Young female German shepherd in Sierra Cabrera, looks lost

When going to Cabrera we saw a german shepherd in the street. 10 minutes later she was at our house. Looking lost, but did not come when called, and fled. Hm.

Sent the photo to the estate agent, who lives in Cabrera, and has a dog herself. Do you know this dog? No. But it is outside a house clients are renting. She's outside the gate, crying. Hm. 

She does get water and food though. 

Why don't they let her in..

Facebook. She was already noticed before. Someone came up with a chip scanner. No chip. Ticks yes. And a skin condition, bald patches. Suspected leishmania. Not good, but not unexpected.

People noticed she's a very nice and lovable dog.

Paws Patas stepped in too. A family in Palomares came forward to adopt her, but could only come and get her the next day.  

We went to Cabrera that night (were still at the old house) and took her off the street.  That was easy.

Can't put a dog off the street with your own dogs right away. First a vet visit and some quarantaine.  

And a spot-on treatment against ticks. She must have a hundred.

Soo, engineer Jansen stayed overnight at the house in Cabrera to keep an eye on the dog, while engineer De Waal went back to the old house to guard the existing pack.

The couch was discovered quickly.

Sleeping arrangements. No bed yet, so make do with mattresses for sun beds and the floor.

Next day: The family that said they’d adopt cancelled, and Paws Patas has no space.

So now we’re fostering her, and killing the ticks. Been to the vet, blood test. Awaiting results.

All in all not too a great moment for us, as we’re moving house next week. 

We’ll manage. I hope. She’s absolutely lovely. So far it goes well together with our 6 dogs.

The dog is an absolute sweetie. If we can keep her we will.
