October is Adopt a Pet Month! And since I'm an adopted Pet and my family continues to foster dogs for the rescue I came from, I thought I'd do an entry every week in October and introduce you to the foster dogs we've had!
Our first foster dog was Belle. She was a beauty!!! She was adopted out as a puppy from Homeward Bound and her family could no longer keep her, so they returned her at 2.5 years old! She was a Beagle/German Shepard mix.
 |
| This was when Mom first brought her home. |
 |
| Here we are after we got introduced and had some playing time. |
 |
| Once I decided she was OK, I showed her around the yard. |
 |
| We made sure to inspect the yard for intruders every day. |
 |
| We had to make sure things weren't hiding anywhere. |
 |
| Then she'd take my ball... and I'd chase her around |
 |
| I'd catch her and tell her that it was MY ball. |
 |
| Then I'd sit on her when she tried to talk back. |
 |
| We really got along great though! |
 |
| We kept Mom company when she wasn't feeling well. |
 |
| And I taught her how to sleep! |
 |
| Hehe looks scary, huh? We liked to play bitey faces! |
 |
| We enjoyed relaxing and napping together on the couch. |
 |
And I'd often sneak into her crate so we could sleep together
at night. |
 |
| Hehe! She was very silly sticking out her tongue!! |
 |
| And she really loved riding in the car! |
 |
| We had her for 2.5 weeks as a foster dog. |
Mom has a special place in her heart for Belle. She was a beautiful girl and so very well behaved. We got along great and I miss her very much! Mom loved her furever family and knows she'll have a safe place for the rest of her life! She is beautiful with her black eyeliner! -Hey Puddles, maybe she stole yours??? Ut-oh...
Oh, One more thing....
Mom would like to say a huge Thank You to everyone who wished her a happy day! She had a great birthday - of course, because she has me! And, apparently Mom celebrates her birthday for 20 days, not just 1 day! Go Figure. Almost an entire month all about my Momma! Sounds typical ;-) Her friends at work threw her a little party with cupcakes and ice cream! Mom was supposed to bring me home a cupcake but she forgot it... so I BETTER get it tonight! Or else! Dad and I also got mom a brand new camera! Now she has no excuses not to take even more pictures of ME! Once she gets it all figured out, she'll upload some new camera pictures!
