Biography
Cooky is a sweet, bouncy, happy girl who loves attention and belly rubs and loves investigating our back yard. She is one of the most loving and gentle girls we've ever had with us. Her previous owner became very ill and could no longer care for her. During that time Cooky became overweight but we've made great progress on getting her girlish figure back. Because of her weight issue we have her on a weight control diet here, and she will need to be continued on that. We do consider her housetrained because she does reliably pee and poop outside, but she has an issue with "excited" urination. She only has accidents when stressed, if you call her calmly she simply walks outside to pee, if you pick her up on the way out, she might pee. So the trick is just to be calm around her. We had her urine tested and there were some crystals so we put her on a 30 day course of Uroeze and her followup test found all the crystals were gone and her Ph level was normal. This is one great little girl!
