We got millie at 6 weeks old, she was dumped in a box outside a kennels and i saw an ad in the local pet shop wiondow, id been on at my mum for like 3 years to get a dog and she'd always said no not until the right dog and the right time comes along, anyways she decided to ring up about them, and they had several puppies left! we went down there they were gorgeous, not in the best condition and the dogs in the next kennel looked ill..these pups were jumping around and a little sandy colour puppy caught our eye, we decided to take 'him' home, called him bradley we left a donation of £10
we got home noticed he was flea ridden and had bad flea bites around 'his' ears, so we treated 'him' before letting him in the house, the same week he developed parvo despite 2 trips to the vets and being told no 'he' wasnt, we also learned this 'he' was infact a she! the kennels assured us the pup was male, but the vet confirmed we had a female..lol so quick change of name to millie  O0
she became really ill one night my mum was mashing up scrambled egg and and forcing water into her, that morning we took her to the vets and finally they said she had parvo, the vet said if my mum hadnt have forced the fluid into her she would have been dead by the time we got ther there, she was in the vets for a week on drips and nearly died one night she got so bad, but she started picking up, and 4 days later was allowed home  O0 shes turning 4 in july, and shes our little princess, shes really soft, cuddly, sweet.
