Souraya,

You & these doggies will be in my thoughts & prayers.
You have done soooo much already. They are no longer
wandering around alone outside somewhere. Timing seems
to be everything in matching the right people with the dogs
who need them. Please know that I think you're a wonderful
soul for trying. Don't lose hope just yet. O.K ? Prayers will
continue for a good outcome. I still remember Roxey the black
female that you helped find a forever home. If things had been
different with Buddy at that time,I would have been happy to
take her. Sometimes it's just timing. You are quite a young
lady Souraya. Your Mom must be so proud of you. :)

I have had a couple of bites on Gigi (that's what I named the beagle mix). Already turned one down because they didn't want to spay her. And waiting on a response from another. I am afraid I may have discouraged those people as well. They said they wanted her as a xmas present for their lil girls. I explained how most xmas present pets end up in shelters and how Gigi would be a life long commitment. I said if they were still interested, I would send them an application and go from there.

My roommate knows a family who may be interested in the bulldog mix (haven't named him yet). I told her to tell the guy to call me and we would discuss it. We'll see.

I haven't given up on them and don't plan on it either.

OK. Well, I was told they would be out in adoptions by Wednesday. I just checked my voicemail and the director of the shelter said they would be up for adoption on Nove 25th at 4:30 PM!! He also said he would hold them for me until the 26th and couldn't guarantee anything after that. They would be safer if they get adopted on the 25th!! Well, that's great!!!! What does he mean?

Still haven't been able to find any foster home for Gigi, the lil beagle mix. I have a foster home for the bulldog mix, but he can't go there till Monday since the family is out of town all this week!! I am going to have to try and take him home with me. Drake is going to flip and my time off is going to be super high stress trying to keep them both seperated.

Please keep these two guys in your thoughts.

Oh, man. Sounds like it's going to be pretty rough at your house this weekend:eek: I know Angus would have a cow!

I sure hope you find someone who will at least be able to foster Gigi. If I lived closer, I'd help.

Good Luck Souraya!

One of my students is going to be in Atlanta, so if you can't find anyone, maybe her parents would be willing to bring her here.

A friend of mine has offered to keep the bulldog mix until Monday when my coworker can start fostering him. This is still pending his wife's OK. But he doesn't think it should be a problem.

If all else fails, I guess I may try and keep Gigi until I can find a foster home.My coworker's sister said she can't take Gigi. Something about Gigi was too big! Guess when she said she wanted a small dog she meant tiny. Oh well.

What gorgeous dogs they are!! You can definately see the Aussie in Gigi.

I do hope they find forever homes soon, if not for Drakes and your sanity! :)

My prayers go out to you and the pups.

Great news!! My coworker that was going to foster the bulldog mix, Smokey (that's what Mac is calling him) wants him! He said that his wife and three daughters fell in love with his picture. So, he is going to have a forever home!! Hurray!

Fingers and paws crossed for Gigi!

Like I said, I'll see if my student will transport if nothing happens with her.

I'm having terrible internet problems, Souraya, but wanted you to know that I have kept these two sweeties in my thoughts and prayers all weekend. And my prayers didn't stop there, but included you too, for making such a huge, loving effort to help them find a forever home. :)

She's SUCH a sweetie, I am sure someone (closer to there than me) will fall for her! That beagley face just tugs at the heart. How big is she? (I guess in height and pounds ...)
