2 10yr old Female Aussies

[Animalhouse26]

A friend of mine just called. And someone she knows has 2 Female Aussies Both Females. Outdoor Dogs.. 10 yrs old. She needs to find them a home before Sun.. or they will be PTS. She is moving and can't take them with her. One is a Blue merle her name is Mika, and the Red Merle names Marly. They are on The Florida Aussie website. http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/...?petid=9172010

She would prefer them to go together, but at this point.. someone to take them even if split up will be ok. If I can't find anyone.. My friend would take them in, But only for a cpl days... As in her Apt she is only alowed to have 2 pets.. and she has a cat, and a GSD already.

So, Any help would be appreciated. LET ME KNOW! We need Foster or Perm Homes for these poor girls

Thanks Kay! :-) They are soo Pretty. I feel AWFUL! My mom isn't too Keen on 2 Big dogs to foster at the moment.. :-( I am trying to find someone to take em!

Beautiful dogs! I'm so sorry that your friend is having to find them new homes; I bet she's so upset after having them 10 years!

I would love to adopt them; I bet they're sweet girls but I can't. I will ask some friends. I have a friend who wants a border collie so I'll call her today and just see if she might consider these 2 girls.

Good Luck!

OMG!! I love them! And I already have a female Aussie. I sent the link to my BF and said can we get them? LOL Don't hold your breath, I'm sure he'll say no. But it doesn't hurt to ask, right? I'll talk to him more about it when I get home too. As I've been told Aussies only have life expectancies of approx 12 years. So these two have a few good years left in them and deserve a good home to finish their lives out.
Are they moving to California or Canada?

ETA: I couldn't wait till I got home, so I called him. He helped me realize we can't. He tried saying that's three times the poop to pick up. I said I'll help. Then he said it's three times the vet bills. Since we are tight with finances right now, I couldn't argue with that one. Especially since Marly is on medication.
I'm so sad. I'm afraid these dogs won't find homes because of their age. I thought of fostering, but that's too far to travel just to be rehomed again.
I hope someone will take them and save them.

[BC_MoM]

Too far? Heck no! We've had foster dogs come from Kentucky all the way to Canada and they have made it a-ok! :D

[Animalhouse26]

Yes, I know it is going to be VERY Tough finding them a place. and Remedyl is actually Not SUPER expesive. I used it for my old Shep X 100mg tho a day, so double the dose. I would even throw in what I have left over to help someone out! I feel soo Bad for these girls. If we had a place of our own, I would take them in! :-(

[Taz_Zoee]

Well, I can try to see what I can do. It's a long shot, but I'll try. ;)

[Animalhouse26]

I would just love to find these girls a home. I could take them in here if I had to I guess... I would just be yelled at..LOL we were only planning on fostering a small dog.. not 2 large ones LOL!

[Animalhouse26]

Someone on the other forum I am in is willing to foster them both.. Only prob is.. she is in Colorado.. :-( So, is there anyone willing to help in Transport?

[Taz_Zoee]

Woo Hoo! I am so glad someone can foster them.
Now all we need to do is get them there.
Come on PT, I know we can do it. :D

[Animalhouse26]

I can get them a cpl hrs north, But only on the weekend, which is there last day.. :-( So, We don't have much time... If I could afford to go further, and my health wasn't so bad.. I wouldn't mind taking them to GA, as i have Family there I could Visit.. Hmmm

[Animalhouse26]

BTW, I am in Florida, so Quite a distance from Colorado! :-(

[Taz_Zoee]

Are the dogs in Florida as well? I'm sorry, I'm not good with cities and such.
I have no idea where St. Petersburg is.

[Animalhouse26]

Yes, they are also in Florida. We are Near Tampa.. which is the West Central area of Florida.. On the Peninsula thing. :-) It is about 6 hrs to get to the GA Border. I was just posting on my other forum, that i am trying to plan a trip to GA, But since i Have this health Issue I am pretty much Home bound, so no trips for me till prolly close to Nov. :-( And they don't have that much time. I wish I could get my mom to let me keep them here. But, she was only planning on getting a small foster :-( Ugh! They have till Sun, so I am still trying!

[Kfamr]

How is your friend moving to California? Colorado is on the way... is there anyway they'd be able to transport them?

[Animalhouse26]

I gave the ladys name and number to her for her to call, and see if there is something they can work out :-) MAYBE they will get it worked out that way! *Crosses fingers*

[Kfamr]

So it is something your friend is willing to do? I sure hope so!

Although... it would be great if I could convince my dad to take another trip out West! Wishful thinking... :p

[Animalhouse26]

Right. I have people from my game that live out near Cali, that would love to meet me, Wish my health was better I would go on a road trip :-)

[Ginger's Mom]

Found what I was looking for on Dogster. Dogster Railroad (http://www.dogster.com/forums/Dogster_Railroad) Go on there, let them know the route you want the dogs to take, and see if some of the people who have already signed up for transport can help. But I think you are goint to have to lay out the route first, so the people in the proper areas can respond.

[Aspen and Misty]

I live in Georgia, near Atlanta, however I am willing to travel to help get these pups to a new home. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

I am Horrid with citys and such, and I Don't travel much,so I couldn't make a list, or chart for it.. *sigh* I will look into info and see

I didn't know you were in Florida. I still hadn't asked my friend yet but since you're in Florida she probably wouldn't want to travel that far anyway. But I pray you find those 2 beautiful girls a home.

[Kfamr]

Wooohoo! Apparently the two old girls have found a foster home locally. I'm glad they don't have to travel so far. :)

[Taz_Zoee]

Yay! This is wonderful news!!! :D :D
