I've Always Loved Flowers.......Meet Rose

[pomtzu]

Dasher sent you a rose !! - now that's pretty darn special in my book. A flower and a companion - all rolled into one! May you have MANY happy years together.

If she tends to leak when laying in one spot for too long, you might want to consider putting "panties" on her, especially at night. I did this for Myndi and it saved a lot of cleanup work. I also did the belly band for Sparky toward the end, since he had to take Lasix for his fluid buildup brought on by CHF. I bought them from a lady that custom makes each pair based on what the dog's measurements are and the fabric you choose. They were adorable, and the quality and price couldn't be beat. The ones that you buy in the stores are overpriced junk! Let me know if you might be interested and I'll send you her web site and you can look around.

Welcome to the PT Community, Rose. Be sure to have Mom send LOTS of pictures.

Here's a pic of Myndi modeling one hers. She hated them at first, but got used to them in no time.
Also one of the boy belly band, should you ever have need for something for a boy.

Oh Val, Dasher would be so proud of you and I'm sure this was his last will and testament:

Before humans die, they write their last will and testament, giving their home and all they have to those they leave behind. If, with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I’d ask…

To a poor and lonely stray I’d give my happy home; my bowl and cozy bed, soft pillow and all my toys; the lap, which I loved so much; the hand that stroked my fur; and the sweet voice that spoke my name.

I’d will to the sad, scared shelter dog the place I had in m human’s loving heart, of which there seemed no bounds.

So, when I die, please do not say, “I will never have a pet again, for the loss and the pain is more than I can stand.”

Instead, go find an unloved dog, one whose life has held no joy or hope, and give my place to him.

This is the only thing I can give…

The love I left behind.

Aw just LOOK at that face! She'll be loving everybody in no time.

Rose, you are so blessed. You are not only in your forever home, but a Pet Talk home. It doesn't get better than that!

Welcome home, sweet Rose! Val - bless you for rescuing this darling doggie!

I think Dasher sent her to you, that does look like a heart on Rose's head. good Luck, she is gorgeous.

Rose, sweety - you go find your mom now, and lay that big ol' head in her lap. She is missing Dasher something fierce, and could use some comfort and distraction.

[AdoreMyDogs]

Congratulations. She's lovely and I love her name. So feminine

[Freedom]

Gosh, don't know how I've missed this thread!

Rose is a pretty girl, Val. Give her some time to adjust, maybe she needs to learn to trust people again. She is now in a good place, a PT home. Very happy for both of you!

[shais_mom]

oh Val - I just came across this and am SO SO glad that you found her! She is beautiful!! Reminds me of my Brodie! Can't wait to hear more about her!

[Karen]

And Val, I was thinking about her the other day - there are late-blooming roses in a parking lot verge I was at, and I thought of your Rose!

[Sowa]

She's beautiful Congrats
