foster dog

[CHICHICK]

Hi Guys!!
Its been a while since I posted.
I am getting a new foster dog tonight.
She is the cutest mutt!
Came out of a kill only shelter in GA, a rescue
here in Florida drives up a couple times a month and
brings them to rescue/foster/adoptors.
This shelter does not adopt out to the public, all dogs are gassed
unless a rescue steps in. They say my girl is so sweet but needs a bath bad,lol. She is schnauzer and lab we think, a couple years old.
I will post pics when I get her home, settled and bathed.
There was just no way I could let her be gassed!!
More to come....

Thanks guys!!
I am too!
I want to meet her first and then I will come up
with a name for her. Poor girl,she was left at animal control,
tied to a fence with 2 other female dogs. Other rescue s are taking them.I have 5 of
my own dogs so hubby may have strangled me if i took more than one lol.
She is so cute, iI promise to post pics!! I am just waiting for the call now.
I will keep you posted!!!

Hi guys!!
I got her and got her settled, she is sooooo cute!!
We will get pics tonight.
She is very, very skinny and has a cough but other than that she is playing and loves to
get in my lap.
Her new name is Layla!

I didn't either until recently.
They gas the dogs once a week. They do allow a rescue group to go in and pull dogs but no one from the public.
We pulled 15 dogs total coming to Florida I think. There were several tiny puppies as well. I really wanted to take one or two more but hubby was with me and said NOOO!!
Camera is charging and then the long await pics will come!!!
