    Failed foster!

    John and I would like to to announce the adoption of of our latest dogkid, Finney the Shih Tzu!
    Since we gort him as a foster he has fitted in so well we couldn't bear to part with the little chap; we heard this morning there had been two applications for him and one look at John's face told thge rescue ladies he wasn't going anywhere! So Ben and Napoleon have a brother to play with permanently and we are very happy
    Sandie - you may now laugh We will have another foster dog too He is arriving tonight!

    Welcome to the "Failed Fostering 101" Club! Somehow, the moment we saw him, many of us knew he was a keeper!

    Congrats, Finney, on landing in a wonderful FUREVER Home!

    ANOTHER one so soon? Oh my! Good luck, ha ha haaa.

    Hmmm - I think I remember saying something to the effect of Finney not going anywhere.

    Good work Finney - looking absolutely adorable and playing nice with the other 4-legged residents that were already there, sure paid off big time.

    Welcome Finney - another wonderful PT permanent status pup!

    Love it when a foster gets a happy ending especially when they were in the right place all along. Congrats on the new family member!!

    This is why I don't foster. Peaches was supposed to be a foster kitty and that failed. Tigger was supposed to be a foster kitty too but that failed as well. We did find 2 other kittens new homes though, although we need to make a fail fostering 101 course sometime.
    In loving memory of Tigger 2003-2009. In loving memory of Ashes 2001-2013.

    Congrats!!! I don't think that I could ever foster either because I'd always fail.

    Thanks for the welcome to Finney! Sparky, Finney says Thu-chi che which as you of course know is Tibetan for thank you He sends woofs to Mindy too.

    He has just recovered from a corneal ulcer which happens when he got scratched and bitten at another foster home and can now see to play much better. He is currently making friends with the newest foster, Twister, a maltese who arrived last night.
