Many dogs have gone into fostering and Bobby is very happy after his turbulent affair at kennels. He ran away before christmas and we finally located him at a Hungarian couple who refused to give him up. After agreeing that they were, infact, a suitable home for Bobby we let them keep him. 3 weeks later we were contacted and told that Bobby was not going to be a part of their family after all and if we did not take him back they would give him to a shelter. Obviously we told them to give him back straight away - and back to kennel it was for poor Bobby. Now, however, he has go a great trio of fosterparents and we (and Bobby I am sure) are delighted!:)
We are Norwegian veterinary students who run a non-profit dog-rescue project in Budapest, Hungary. We focus specific attention on neglected and unwanted dogs and dogs in danger of euthanasia.

New arrival - Lexi
Lexi is a female viszla/lab mix who has been living in horrible conditions. Her owner died and the police were going to have her euthanized but we have agreed to take her on and she will be arriving on saturday. Dispite of having had such a sad existence in her little shed, she is apparantly a really lovely, tender girl who loves cuddles. We need a fosterhome for Lexi. If you would like to foster her, email budadogs@gmail.com

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 :)

New Dogs - Old Dogs
Alex
Bobby
Adam (reluctant to show his face!!)
Dogs come into our care for many different reasons. Our newest additions are Alex and Adam, plus Bobby is back after abit of a bothersome process.
Alex is from the kennels where we board our dogs for holidays etc. He was handed in by his owner for boarding months ago and the owner never returned to collect him. Alex is a beautiful, calm german sheperd male, aprox 2 years old.
Adam was found by a Hungarian couple on the motorway and he was almost hit by cars several times. They managed to save him and drove him to our kennels where he is now staying and needs a fosterhome if we do not locate his owners. We don`t know much about him yet - he is a wirehaired young boy, probably 1-2 years old, very skinny but friendly with lots of happy energy :)
Bobby was returned to us after Christmas. His Hungarian adopters who had so desperately wanted to keep him changed their minds quickly when Bobby proved himself an escape-artist (which was the reason he came to them in the first place - he ran away from kennels 2 days after arriving and wandered into their house - so one might say it was a "given") and also abit of a player with the neighbourhood ladies. Bobby is a typical "too smart for his own good sometimes" kinda dog- climbing the 3 m fence at kennels, hanging on to the wires while chewing a hole in the roof and popping through it. Not a task easily completed by any standard!? He is sorely looking for a fosterhome because he obiously will do anything to avoid kenneling. Bobby is quite a big boy. Very happy and loving but we need to channel his energy abit. He`s one of those dogs who has been left to his own devices his entire life and has created an idea in his head about how life should be lived. We just need to persuade him that "teamwork" actually isn`t too bad a concept ;)
A welcomed addition!
Last week I was contacted by the Internal med. department at uni regarding a big female they had found. They were looking for the owner but wondered if we could take her on meantime and if the owner was not found, could we take her permanently. Colm, being a fan of the big doggies, went and collected her and took her home. He named her Mia.
A week or so later the uni told me that they had infact located the owner but they were not interested in getting the dog back, so Mia-the-great is now officially a Budadog. She will remain in fostering with Colm and isn`t she a beauty? :)) With some TLC and a good bath this gentle giant is going to sparkle :)
