COCO, LIZZIE AND ELWOOD

Coco came into rescue In March along w Gwennie. 

I keep you updated on Gwennie.  Here she wants my food.  I put her to my side but that wasn’t good enough. She went around me, trying to sneak in through my arm. 😂

Coco loves her family and she watches the neighborhood to protect them. 

She is now house trained and loves walks.  (Gwennie has made great progress, too.)

Lizzie has tried to get Coco to play.  Much to her delight, Coco has joined in! 

Other family dogs come too and they just blend in. 

When Coco came, Elwood became a big brother. 

Coco found her “best ever” forever home.  💖
 

BOGIE, SWEET BOY

Bogie was my foster in 2021. Wow I adored him.  But Paddington did not. 

Bogie is older now and I wondered how it would be to see him again a few weeks ago.  Would he remember me?  

I was SO HAPPY because when he saw me, he paused and then his body started wiggling.   I loved it!!  He remembered me!  Many fosters move on and forget you.  That’s ok because the goal is to find them loving families. 

But it’s so joyful when they do know who you are. 

Bogies sister Daisy had never met me before our get together.  

She wasn’t too sure but she let me talk to her. 🥰

He was so good.  I guess Paddington must have been the fight starter. 

His sister Rey was there too.  All PVPC alumni. 

All the Peke guests received Halloween toys.   I don’t know about Bogie and Rey, but Daisy loved her.  It was heart touching to see so many we had helped.  

(The get together was a Christmas Peke reunion and also dogs who were adopted this year.)

CAMPING?

Do you like camping in an RV when it’s cold?  Taz and Missy Mistletoe love to go camping. 

For this view, I’d go camping, in an RV.  Autumn colors are awesome. 

They have a golf cart so they see more. 

They look like they’re very comfortable. 

It’s going to be 38 degrees there.  Grab an extra blanket little ones. 🍂🍁🥮
 

GWENNIE AND GRASS SEED

We had our yard aerated and seeded this week.  

Gwennie is very forlorn.  

She decided that grass seed is yummy.  She also likes mulch, acorns.  She thought the new grass seed was a snack. 😩

With the gate across the deck entrance, Piper was also sad. 

“LET US OUT!”

Tuk Tuk doesn’t eat grass seed. 

Tuk Tuk, can you tell her to stop? 

No one else is impressed w the grass seed.  Only Gwennie.  She like fresh poop, too, so that says something about her taste. 😵‍💫

The rest are content.   Gwennie wants a snack. 😂
 

CINNAMON AND SPIDERS

I know mentioning spiders made you cringe.  Did you know that we see more spiders in autumn?   I’ve noticed some big ones!  

I think one stung Cinnamon.  There was a big swollen area on her left “lip.”   She didn’t bother it.  It was definitely a hard swollen spot.   My first reaction was “go to the vet.”   But I decided to watch it, gave her some allergy meds.  It didn’t seem painful when I touched it. It didn’t get in the way of her eating. 

None of the rest have been stung.  Pippi and Paddington are glad they’re ok. 

Gwennie would chase a spider if she saw one. 😩 

Spiders are inside and out.  

Cinnamon’s mouth is better. The swelling is gone and the pink spot is smaller.    Have you seen spiders where you live?  I haven’t seen so many before.  
 

MARLOWE—PENDING ADOPTION

Marlowe came into rescue in June.  His mom could no longer care for him.  She asked us to help.

His foster family loves him.   

Marlowe learned to be part of a dog family too.  Winter and Todd made him welcome.  And look who is on his foster dad’s lap. 😉.  A member of their family is going to adopt him. They can’t imagine him not being part of their extended family.  

For now, Marlowe has his walking team-- when Winter decides she will walk, too.  Todd is always up for a walk.  Sometimes Winter just wants to watch.  LOL

Marlowe is one happy boy.   He will have his foster and adoptive family forever.  💙
