    I suck at fostering (jennie_c_d)

    I can let puppies go, but not seniors. Just thought you guys should know, NEVER ask me to foster an old dog you don't want me to keep!!

    I suck at it too. But congrats on your new dog :p

    You're keeping Jewel?????  Man, I've missed a lot in the last week.  I'm so happy for you and all (three!) of your girls! Party!!!

    • Gold Top Dog

    Sometimes they just end up where they need to be.  She's so lucky she's part of your family. :)

    What, who?  When did you start fostering this girl?  I need details!!!  Oh & a picture or 2. :)

     I got her on Sept 30. She's an 8 year old IG that was due to be euthanised that week, and Oct 1, before I could get a transport arranged, she came into season. Soooo.... I (stupidly) offered to hang onto her, since I only have girldogs. Now, it's been almost a month, and the silly little girl has settled right in. She loves the girls. She loves her clothes, and her collars. She's an awful, rotten, horrible house dogBig Smile She came house trained, and quiet. She's wash n wear. She'll be spayed, this week.

     

    Oh, her owner's new boyfriend's dogs didn't like her. That's why she got her death sentence. New. Boyfriend. She's a lovely, little, purebred, wash n wear dog with a good 8-10 years left in her. Ridiculous.

    This is the day I brought her home. I'll get new ones for you soonBig Smile

    Fostering Fail!

    Whatever you do, Jennie, DON'T try to tell me that 3 is ''just as easy'' as 2. I DO NOT need another dog, LOL.

    Welcome HOME, Jewel!!!

    I'm with you, Megan.  I do NOT need the temptation, lol.

    Jackie, you're such an enabler. Wink

    Seriously, though, Jewel's previous owner was obviously a stinker, but she is one lucky chick to have you now (and Ena and Emma...her new sisters!).

     I could never foster...even if I had the time to devote to it (and a not so insane flat coat in the house). I wouldn't be able to do the letting go part at all. I LOOOVE IG. Jewell is utterly adorable and I'm so happy for all of you. Sometimes it's OK to suck at something :)

    • Gold Top Dog

     I didn't want to say it earlier and be a terrible enabler, but I am sooooooooo happy you're keeping her, because she is an absolutely ADORABLE complement to your pack. lol! The mostly-hairless, the hairy-but-not-really, and then the normal-coat. All in miniature. It's perfect!! Stick out tongue

    • Gold Top Dog

     LOL, You are absolutely right, Cita. She is soooo tall, though! Not sure what to do with the TALL!

     

    And Meg, three is a smidge harder than two, because Jewel and Emma are slightly touchy. Jewel is a smidge socially inept. She leapt from the back of the couch, yesterday, and LANDED ON EMMA! Whoa. Wrong move, doofy face. Emma is being incredibly good, though, and has accepted her.

    Pirate lands on Tiki sometimes, but she just bites him, LOL. Weren't you going to send me that nice, SOFT, crestie you had? Puh-lease?
