    Default I Am A First Time Foster Parent!!!!

    All the waiting and teasing and torturing was worth it, I hope!!!

    Introducing.......................

    MAX!!!


    I have him for a week from the rescue lady to see if he can be separated from his sister successfully. He is 18 months old and was surrendered by his stupid owner after she bought his and his sister as puppies, straight after her other pug had died after being left outside on the hottest day on record new year's day last year. She couldn't keep these two now as she had a fight with her mum. Lucky for Max and his sister!! They were kept outdoors. He is a sweetie, just de-sexed and very busy. Puck and LouLou are making their minds up about him.

    Here he is arriving with Anne from Pug rescue.


    Look at this face - in his little bed that came with him.


    I put him straight in a belly band.

    Check out the PugVillage Books - buy one from HERE and help rescue.

    Rona and the Principessas Imogen and Pearl. Holding in our hearts forever LouLou and Puck who have been reunited at the Bridge.
    All my babies at the Bridge - LouLou, Puck, Piaff, Donato, Persia, Dragon, Smugs, (Pugs) and Madam and her son Woolfie (horses).

    Oh, Rona, he is adorable! And so lucky to have you as a foster mom. Here's hoping the girls take to him and vice versa. Congratulations!

    If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then give him only two of them.

    He is an exceptionally cute boy. Now, more important: what does LOULOU think?

    Awwww Rona
    He's soooo handsome.

    Does this mean we can forsee a first time foster failure in the near future (upon the ladies approval of course)
