New semester, lots of action :)
Pedro
Lita - after recovering from rat-poision
Luna - it was a close call for a while but she has also recovered.
The new semester has rolled into its second week and we have so many lovely new dogs for the upcoming semester. Today Betty and Dorothy went into their respective fosterhomes.
We have recieved a new dog from Ullò - a massive german sheperd male we named Axel. He is a force to be reckoned with but totally sweet and we hope some "stand-up-guy" is interested in giving him the new chance he so obviously needs. (He`s the kind of dog you just know belongs to a man).
We also have new arrivals Lita and Luna who will be brought to us shortly. The two females were poisoned with rat-poison after spending several years living near a factory and were found and nursed back to health by our friends in Heves. I agreed to pay for their treatment and take them on once they recovered. It was touch and go for poor Luna for a while, but she has now recovered completely and both dogs need fosterhomes. They are really charming, grateful girls.
Rosie has been rehomed to a lovely lady in Norway and will be travelling shortly. Her fostermums have taken on their second fosterdog who we aptly nick-named "Teppe" ("blanket" in English - due to his uncanny resemblance to one). Fostermums have now given him a "proper" name - Ralphie.
New short-leg arrival Pedro has also gone into fostering. He was found chained to a tree for no apparant reason and with no owners in sight and according to people in the area he had been there for a very very very long time. He has the coolest disposition imaginable - so loving and happy!
Tomorrow Caroline is flying to Norway with Brutus and Scout where loving new families await them. Brutus`familiy has been patient and waited for several months after choosing him early on so we are very happy they finally are able to welcome their new member into their home.
Scout has been rehomed to Bergen and its beautiful countryside which he will be sharing with 2 cats and a german sheperd boy - and his new dad :)
