Not so new Foster Pup

Part of what I've been doing the last couple of months is taking care of my foster pup Declan who came to me with a terrible case of Demodex Mites and a vicious yeast infection.  He was on anti-botics for a long time and has been on ivomectin for the his mange for even longer.  He is doing so GOOD though and I want to share a couple of before and after pictures with you! 

By the way Declan will be available for adoption in about 1 month.  You should run don't walk to get your app in for this guy, he is really a prize and I say that with all seriousness.  From the moment he walked into my house when he was so sick he has been the best little patient.  He was just happy for the attention he was receiving I guess.  We guess that he is not too old maybe about a year and this boy has no bad habits like a puppy always has.  He never chews anything he's not supposed to, he doesn't dig, he doesn't carry off valuable items he finds at his level.........ie glasses, remotes, phone as some of my past foster have, who will remain nameless.  He is just a happy go lucky boy.  His only problem is he will sometimes bark at stuff and I'm blaming that on the demondog Noah who has taught him to use his voice!! 

Anywho on with the pictures.

 

As you can see he has come along way!!  I always new he would be a hadsome boy!

Okay that all I got for now.  Thanks for checking in I'll post more when I can.

New Fur Children Pictures!

This is Shelby with the red collar, a stray I picked up a year ago July who delivered 10 puppies 2 weeks later! That's a whole other story for another time. The one on the right is one of Shelby's babies, the only one of the pups that I kept, his name is Rodney (named after my little brother) and he is my little angel , I say that figuratively as he weighs about 75 pounds! Seriously though he is the sweetest thing, when he isn't busy destroying something, after all he is still a puppy! I guess when you help bring something into the world like I did him you can't help but be extra attached. In this photo, he's been bothering his Mom and she's gotten tired of it and is putting him in his place. They still have a mother/son bond after more than a year, I find that interesting as normally experts will tell you they don't retain that relationship.

I took these photos this past Saturday. When I get the camera out the pups usually have one of a couple of reactions. They either will not back up a enough to get a good picture, they want to actually stick their noses on the lens. The other is they hide!! In these Rodney is doing pretty good, he is actually trying to act like he doesn't know I'm even there!!

Here his resolve is beginning to diminish, as you can see him starting to cut his eyes in my direction trying to figure out what I might be doing all the time without actually letting me know that he is even interested.

In this one he has lost the battle, he can ignore me no longer. He looks as if to say, Mom that's enough, put the camera up!!!

I've got more photo's of the other dogs for you to meet, I'll post those another day. I don't want to overwhelm you all at once. That's alot of beauty to take in all at once!!! LOL

New Doggie pictures

I've had several of you ask when I was going to post more doggie pictures......well the pups and I had a photo shoot (LOL) this past weekend, they were all pushing for their time in the spotlight and I got some cute ones (just kidding on that, some of them are afraid of the camera and hide).....I hope to download those this evening and get them ready for posting. So maybe within the next day or so I will be posting a few. Thanks for asking!! I love to show off my babies!
