed in our bedroom all night. We didn’t hear a sound from her. She’s so quiet! She seems to love her bed. I guess this is her first soft bed and with her bed wounds it must be so m uch nicer to sleep in a soft bed.

What else has happened to day? We drove Rima Nur, the founder of He’art of Rescue, to the airport. It was so sad to say good bye. Before Rima left we took this picture at the airport:

Thank you Rima for this precious gift! ❤

Even if Elsa is skinny, the “dog” to the left is skinnier. 😉

Since Elis incontinent due to her horrific “accident” in Istanbul, she can’t help that she can’t hold herself. On our way from the airport we had to stay to walk Elsa. She needed to go to the bathroom we could smell inside the car.

She’s so skinny because she has got no muscels. She needs a lot of rehab, but she also needs to be a happy dog.

I like it here. I don’t want to leave!
