    I cannot go home until she finds a home ...
    I have nowhere for her to go yet.
    Plan B ??

    * Get 4 cinder blocks to raise da BigBed for a Dublin House
    * Teach her "Shhhhhh - QUIET! No Bark!"
    * Teach her to "Walk like Simba"
    * Teach them both never to walk through the house *Together*!

    With a lil Luck, the Folks will never notice.

    I wish it were that easy! Unfortunately, no one has responded as far as taking her yet.

    Kay, you've done a wonderful job looking for and finding homes for these two.
    I wish you all the luck in the world that a home for Dublin is found VERY soon.

    I'm currently at my sister's for the night. Dublin is sleeping in her crate in the garage.

    I was able to see my four for 10 minutes or so today and the whole time I was there I cried. I hate this so much but I cannot just dump this puppy. She's been through too much for ME to fail her now.

    I work at 6 or 7am (?) tomorrow and hopefully she will have a home by the time I get off work. If not, I'm not sure where we're going to stay. Hopefully my sister's boyfriend wont mind us for another day/night.

    I'm going to call my vet and ask how much a skin scraping would be to make sure her mange is gone. Monday was her last day of medicine. If It's not too much I'll walk her over there to get it done and have her checked out again.

    Please hope for the best. I'm not a religious person by any means but I've been "praying", hoping, dreaming, wishing a lot lately for something good to come our way. Hopefully someone is out there listening to my mindless rambling.

    Kay, do you have connections with dog sports people? In my experience, I have to say that sports folk are often multi-dog households (and constantly adding, too ).

    Because Dublin is so highly trainable and a good breed/build, I think he could very well find a home with some sports folks. Plus, you'll be targeting a very wide, intensely dedicated population versus run-of-the-mill-Craigslist-browsers.

    It's NOT 'mindless rambling'!

    Check the Yellow Pages for ads by "Dog Training Clubs" and/or Doggy Day Cares ...
    "Visit" as many as you can - showing Dublin off to a potential Adopter may
    help cinch the deal.

    I don't know where you live, Kay, but look for flyball teams in your area at www.flyballdogs.com under "Teams". She would probably make a great sporting dog!

    I'm sorry to hear of all the trouble you've gone through to find these two beautiful pups homes. I hope you are able to find a place for Dublin soon! Good luck!

    Dublin is currently staying with my brother, his girlfriend, her two boys, and their two pups until we can find her a home. They said they can watch her as long as needed.

    Which means I got to come home last night and see my babies! I was SO happy. <3

    I'm looking into getting her rechecked for mange and starting off her puppy shots as it would be easier to find her a home, but I've got to get my money situation adjusted beforehand.

    Here are some photos of her over the past week.

    More coming...

    Thanks a bunch Phred for the additional help! As a thanks to my brother and family, I bought dog food for their dogs as well as Dublin before I brought her over there.


    Those strange faces are AnimalHouse's crew -
    from left to right,
    Tyson, Kiara, Mufasa, Nala, Falise, Jazzy (her foster), and wee little Dublin!



    We are really working on my sister's neighbor to adopt Dublin. He and his family first met Dublin when I had her the first time. The husband and kids REALLY want her, the wife needs some *work.*



    Here are some photos my brother's girlfriend took and uploaded on her MySpace today;





    She LOVES to be held...

    Oh Kay!!! She is such a little doll. She looks like a perfect little lovebug. Bless you for caring so much about her. I have fallen seriously in love with her. Anyone can see why you love her so much.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

And she has had nothing but Love and attention she never would have gotten if she was stuck on the street! Yes, it has been a rough road with her. She just needs a special home! And there is one out there for her!
