omg how old is Millie? her back is dipped alot! shes so cute!!!

[shiremonster]

She was rescued half the weight she was in that short clip, because of the bad condition it was hard for the vet to be acurate about her age, he said around 22 but me and her owner who I shared her with both thought she was a bit younger than that because of the way she acted. Unfortunately the lovely big girl passed away on boxing day. She knew she was loved by her new owners and everyone who was in her life for the last 6 months of it

unless the lady in this vid is very tall, the shire - millie?, doesn't look 18.2hh. Good job on getting her looking better now though - shires need to be round!

I thought she wasn't quite that big to be honest but thats what her owner who I shared her with was told when she was rescued, I'm just short of 5'10" and if I stand at her shoulder couldn't be seen, making her at least 17'2 / 17'3". Maybe her measurement was taken before the mistreatment and with more fat/muscle and shoes she may have been taller, not sure to be honest.

(First part of clip I'm standing higher than her)

Millie has sadly passed away now, boxing dy last year. RIP Millie Moo.

Sorry to hear that. I bet she went with a smile saying thankyou to you guys though! x

yeah, she knew she was loved by everyone at the end, she was rehomed the month before with two people I never met but absolutely adored her, like me, OH and her original owner who I shared her with.
