Rika’s Story My early puppy life was not so good and I ended up at the CHB SPCA where I stayed for many months as I waited for my turn to be adopted. I was a rather large puppy and was given the name MARTHA. The months went by and still no one took me home. It was August 2007 when I was about 6 months old, when a new volunteer arrived to help out on Saturday mornings. She did not pay too much attention to me in the first few weeks but one day while I was sitting by the dog run gate she looked straight at me and came over to say hello. I was sitting in my best pose looking a bit aloof as I did not want to look too excited and put her off. Well it worked, I was adopted a couple of weeks later after her other half had given me the once over. They took me home, which I found out I had to share with 3 cats, a whippet, 4 chickens, and several fish. They renamed me RIKA. |

Lazing in the sun, oh what a life! |
I gave mum a bit of a rough start as I dug holes everywhere! But they liked me and even thou they threatened to take me back, I got to stay.
I have the bestest home, I get to stay warm and dry inside during winter and outside in the cool during summer. I am spoilt rotten with lots soft toys and walks, and dog treats. Mum calls me her big gentle bear. I have a soft personality and wouldn’t hurt a fly – really I wouldn’t….. |
