ONTO A FAMILY

Yesterday was a big day for Koda. 

He needs eye surgery but they wanted to foster to adopt him.  They would help him through surgery and healing. 

We met at my new house (w boxes all over).   I showed them how to put in his eye drops.  It’s like trying to put them in a gorilla 😵‍💫.  I hope Koda will realize that the drops make his eyes feel so much better. I could see the difference in one day. 

He found a mini ball at my house and he loved it.  It went w him to his forever home.   He will get to sleep in the bed and be cherished for the rest of his life.   He is a precious boy. 🥰

WELCOME KODA

We were asked to help an 8 month old puppy. 

He needed medical help.  As soon as I saw him, I called the ophthalmologist.  They said they’d fit him right in.  My great vet also fit him in right after the ophthalmologist.  

He’s a baby.  He’s so sweet.  Once we got to the house, Gwennie was bossing him.  😂

The ophthalmologist checked his eyes in every way. 

He needs canthroplasty surgeon. He also needs nasal fold surgery.  He needs multiple eye meds. 

Next we went to our vet.  She had said she would see him right away.  Everyone loved him.  Yep, that’s one of the techs holding him. 😍 she was in love. 😍

Back at my house, he wasn’t too sure about the steps. 

Gwennie showed him how. 

It was a long day for him.  So he sat w me on the couch. He gave me kisses, too. 😁

A little love after a big change for him.  At this time, we are not accepting applications for him   

Welcome to a new life sweet boy  😍

 

TOBYS APPOINTMENT

This face. 

Toby has the most precious face. 

I let him ride in the stroller so he didn’t walk too much.  

He has a sad look but he’s just lounging.  He could get used to this way of travel. 

Dickens went also. He needed his yearly flu shot.  Everyone loved seeing him. They remembered him as a skinny Christmas ‘24 rescue pup. They’re astounded by how much hair he has now. He was an almost hairless boy. 

Toby is still healing.  He has a plate and screws in one area of his pelvis but another area is still in the process of connecting so he can’t have too much activity. 
He had vaccines and his flu shot.  His ears were rechecked.  He’s doing so well.  

He was tired after all the attention. 

He was ready to go home!  

HELLO TOBY

 

Toby just came to my house this morning so I can take him to his 2 week post surgery check up  his foster mom volunteers at a shelter on Thursday.   

I put him in a small area and my dogs immediately had to say hi.   First, Dickens and Cinnamon had to go over. 

Then Gwennie joined in. 

All 5 showed up. Gwennie said LET HIM OUT. 

It got pretty crowded  

Don’t worry guys. We will be back soon!  I’ll post an update on Toby. 

GWENNIE HELPING

This packing stuff is getting old.  But the final move is next Friday the 29th.   So I’m BUSY!  (If I miss making some blogs, you know why.). 

That cabinet is empty and Gwennie is inspecting. Next job, paint them inside and out. 

A friend told me to take breaks. Do we do.  Why are you all staring. Go run around!  Not an active crew here. 

Gwennie helps in other ways- mam, that’s my yogurt. 

I’ve been sorting games, books, furniture. 

It’s not all going.  We bought a smaller house so some stuff just won’t go.  It’s one floor so our old dogs can get around better. 

There’s bags and boxes, desks, rockers, trunks.   

We’ve been here 28 years.  So we had lots of things built up.  I guess now we’re “building down.”  

Sometimes the dogs have to be behind a gate. They weren’t pleased. 😂

I do take breaks on my back porch which I have loved, especially when it’s raining.  

Cinnamon is ready to be in one place.  At the new house, she climbed into the toy bucket. She’s never done that.  I guess she wants to be there full time. 🏠
 

CAN WE HELP? YES!

 

I received a message last week to see if we could help this boy.

They had him since he was a pup.  

He just turned a year old and they felt he could use a family that had energy to match his. His new mom works from home so he will have company during the day.  

His name is Puddin Pie. 

He is about 17 pounds now. He’s a big boy. 

He’s loving and playful.   I began to think of an adopter and one person came to mind.  

My friends Peke had passed away and we had messaged back and forth.  I asked her if she was interested.  She was! 

Puddin Pie goes to his new home tomorrow. His owners talked to my friend and felt she would be a wonderful new mom.  I can’t wait to hear about his new adventures.  😍

HAPPY SUNDAY FROM SCOUT ANNABELLE

Scout Annabelle (formerly Iggy) wants to wish everyone a happy, restful day.  If you can take a few moments of quiet, refresh yourself.  😁

That’s what she will be doing. 🐾😴J
