Foster Dogs


Recommended Posts

I'm loving all the updates. I especially love that all the dogs are inside.

It must make you so happy KB that you are making a difference to the dogs and their new families. :)

Awww, thank you. I love getting the updates, too and it's nice that two sets of adopters have also become foster carers. I love seeing how beloved the dogs are. here's a photo of our former fosters and their new families

Cricket had an informal meet and greet today - if we have a foster, it usually comes with my husband to pick me up at work, so it's a chance for people at work to meet fosters. My husband gave him a bath and also put a bow tie on him :)

The potential applicants loved him so we'll do the formal yard check and meet and greet on Sunday and see how he goes. Fingers crossed he gets along well with their Golden Retriever and elderly cat ...

Not sure if people remember Nutmeg (from the Nutmeg and Smudge the puppies we nursed back from parvo). Here's her pound photo and the day she was adopted in August 2013 - her family drove from Victoria to Canberra to pick her up :)

She's living in Victoria now and doted on by her family

Another photo of Cricket while he was spending his day with his potential new family

They're on holiday now so the trial will start when they're back in town. Meanwhile, he's with us :)

We're doing gradual exposures to cats to desensitise him to them as he finds them very interesting.

Not content with being a flyball whiz, former foster Smudge (parvo survivor and adopted in August 2013) is now trying her paw at agility. We caught up with her when she was in town for an agility trial

Her new mum chequeredblackdog sent me some other update photos :)

Inspired by this post, , I did some Before and After thingies for our foster dogs, too. Not quite so dramatic as some of those photos because luckily none of our dogs were in that bad a state.

Awww, thanks all. We have wonderful families who have adopted our doggies. Cricket goes on trial this weekend and I am feeling all emo and sad ... he's so comfortable here and thinks this is his home. I know he'll be great though but look at this little face ...

Baxter's photo makes me giggle. He looks a bit like he's shocked he's been sprung with the cat lol.

Hahah, he does! Baxter is hilarious. He has a very expressive face. Look how pampered he is. This is when he's with his dad

This is when he's with his mum - they have shared custody of him following their divorce

And this is Sunny and the resident cat Cinnamon. Cinnamon didn't like Sunny at first but they now sleep together, lick each other's faces and are kind of friends :)
