Something happened a few weeks back and I had to make it right. I couldn't fix that, so I tried to make all well in cosmos, by getting involved with 2 dogs that were to be executed without chance of adoption from MCACC. The B4 pictures are pretty disturbing, so I think it best not to post them here. But the 'after's are posted. No rescue will step in to rehome them, and while my husband agreed to 'foster' for a few weeks, he did not mean indefinitely. I am getting concerned that I will come home one day and find he has returned them to the pound. That would so not be cool.
Desperate for long term foster care - until a rescue will accept them, or new permanent homes:
Both are 8 months old. Neither will grow to full size because of how they were neglected before.
The brown one is a girl, we are calling her Hope. With all the other problems we were fighting, she is now diagnosed with Tick Fever and Valley Fever. Her meds will run about $100 a month, probably for about 4 months. She is very sweet and needs a quiet environment. She is not healthy enough to be spayed yet, but improving every day. She is 24 pounds. Still the perfect lap size and she loves laps. Gentle kids should be ok, but no rowdy ones. She is still not at 100% and still believes people will hurt her. That being said, no growling, no biting. Just fear. Comes with a free crate and lifetime free babysitting. She is very subdued and would like a quiter environment.
The spotted one is the boy. I am calling him Slugger. He is healthy enough to be neutered, and I can cover that. However, he has a condition called Demodex mange that will require treatment in the form of daily ivermectin for months. Demodex is not contageous to people, cats, or even other dogs. To put it as plainly as possible, it is his own skin fauna taking over. The ivermectin is I think worst case senario, $30 a month, basically until all of his hair grows back. This boy is really sweet and would love to have children around him. There is not enough good to say about him. He is 28 pounds right now. Like Hope - free crate, lifetime free babysitting.
In either case, if it doesn't work out, send him or her back. Just PLEASE keep them on the meds in the meantime.
Information as to their history and the pics I can not show, are on my facebook - search Kate Goodhart. There is yet a 3rd foster on my Facebook as well. He is through a rescue, and their info is on my facebook page. He needs a home too, but that has to go through the rescue. Hope and Slugger are my primary concern at this point.
602-920-5866 is better than PM if interested in meeting either of these kids.
PS: Their pics actually make them look larger than they are. They are both in the larger beagle size range.
