Say Goodbye to My Little Friend

Congratulations to Patches! She was adopted out tonight! Nell got her freedom back and laying on the snuggle ball without being defensive or jumpy. Patches, it was nice fostering you and I hope you learned your lesson. Don't start a fight with a bigger dog. 5 staples in your leg should have made you learn the lesson... but somehow, I don't think it'll stop you. Crazy girl! 

Remember Tucker?

I got these pictures from Tucker's mom. Don't they look awesome? I think we need to create a greeting card out of these... very professional! He is now a New Yorker! I think he looks awesome in his puppia harness too. His nickname is "Go Go Tuck" and he's having a great time in the city. 

Fundraising Ideas?

Meet Star... She's our newest foster. She's being fostered for few days before getting adopted out to the new family on Saturday. She's VERY friendly... and VERY CUTE! Over the past month, we've had a lot of bostons come through out foster system... and it shows... we got our vet bills. :-( We need to do some SERIOUS fundraisers... so if you have any good ideas... PLEASE share. 

Nell's been TAGGED!

Don't Mess with Me

Nell is patiently waiting to be the only child again. I've decided after Patches gets adopted out, I will hold off on rescuing until Nell feels confident that she can once again share her house with foster guests.

We had a really bad dog fight break out (Nell vs. Patches) last week, and although Patches started the fight, Nell finished it with putting her canine teeth marks on Patches ears, stomach, neck, and paws. Patches ended up with two staples in her leg. Nell wasn't kidding around. Nell has been walking on egg shells since and I feel I need to build back her confidence. I'm planning to take her to Ralley-O classes and working on obedience tricks more at home. Hopefully, by end of fall, she'll be ready. I will not be taking in any more dominant females. I know my limit. Also learned Nell's tolerance. It's ZERO when it comes to dominant bitches. As my BF would say... "Two bitches... what did I do to deserve this???" hahahah 

By the way, Nell saids HI!

It's been awhile since we had a picture of Nell on the blog... Nell had her yearly physical in July. Everything is going well and the vet was very happy to see Nell. Nell didn't feel the same tho... 

Is the dog bed too big?

La casa de Nell has been accepting visitors like crazy the past few weeks. Meet Ms. Patches. She had to spend the last week in the kennel since we didn't have any foster home for her. Poor thing... she's sooo sweet but she has been questioning Nell's alpha roles... We go to the vet for a check up tomorrow night. She is sooo skinny. I just looked through her records and it said that she used to weigh 23 lbs... IMPOSSIBLE!!!! She'll be lucky if she weighs 13 lbs. We shall see tomorrow.

In the rescue news... Daisy is back. Unfortunately, the new family did not work out for Daisy. Spread the word... We need good homes for Daisy... she's young, hyper, rude, and in need of disciplin, but overall, she is a GOOD DOG!
