Bear, Fosters, etc. .... please read!

[kimlovescats]

I know you have all been waiting for the verdict on Bear and whether or not he will be staying here or moving on to New England. He is an absolutely perfect dog and I love him dearly. He apparently has been through something fairly traumatic and I do not want him to have to adjust to another transport, foster home and then another home. So, Bear stays.


Now, here is the foster issue I now have as of last night around 6 pm. I took in a foster puppy who was rescued from a "bad situation". The lady who had her said that she had stepped in to help this baby but really didn't give me much information about her. I DO KNOW that this baby is full of roundworms! I mean every single poop is full of them and she's even passed bloody gel gunk full of them! I have already given her one Drontal and will get my vet to recheck her and give more medication as needed this Friday. I'm kind of thinking this young woman is really the one who got this puppy (she is a newlywed, works and lives in an apartment) and just realized that a puppy ... especially full of worms ... was more than she bargained for!

I cannot keep this baby! Although some of you don't think so, I really DO know my limits! Although Dottie is over a year, she is far from housebroken and still acts very much like a puppy still. Then you all know that Henna is still a puppy and then of course there is baby Betina! NO WAY can I take on another puppy right now! So..... I am counting on the wonderful people of PT to help us out!

Who wants this precious little girl? Surely someone here on PT will fall head over heels with her and give her a nice PT home? She is supposed to be a Timberwolf / Husky mix. She is approximately 11 weeks old per the young woman. I still haven't even named her yet so whomever wants her can even pick her name!!!

I figured that if needed, we can set up another PT transport for her? What do you all say?

Here she is ... are you ready?

[4 Dog Mother]

Oh my God, she is soooo cute! But I know my limits and I am at them especially with the problems Snoopy is having now. I just love brown puppies - I sure wish I had more room at this inn!

By the way, Kim, you are a saint for taking in these fosters. Not many would help out these fur kids.

[Reachoutrescue]

Oh my is she sweet! Look at that head tilt! I wish I could take her, but I am at my limit. I am sure there is somebody on PT that will want her...I mean come on this is a big place!! Thank you for the pictures and taking her in!

[pitc9]

First of all... YEAH BEAR STAYS!!!
Betina will forever thank you for keeping the big guy around!

The pup....OMG!!! She's beautiful!!
That head tilt is SURE to win someone over!!
I'll send her picture to my contacts!!

[buttercup132]

She is so cute!!!
Tamara you know you want another member to you pack.

First of all, here is the official welcome to PT for Bear!! WOO HOO!!

And of course I'd love to take in this puppy. But Bruce would not let me. Although, I will show him her picture tonight and see what kind of reaction I get. I really want a playmate for Zoee. Of course, don't hold your breath for me, it more than likely will not happen. She is soo adorable. I hope a PTer (K9Karen has puppy fever since having Woody.....hint, hint ) will take her in. I'd love to see her grow into a beautiful dog.

So Kim, do people just show up at your door with all these adorable pets????

OK, I know Bear came from a shelter, can't remember exactly how you got him. But this sweetie, oh my, ANOTHER ONE!

HOORAY FOR BEAR --- AND FOR BETTINA lol. They are so wonderful together. I think you made the right decision (surprised you with that comment, huh?)

I am full, full, full. Blessings and best wishes that this little girl puppy finds her way to a terrific home.

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Have fainted in shock at the news you are keeping Bear - wouldn't have expected that in a million years

That little girl is gorgeous - if donations are needed for transporting her to a new home let me know. I'm too far away to do anything constructive

[jennielynn1970]

YAY!!!!!!! I'm so happy for Bear! And I'm sure Betina will be ecstatic as well!

[shais_mom]

what a cute lil girl!
but YEAAA for Bear and Betina!

[kimlovescats]

Sandie, I ran my own cat rescue for five years, was Incorporated and the whole nine yards! Many of my other rescue contacts took in dogs as well as cats. It's no surprise that I still get tons of e-mail, but I'm much stronger about deleting than most of you realize! However, here lately these pups have really tugged at my heartstrings and I swear people sure are getting good at pouring on the guilt too!

THANK YOU to ANYONE who can pass this pup's information along! I will soon begin looking for her a local home, but I sure would love to be able to keep up with her on PT!!!

Bear and Betina also "thank you" but Bear will be much more in the partying mood once his conehead is gone! Poor guy!

YEEEEEAAA! Bear stays! I still get leaky eyes when I think about how close he was ... Snuggle up in that fluffy, flooffy tail, sweet Betina, and snooze on!

Kim, Puppy Girl is adorable and I like her feeties! I'm sorry she has worms, though. I hope your crew don't get them! Same goes for me with transport funds, since I can't adopt her.

[Ginger's Mom]

She is adorable. I am sure you will be able to find a good home for her.
Congrats to Bear and Betina. They make such a cute pair.

Congratulations on keeping Bear!

As far as the new foster goes with him supposedly being a hybrid that counts a few states out. I know Michigan , for sure, has a law banning the ownership of hybrids. Really though she doesn't look to have much wolf in her to me. But that's just MO.

Well, I have no proof of that at all. Just going but what I was told 3rd hand! So I don't think that would be a problem as long as we don't "advertise" her as a hybrid.
