Does my Daschund miss her old family?

Question: Does my Daschund miss her old family?
Dear Madeleine,

I found Coco about a year ago wandering down a busy street. I was unable to find her owner. I also have 2 American Cockers. She is very vocal, whines and makes other noises. I love her very much and wonder if she is happy, sometimes she seems a little skittish. I give her extra love to make her feel welcome. But, I can't help but worry that she misses her family. Thank you.

Barbara

Answer:
Hi Barbara,

It feels like you are doing your very best for Coco and I'm sure she appreciates her new family. It is probably just taking her a little while to come to terms with the changes in her life and she may have a little sadness about losing her old family. There is a wonderful Bach Flower remedy called Walnut which helps people or animals cope with changes in their life and I'm sure it will help settle her. I'm sure she just needs lots of TLC which you can give by the bucketful!

Best Wishes,
