Join me on my bumbling and often bumpy ride as a furry foster mom. The fosters are furry... not me!

Found this on FB... and since FB has taken away the easy way to share things to a different account, I cut & pasted this and now , I can't find the original poster back to give credit to.

Hilarious pictures of puppers!

Most of us are aware of how eccentric cats get, but it seems as if dogs aren’t any less crazy. In fact, our canines are quite the weirdos who are always surprising their owners with the most random things. So, we came across a Reddit group that goes by the name of “What’s Wrong With […]

The pups did fantastic this morning! I was sitting on the edge of the daybed, enjoying eggs and hash browns for breakfast when Moo jumped up next to me. Then Leo jumped up on the other side of me. Typically, there's some quibbling between them when they are both that close to me AND then add in food to the mix and I was expecting a bigger argument.

Nope! They both sat so nice and waited their turn for bites of egg off my fork. No lunging at the fork resulting in an unplanned tonsillectomy, no barking...nothing. Just peace and quiet, enjoying a simple breakfast as a family. I think they realized the complex's loud mouthed, witchy, run-to-the-office to gossip -on-a-daily-basis" and "leave out all the details to try and make herself look innocent" in the vicious dog attack whiner MOVED OUT!!! We've been doing the happy dance for a few weeks now as we can already tell how freakin' quiet thr dog park is without her loud mouth gossiping all. the. time. Happy Spring!!

In case anyone is wondering how much fluff fits into a standard regular sized pillow.....it's this much. 🤔

Guess who's struggling with kennel cough? He starts prescription cough drops tomorrow to help him sleep better at night. He's handling it like a trooper!

10/10/2023

These two pups busted out of prison (a/k/a crappy dog park gate) this morning to play with some new pups they've seen. Don't let their faces fool you...they're guilty of raising this old lady's heart rate and adrenaline sky-high!

Shout out to Debra for expertly catching Leo and distracting Moo until leashes were put on. And now, off to contact the complex about checking the gate latch and possibly reattaching the door properly. 😂. Don't hold your breath folks...dog parks are the last things to get fixed.

06/10/2023

It's so not fair when Leo wakes you up at 3:30am to go take care of business outside so you take both dogs out to get it over with....then they come back in and fall back asleep and I'm wide awake. AND they're hogging my bed!

Two hours at the dog park = two tired dogs + Leo. 😂

Today's episode of Leo & The Zoomies!

Leo and I were out for 1/2 hour and now Moo and I are out. <3. Funniest thing ever.....the two barker dogs downstairs are loud as all get out now (hmmmm...I wonder if Megan's asked them if they've had problems with my dogs. LOL) so Leo is jumping in. I just looked in using my cameras and told Leo to knock it off. The look on his face was priceless! I should have everyone know they were on camera....lol

The weather is beautiful today so Leo and I are hanging outside for a while soaking up the Vitamin D.

Park

Walter is loving the cool morning temps.

Zoomies

Walter has the zoomies this morning!

Walter

Too hot to do much of anything today. Walter's skin is looking better already. It's dry and not weepy which makes a huge difference!

Yum

Hey Mikey! He likes it!

Walter and Cain

I have to share these two beautiful videos that I got tonight. Debra and her son Cain live in the next building. Snowball, the white poodle pup is theirs. They will be helping me with the pups while I'm at work, etc. Moo didn't have any issues with them going in my apartment while I'm at work and Debra and Cain have taken the pups outside to the park and for a walk. I have to show off how fabulous Cain is doing with walking Walter! ♥️🐾

Ball

Moo paid this orange ball no attention in the house...but now that I tossed it into the dog park? It's her favorite. 😂

How Doug* came into our lives...

It was just another e-mail from the local shelter, looking for a foster home for a malnourished and wormy dog. I glanced at the pictures and thought, “Awww, he looks so pitiful. Someone will surely step up and foster him.”

I kept looking at their FB page and website, looking for the update of his location “In a foster home”.... and it never came.

When I was done with my event on Saturday, I thought, “I’ll just drive past the shelter. I’m sure by now SOMEONE will have fostered him.” And no one had.

Now, I’d just semi-finished clearing off my porch (ignore the remnants of “stuff” in the pictures... I’m not done yet! LOL) and had the room, kinda. So I asked if I could see him.

The volunteer (I can’t remember her name but she’s a sweetheart!!) took me to the back building and called his name...no response. We went around to the outside portion of his kennel and he was laid out so flat I thought he was dead. Plus, he’d recently had a large accident that was black and tarry that he was laying in. (This is NOT a slam against the shelter... they are over crowded and understaffed and they do what they can when they can. Burlington Animal Services is one of the best shelters in the state!)

After taking pictures of Dug, she took me back to the reception area,and she went in the “staff only” area to talk with someone about his condition. A few minutes later, she came back with a staff member and they took me into the hallway to discuss his situation. Extreme case of hook and whip worms when he came in, very malnourished, and in that case, they couldn’t really see what any other health issues there might be. Did I still want him? Yes, please!

So they got me approved and I went home to finish (ok, not quite finish) setting up Dug’s room and I would stop by on Sunday to pick him up... and I wondered all night, ‘Am I doing the right thing? My gawd, I start a new job on Tuesday... what have I gotten myself into?” But I knew one thing... if anyone could fatten a dog up, it would be me!

Sunday they brought Dug up in the back of a golf cart and someone even questioned if he was still alive. He was.. and he was going home with me! I asked what do I do if he passes away during the night... I honestly wasn’t sure he would make it. But I knew at least I could give him a few hours of love and hopefully comfort. If he didn’t make it, I knew Bella would be waiting at the other side of the bridge for him.

And that’s where this page begins.... and now, I need to watch “Up”, the movie he was named from.

*formerly known as Dug.
