Bonzie aka Blackie Update
Refer earlier post on the arrival of Blackie, the smarty-pants /Apartment Invader/Pup.
Here are a couple of updates.
- She is now called Bonzie, because we think she should be a Bonzie. Not Bonzi because thats a boys name . The 'e' is definitive .
- She has g r o w n .
- She has three proud ( but young ) sponsors in the building who are delighted to play , feed and look after her , much to the chagrin of their parents . As you can see, to young Abbas, Shraddha and Ain , she is pretty much still a PUPPY!
- She thinks she's a baby , and will submit to being carried around for hours!
- She does not have blue eyes - its just the camera !
- Coltish and lithe, she is Queen of the Porch , and is warmly welcoming of all building visitors. Noise levels are deplorable.
- I think my entire building hates me for letting her be , but she is so cute ! The kids love her .
- She has a little record book from CUPA which confirms that she has had all her rabies, lepto and distemper shots , and that she belongs to the Building Association . She is due for spaying next month (ouch!)
- She is great buddy with next door neighbour Prashanth's six month rescue pup, Ginger . Watching them roll around together , and play - fight till they are exhausted, is really cute . She is feisty , this one.
- This does not stop Bonzie from a deep desire to explore the neighbours garbage dump .Three determined and undignified baths by Ain have still not fazed her.
- She has had her smart green collar and leash taken away three times by the neighbouring building's security guard . Once, I hear , a box/can was tied to her tail , much to my Army dad's fury. Perhaps for above reason. I still think its mean , because without a collar or license attached to the collar , the Corporation/Pound could seize her or put her down because they think she is stray and dangerous.
- After Whitey passed away , in some way , Bonzie is perhaps my chance at redemption.
I hope she finds a good and permanent owner/home soon.
Looking .
