Jean - so sorry to hear about your mother. but just to let you know I delivered Ursa to her lovely new home this afternoon. I collected her from the SPA yesterday (and the 24 hours she was there she shared her box with a young puppy who arrived the day you collected her) She spent the night with my 4 - no problems at all. She has 2 new friends now - another girl Griffon and a boy Labrador, who accepted her straight away. She already knows her new owners as they walked her several times at the SPA earlier in the summer. Dog Links is up to speed with all this.
