not getting the puppy

So, I just got an email from the college girl saying she found a guy that was willing to take the puppy. UGH!! So, how long do you think before I get an email from him saying he got this puppy and can't handle it..LOL!!

I really hope it isn't some backyard breeder. UGH!

Weekly update....

What a crazy week and last week were just crazy busy. Not really with dogs just with life.

Well things are going pretty good. I checked Pet Finder today and called Ohio Pounds to check on JRT's and it looks like I am in the free and clear... for now anyways.. LOL!! Nothing needs me. That is honestly a good thing.

I have two families coming out tonight to see Razzel and Rose. Hopefully they will like them.

I am getting a 12 week old puppy today. Some college girl got it from some old guy that was given the puppy as a gift but it was too much for him to handle and not the college girl is learning VERY quickly how much work a puppy is and a JRT puppy at that.

I LOVE PUPPIES but not living at my house.. LOL!! They are so much work. LOL!! I will post some pictures when I get him. I bet he is CUTE!! I hope he still has puppy breath. That is the best. I am sure by the time the weekend is over I will be sending an email to my volunteers asking if anyone wants to foster him.. LOL!!

Well I am getting ready for the annual fund raiser. Hopefully it is a success. Looks like we are going to have a lot of cool things at the fund raiser. A lady that adopt a dog from me is going to bring her agility stuff out and set it up so people can see what their dogs can do. That is going to be SO much fun, I can't wait. I am going to have micro chipping, a tag making company and a two dog groomers and a lady who owns a dog boarding facility there too.

I have some REALLY cool raffle prizes including a 1 week stay in a condo in Florida.

So much fun! Now, I just have to get the food. UGH! I want to buy it all right now so I can have everything done and organized but I don't think food is going to last till next Saturday... LOL!!

Well fingers crossed that Rose and Razzel find homes tonight!

FRANNY PICTURES :-)

Fran is cracking me up! You can tell she is feeling better. She RUNS around the back yard like she is on fire... LOL!! Too funny.

Her favorite thing to do however, is sit right outside the kitchen window and chew on a bone FOR HOURS!!

You can tell she isn't 100% secure in herself yet because she does still walk like she is un sure of herself but definite improvement.

She had her shots last week and is scheduled to be spayed on September 10th! YAY!!!!!

Why I do rescue

I received a call from my friend who does Aussie Rescue. A women was sent to a nursing home. She has 3 Aussies. 1 is 13 years old and blind and the other 2 will be 8 years old in November and have never been away from her or each other.

If those dogs would have been turned into the pound they would have been killed IMMEDIATELY! Why? You probably just said to yourself. Well #1. They are considered owner surrenders and they can be put down any time. There isn't a law that says the dog pound would have to hold them for any length of time. #2. They would have been killed just because of their age. #3. The blind one would have been killed just for being blind and the two 8 year olds are so scared they would have been killed for that.

So, really they have nothing going for them here.

Denise was able to get them last night and I am holding the two 8 year olds at my house. Not that have the room but seriously what am I supposed to do? Let them die? I don't think so!

So, anyone out there who might read this or know someone who truly honestly wants to RESCUE something these three need rescuing!

Here are pictures of the 8 year olds..... Oh and don't worry I am putting them on a diet.. LOL!!!

Caught Franny playing with toys today :-)

So I am sitting in my dinning room going through my mail. I here Fran wrestling around on the couch. I couldn't figure out what she was doing. I walk into the TV room and she is playing with toys!! She is tossing them around, jumping up and down off the couch and taring up the stuff turtle. She wasn't too sure she wanted me to play with her but as long as she thought I wasn't watching she would play. Too cute. So, I ran upstairs got my camera and snapped a few pictures!

Enjoy!!

And the after math of the turtle.. LOL!!

***If you click on the pictures it will make them bigger so you can see them better. You will notice that her hair is sort of starting to grow back on her neck and if you look at her legs / feet you can see how red they are from her itching at them. Hopefully the shot and medicine she got on Thursday will help that to start going away.

Franny update

Fran went to the vet yesterday. She is really chewing at her feet. She is chewing so much that she made her chin all raw!

The vet said at this point it could be seasonal allergies. UGH! He did another test just to make it isn't mites and we couldn't come up with anything. BUT just to be safe we have her some more topical medicine and the vet gave her a shot for her allergies.

Everyone at the office said she does look really good. That makes me feel better because I see her everyday so it is hard to notice.

I will try to get some pictures up this weekend of her.
