GRANGER COMES TO VISIT

Granger, Tuk Tuk and Gigi live closer now that we’ve moved.   

I saw Granger yesterday. He’s 14 now and is on 3 heart medications. His heart is enlarged but he just keeps going. He’s slower but still a happy boy. He has syncope so we have to be careful with him.

Tuk Tuk is still a wild child and he comes to my house every time they visit.

Piper noticed they had arrived.

Granger immediately found an air conditioner register.  Yes, that was where he would stay. 

I walked toward the laundry room and everyone ran w me.  Nope, I'm not feeding you.   

You have to wait a little longer.  

Tuk Tuk is still young and runs full tilt in the yard at his house-- I still have xpens making a small yard at my house but it's plenty to see the squirrels and deer.  Lots of deer.  (A fence is on the list of things to do, but the list is long so it will be a while.)

Time to go home Granger and Tuk Tuk.   My granddaughter and I have been working hard and we're both going to sleep early.   I think Granger will, too.   

TINY DUO

This tiny duo are in their foster home. They saw the vet yesterday.  When they were weighed, they were smaller than we thought. The one w the white on her is 7.8 pounds.  Wow. Little!    

The smaller one is only 6 pounds!  She’s probably the smallest adult Peke we’ve ever taken in.  She needs a dental.  She also has breathing issues and needs stenotic nares surgery.  It will help her breathe so much better. 

Their foster is trying to decide the best names for them.  Were brainstorming.  They’re so petite!  What would you name this pair. I have ideas. I’ll see if you have the same ones.  Their foster mom will enjoy reading what your names are.  So will I!  🌸
 

ANOTHER?

 

Rescue has been busy. We took in Marlowe and the bonded black Pekes.  Now I’m working on this beauty.  Sometimes we help by taking them in as fosters. Sometimes we are able to connect people to find a new home.    

Between rescue and unpacking, my dogs needed attention. I brushed Dickens a lot. He came w almost no hair and now he has SO much hair. We were outside because he can have a lot come out during brushing.  Hair was sticking to the deck, flying in the air, sticking to my clothes and tickling my nose.  

I groomed Piper and Paddington who both needed hair trims.  After we finished, they went back to guarding the yard. Deer show up often, usually early or later.  The boys have seen many, so now they wait.  

Tuk Tuk takes on deer seriously!   If one jumps the fence into his yard, he’s flying, barking all the way. That deer sprang over that fence in a flash. 

Dickens can’t see them.  And he doesn’t really care. He’s not a fighter. He just wants me and his toy.  Life for him is good.  

I’ll keep you updated if/when we get the new boy.  🐾

MARLOWE’S NEXT ADVENTURE

Marlowe was w me for five days and yesterday, he was off to his foster home.  

During his five days here, I found he was the highest leg lifter I’ve seen. 😂. I found that he was having accidents but he also had a bladder infection.  Ouch. Belly bands are in use.  

Winters mom came to get Marlowe yesterday.  She was thrilled to meet him and got right on his level.  He responded so well.  He could see the love right away. 

Over he rolled for a tummy rub. 

Then he walked a little.  He does like walks!   

After visiting for a while, it was time to head to his foster home.  He was going to meet Winter and Todd!  

Marlowe and Todd had to check each other out and I think they liked each other.  Marlowe made so many new friends this week!  Piper, Paddington, Cinnamon, Dickens, and Gwennie- the Camp Runamuck gang. 😍

Marlowe will be set up for a neuter and probably a dental. All his labs were done at my vet. He’ll soon be ready for his forever home.  New life continues.  

 

BUSY BUSY

I’ve been moving and it’s almost done. The house goes on the market this week.   BUT rescue doesn’t stop no matter how busy you are. 

The owner of this bonded pair passed away so they needed help.  Both girls are adorable and small.  They went to a foster to adopt home yesterday.  (I use a list of approved adopters who have already submitted applications.) 

Marlowe goes to his foster home today.  He’s just over 10 pounds and needs to gain weight. We can help him do that.  

He belonged to a woman so I thought he’d like me best.  But he loves my husband. 😍. There’s another Peke in need so I’ll work on that today.   We’ll need to do a fundraiser because some have needed or will need extensive care.  It’s what we do.  I get to love so many of them- even if it’s only for a little while at my house. 

And I have the best foster homes.  Thank you to all who have made rescue possible!  

 

WELCOME TO RESCUE

We just took in a bonded pair.  They are under ten pounds.  Yesterday was BUSY so I’ll post more later. They are safe and will begin their new life now. 

We are contemplating new names.  We found out they were both girls so we need girl names.  They are on their way to their foster home today. They need medical help especially for their breathing.  We are not taking applications at this time   

Welcome to rescue little ones!! 
 

NONO NOELLE

NONO

Nono (Noelle) was in the second group of the Christmas rescue. 

She was tiny and it took months for her digestive system to work well. When a dog is malnourished, healing takes time. She also had no hair on her back or chest. 

She’s still a small one but look at her now.  So healthy!! 

It looks like she is posing for us. 🥰 she is beautiful. 

She was very timid and still likes her people only. It’s ok. She has a family for life. 🐾😍
