This is Eliza.

This is Eliza's signature look.

She's foster puppy number...ten? Her little mangy Shar Pei noggin just couldn't be left behind!

She's about 4-5 months old and appears to be mostly Shep Pei (1/2 German Shepherd, 1/2 Shar Pei). That makes her sweet and smart. Within a day, she'd picked up sit! She loves to play fetch, but thinks her leash is the greatest toy in the world and doesn't understand why she can't sit in peoples' laps.

The demodex on her face is healing up nicely. This weekend she endured a borax/peroxide bath like a little angel.

Soon she'll get to go to adopt-a-thons - I'm sure she'll be a star!

First Foster Bunny

For months and months . . wait . . no years! ;) I have longed to foster a bunny. I love bunnies. Bunnies are my 'thing'. I have had them since I was six years old.

Bunnies are awesome and wonderful . . . and mis-judged, mis-treated and mis-used.

I have spent the last 6 years working with a very traumatized bunny. My darling, dear Abby~Gail. Who now trusts me completely. There is nothing quite so rewarding as a bunny's trust. Way too many people miss out on this . . .

So one of my goal was to Foster darlings . . . help warm them up to trusting people again. And sharing the bunny love! ;) I have studied and studied and studied . . .

Well, this Mr. kinda ruined my lovely speech up there. ;) Because he is already a friendly, people loving darling. We have a few small issues we gots to iron out. But other than that . . . . all he needs is TLC. And we are having toooo much fun with that.

His owners sadly had to send him to the shelter, due to financial problems. His name is Dusty! But he has no idea.

I wanted to name all of my bunny fosters after herbs . . . like Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme. So he may be Mr. Comfrey. I haven't decided . . or he may be Dusty still. :) What do you think?

First steps into his new suite. He is lovin all the space to dance!

Delilah

♪ A thousand miles seems pretty far

But they've got planes and trains and cars ♪

♪ Delilah I can promise you

That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame ♪

We were able to send this darlin Delilah, on her way to a foster home tonight . . .

It makes me happy.

Thought I would share. :)

I adore dogs named after songs! There was another American Bulldog that we named a song title and I very much regret it. The darling didn't make it and now I bawl my eyes out every time I hear that song. Not good. I love this breed. It breaks my heart how many rarely walk out of shelters.

But 'Hey There Delilah' is forever a good song! I'm so happy for this sweetie and that she will have the opportunity to live a happy life!

You may listen to 'Hey There Delilah' over at ActuallyLaura.
