Betsy’s Bits

Betsy is my special foster thru Rita B Huff in Huntsville Texas! She’s a very scared girl in search of her forever family! Join out on her journey!

Today I cleaned out your crate and got it ready to be put away… I know I know that took forever but somehow I just couldn’t do it. For 4-5 years every time someone left someone else came in. But not with you… & now not with Casperson though I’m sure his story will go on and not be cut short like yours was… closing a door seems so weird. But I still think about you.. and I still kick myself for not just keeping you… but I thought one of 2 would be better than one of 9…. I was wrong.

In the few short months they were together she taught him a lot! I’m gonna really really miss her come his teen phase! She was such a good girl! Always!

08/23/2023

This is a very hard post to write… definitely not the end to her story I had hoped for…

Betsy was found deceased and identified this morning not too far from where she came up missing.

I wanted to share some happy photos of this sweet girl who did not deserve this! I’m trying to hang on to 3 good years she had and not one horrible month and end.

A sincere THANK YOU to everyone who has looked for her, shared her posts, and put up with my craziness for the last month! Her life did matter!! Thank you!!

Today has been one month…One month since Betsy ran away from Fort Woof Dog Park. 751 Beach Street Fort Worth Texas.

Today I received a FaceTime from a guy who had trapped a very skinny dog that looked a lot like Betsy in his backyard. I was loading to head to Fort Worth when he called back to tell me it wasn’t her. I had told him she was a cower freeze & p**p scared not a fight scared… well this one was a fight scared & a male 😞 . To everyone still keeping an eye out THANK YOU! I know chances are slim… but slim is NOT impossible!

08/16/2023

I’m still bumping posts. I’m still hoping somehow someone sees her.

08/11/2023

It took her quite a bit before she tried it, but Betsy did get a woof cup back when Sonic had them. She wasn’t sure about it at first but ended up eating the whole cup! Still missing! No sightings

08/10/2023

Or maybe this one is my favorite!

08/10/2023

This is probably my favorite picture of Betsy. She loves to roll in any smell she finds that she wants to save. On this day she was determined to catch a gopher in his hole. Still hoping you are found sweet girl!

She was FILTHY in this picture but she was happy.

08/03/2023

You are not forgotten my sweet girl. I’m still searching and sharing. Hopefully she’s found someone who will feed her and love her from a distance. Give her a cool place to sleep. Maybe a dog friend… I’m sorry I let you go. I really thought you were going for a better life and had you only realized you needed to stay close to your new mama… you would have…

Still missing. Last seen on 7/18 at 630 am at 751 Beach Street Fort Worth Texas!

07/29/2023

Still no sightings. Today cleaning I came across the tag I got her… the one we ordered with her name on it… atleast once in her life she had a tag with her name on it… but it never got put on her collar because I was meaning to buy a new one… she did have my foster mom tag on her when she left me… this is worse than one dying because I worry daily.. is she hungry? Hot? Scared?? Grrr

07/26/2023

It’s been 8 days today… I’ve called everyone I can call.. sent messages and emails everywhere I can email and made
Multiple trips to Fort Worth hoping she will hear or smell or see me or one of her buddies from here and come running out of the bushes… but so far that has not happened. We have had 0 sightings… she hasn’t shown up in the shelters that I can see online.. and I’m still so very worried. If you know anyone near Fort Worth or Dallas please share Betsy with them. Thanks!

07/22/2023

Still not even a sighting…. She’s
Posted everywhere I can find to post. The park seems to be removing anything we leave scent or flyer wise… I’m just praying she’s somewhere safe somehow!

07/19/2023

Betsy’s foster mom here. Yesterday Betsy got lost in Fort Worth. She was last seen at the dog park at 751 beach st. If anyone knows anyone in the area to keep an eye out please please do! I went to search last night but she was nowhere to be found. Her new mama is looking for her. Please share!

07/15/2023

My foster mom is acting alittle off today. She didn’t let me play with the whole
Pack because some of My foster brothers and sisters decided to play with a skunk last night but she’s taken me to the park and loaded me in the truck with my foster dad… we are headed to my new home is what she says. I can tell she’s alittle happy and alittle sad! I’m ready for my next adventure!!

07/04/2023

Betsy’s foster mom here:
I’ve been asked several times how I can rehome her after 3 years so I just wanted to hop on & explain. Betsy is a great girl & will definitely take a piece of my heart with her when she moves forward. We have worked pretty hard together and of course I love her, but I am her foster not her forever. I knew that when she came here. As a foster, I know from the beginning it’s not meant to be forever. I get to be a step in their journey. I know that when they move forward another dog will need their place to be saved. I also know that being 1 of 10 is not as great a life as being 1 of 2 or 3. They do spend a lot of time crate and rotate here. They get playgroup and I do my absolute best to spend one on one with each one, but they ALL deserve a forever home. That is how I can let them move forward. O I cry. I miss them. Updates mean so much more than people know! But I know that as one moves forward another can be saved. That’s how 🙂.

The big puppy prefers to wrestle. I prefer to play chase. Soooo we compromise 😉

07/04/2023

3 years ago today, this woman loaded me into her car and I was soooooo scared. She sat with me,deer watching and people watching and just hanging out. After about a month or so I realized she wasn’t so bad and I’d sleep on her feet if she was asleep… over time I meshed in with the ever changing pack of dogs at my foster mom’s house. She jokes I’m a cat in a dogs body because I want human love on my terms and am quite self sufficient. I even brought her a present once she was not super fond of. I need food, shelter, and a doggy friend and I’m good to go. I love to roll in new smells, I sometimes have a cute little howel if I tree a squirrel… I like to chase small Critters and the only time I dig is if there are gophers. Then it’s a game. However my foster mom has birds and prairie dogs that I’ve learned to ignore in their cages but it took time to understand WHY she had what looked like squirrels In cages!! “ we don’t eat family members” that’s what she tells me! Today she held me and petted me and fed me
My favorite treats while thinking back over the last 3 years and how far I’ve come. She will be sad when I get my forever home, but she knows there’s another pup that needs her help! And she says I’ll be better off In a home where my friends don’t keep leaving ( I get quite sad when they leave and won’t eat for a few days). Where I won’t be one of 10 and won’t have to share time and love quite so much… soooo I’m hoping my forever comes soon! If you think I’m a good fit let my foster mom know. She kinda loves to talk to people about me 😉.

06/18/2023

The big puppy has officially joined our playtime. This is my favorite time of the day. Foster mom only lets us come out really early or when it’s dark right now to run and play. She says it’s too hot!

06/17/2023

I didn’t get adopted today. But I slept extra hard on the way home! Foster mom says maybe next time!

06/17/2023

I knew something was up this morning! I’m at my first adoption event! I’m scared but my foster mom is here. Will my forever come today??

05/28/2023

My foster mom said we’ve done a good job of teaching the not so little puppy to play sooo he joined our whole big dog play group today. That was fun!

05/25/2023

Then we come inside to rest. I prefer the couch to the new big bed they are building but shhh don’t tell them.

05/25/2023

Today me and Bodi are teaching the big puppy how to climb and play tetherball. He’s super
Clumsy but we are pretty good teachers is what Foster mom says. Then we come inside and rest!

05/21/2023

Today I will share a few of my friends! We play play ( foster mom calls it playgroup because she watches us closely to be sure we are being nice and fair) we get “playgroup” atleast twice a day. Unless it’s raining then we all just stand inside the door and look at her like she’s nuts for wanting us to go outside!

05/20/2023

My foster mom says I’m really good at teaching new fosters to play because I’m gentle & engaging when they are timid but I’m all out when they want to play full force. I love to play chase!!

05/20/2023

This is my favorite kinda morning activity playgroup!!! I love love to be outside with my friends! Foster mom always supervised to be sure we are nice to each other!

05/20/2023

Foster mom says she’s been slacking, but promises to do better about giving you a look at my life.

She got a puppy.. Koda.. he’s 15 weeks old but bigger than me & wheww the energy ( & I’m a pretty energetic girl!!)

She says I’m helping teach him how to play nicely. When I’m tired I hop up here by her & she shares her blanket & tells him to let me rest!!

She still won’t let chase the prairie dogs! She tells me we don’t eat family members but I still don’t understand how squirrel looking critters in a cage are family!! I listen though & leave them alone, but I watch them closely!

I’d be quite the hunter if she’d let me!!

So here’s a peek into my bedtime routine! I still would love a family of my own… maybe 1 or 2 siblings instead of 9 I have to share the attention with 😉

10/30/2022

Today she’s dressing us up for something called Halloween… guys she’s lost her MIND! I was not fond of this hat.. so much so that the minute she turned her back I shred it! But… she has another one!! Save me! My foster mom has lost her mind 😉

10/23/2022

Today my foster mom pulled a fast one… we usually go get nuggets or a hamburger.. today she gave me a strange cup! It wasn’t so bad once I tried it … not my favorite but it grew on me! She says next time we go get my nuggets!

03/25/2022

This is such a happy girl! She loves loves to play with other dogs. She will sleep on my feet on the couch. She’s still waiting on a home of her own! Toni’s face when she just can’t keep up makes me laugh so hard!
