View Full Version : My little foster girlies.
Moonbird 11-04-2008, 21:49 I would like you all to meet the pupsters (http://s35.photobucket.com/albums/d159/5critters/?action=view¤t=DaveJilldogsandcats116a.jpg), Ruby (http://s35.photobucket.com/albums/d159/5critters/?action=view¤t=DaveJilldogsandcats109.jpg) and Ria (http://s35.photobucket.com/albums/d159/5critters/?action=view¤t=DaveJilldogsandcats110.jpg), they are staying with me until they are old enough in a couple of weeks to go to lovely new homes of their own :love:
They are fitting in here too well and are so lovable (shame about the ruined smelly rug can anyone lend me a dyson please :hihi:).
Kira adores them and is trying to be mummy even though she is just a pup herself :love: Kira and Pupsters (http://s35.photobucket.com/albums/d159/5critters/?action=view¤t=DaveJilldogsandcats120.jpg).
All in the moon house is peaceful for 5 mins while they all sleep :)
Awhh how cute. They look like they could be mischevous.
They are absolutley beautiful :love: Do you have homes for them yet?
shihtzumad 11-04-2008, 22:32 aint they cuties u have your handsful moonbird, but i bet you are enjoying ever bit :)
Moonbird 11-04-2008, 22:58 Hmm very mischevious :hihi: but then what 6 week old puppies aren't... I forgot what its like I'm used to taking on older dogs.
I must admit I am totally smitten by these two, I am enjoying them loads, and going to find it hard to part with them.
No Banjo they don't have homes yet, they are staying with me for another couple of weeks....these babies are going to make some lucky people really happy, and going to make gorgeous dogs I think, although I might be biased a bit :)
Aww, they look lovely!
Are they wearing the cat collars you bought from me, by any chance? Bless, they must be tiny!
Moonbird 11-04-2008, 23:20 Aww, they look lovely!
Are they wearing the cat collars you bought from me, by any chance? Bless, they must be tiny!
They are wearing the cat collars and they are massive on them, pupsters are really small :hihi: so much for me having nice spare collars for the cats, and Oliver has lost his again now :rolleyes:
I wanted them to feel like they belonged somehow... I know it sounds daft, but wearing a collar is what dogs do isn't it when someone cares about them :hihi:
What a lovely thought about them belonging with the collars - and no it's not daft! Do you know what breed they are Moonbird?
Moonbird 12-04-2008, 00:08 What a lovely thought about them belonging with the collars - and no it's not daft! Do you know what breed they are Moonbird?
Not really... they are cross bred puppies, but definitely some kind of terrier, Ria is quite rough haired and has a definite look of border terrier I think, Ruby is smooth haired and her tail arches over her back.
They are currently being really naughty shredding their wee wee papers :suspect:
aww, they are gorgeous :love:
look at kira being mummy lol
would love to hear her views on them (hint hint :hihi: lol)
Moonbird 12-04-2008, 10:13 look at kira being mummy lol
would love to hear her views on them (hint hint :hihi: lol)
Hmmm I think she has been working her way up to that because I've seen her sneaking around the PC quite a bit lately :suspect:
But in poor Kira's defence she has been very busy lately :D
loopylass 12-04-2008, 11:47 Aww Moonbird they are soooooo cute. ME WANTS :love::love:
Moonbird you softie - they are lovely. So lucky someone came along to foster them and I'm impressed with how Kira is taking to her new role too. Hope the rug and other furnishings recover and that the babies get loving new homes soon
Innocence 12-04-2008, 23:57 aww they are gorgeous!!
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 19:31 Its looking like Ruby and Ria are going to a lovely new home next week, I know I should be :D but I'm not I'm :cry: we all love the pupsters :help:
Are they going together, MB?
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 19:56 Are they going together, MB?
Yes they are going together to what sounds like a fantastic home in the Lincolnshire countryside, I am home checking them Sunday but I think they will pass with flying colours :sad:
Best of luck to the little girlies.
I bet they're so glad they're going together and I bet on some level you're glad they've fallen so lucky.
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 20:18 Yes your right Hel I am glad for them, how lovely that they can spend all of their lives together not many puppies get that do they? :)
And the place they are going to sounds fantastic, with acres of land attached for them to play in... I think my little girlies will think they are in heaven, the couple are young retired so at home all of the time, they are going to be so spoilt, so I'm very happy for all of that.
Just very sad cause I loves them so much :sad:
Rainrescue 15-04-2008, 22:27 Moonbird - did the lady come via the site today? I know a couple emailed me and sounded really nice - think they were lincolnshire area but said sheffield was a bit far to travel.
let me know if they go and we can take them off and onto the rehomed page - no doubt u will be getting calls for weeks if not.
pattricia 15-04-2008, 22:29 Bless, how lovely.:)
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 22:52 Moonbird - did the lady come via the site today? I know a couple emailed me and sounded really nice - think they were lincolnshire area but said sheffield was a bit far to travel.

Yes it sounds like the same couple, looks like they changed their minds about it being to far to travel then :hihi:
The lady sounded really excited and I have such good vibes about them and feel this will be right for the girls, but I am going to go and check it out just to be sure, I need to see in my mind where they are and that they are ok... cause I'm a big softy shhh :D
I'm thinking of asking if they will adopt me too :rolleyes:
Rainrescue 15-04-2008, 23:04 Yes - she sounded lovely earlier when I 'chatted' to her.
Well done to you and Snigs for helping these little babies out - fraid you don't come under the definition of puppy me dear.
SallyLaLaLa 15-04-2008, 23:06 Yes they are going together to what sounds like a fantastic home in the Lincolnshire countryside, I am home checking them Sunday but I think they will pass with flying colours :sad:
Aw, they are so cute, I'm so glad they're getting such a nice new home. I would LOVE a little dog like that but as me and the OH work full time it's a no go. One day.........
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 23:21 Yes - she sounded lovely earlier when I 'chatted' to her.
Well done to you and Snigs for helping these little babies out - fraid you don't come under the definition of puppy me dear.
Your right, if you were in my house right now you would know I could never pull it off I'm far to quiet :(
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 23:23 Aw, they are so cute, I'm so glad they're getting such a nice new home. I would LOVE a little dog like that but as me and the OH work full time it's a no go. One day.........
Aww they are cute but they are a handful :hihi: one day you will be able to pick yourselves a beautiful puppy that will need you just as much, theres never any shortage :)
fox20thc 15-04-2008, 23:24 thats the sort of pooch I'm after, a terrier x. :(
Moonbird 15-04-2008, 23:26 thats the sort of pooch I'm after, a terrier x. :(
Aww I thought that you wanted an older puppy though and male?
JarvisCocker 16-04-2008, 09:26 Arrr how lovely they're going to a nice home, and together too. Well done for giving them a good start in life.
I'm glad you've managed to find a good home for them.
I hope it goes well with the home visit.
msbehavin 16-04-2008, 16:12 thats the sort of pooch I'm after, a terrier x. :(
Yeah? There might be one available if he digs up my patio pots AGAIN to hide his chewy shoe...
Gaffer tape - that'll sort him out
let see him get his boots off if you gaffertape them on :D
Moonbird 18-04-2008, 19:49 Well my little girls are once again looking for a home... the lovely couple that wanted them so much now do not!
I am like this :rant: :hihi:
Never mind there is someone perfect out there who will be made very happy by one of these little ones.:)
Barney_T 18-04-2008, 21:10 oh Moonbird, sorry to hear that, I guess it just wasn't meant to be. At least you get to keep them for a bit longer
id want them to stay permanent lol you must have some real willpower Moonbird
Moonbird 18-04-2008, 21:48 id want them to stay permanent lol you must have some real willpower Moonbird
I would love for them to stay, they are lovely little things and I have fallen for them :hihi: but they are a handful, and 3 puppies plus 2 older dogs is just to much for one person no matter how smitten they are :help:
Barney_T 18-04-2008, 22:04 thats the sort of pooch I'm after, a terrier x. :(
what about this person?
I would love for them to stay, they are lovely little things and I have fallen for them :hihi: but they are a handful, and 3 puppies plus 2 older dogs is just to much for one person no matter how smitten they are :help:
i bet. you do a real good job with the animals you help :)
hopefully they will go to someone where you still see them as will "mummy" kira lol
Moonbird 18-04-2008, 22:34 what about this person?
Well I don't actually think the puppies are what she is looking for, but she knows where I am if I am wrong :)
Moonbird 18-04-2008, 22:35 i bet. you do a real good job with the animals you help :)
hopefully they will go to someone where you still see them as will "mummy" kira lol
I hope so that would make me really happy, I would love to keep in touch and know how they turn out :)
loopylass 22-04-2008, 14:40 I hope so that would make me really happy, I would love to keep in touch and know how they turn out :)
Hiya Moonbird any news on the home front for these 2 lovelies?
Moonbird 22-04-2008, 19:57 Hiya Moonbird any news on the home front for these 2 lovelies?
Yes some good news thank you for asking Loppylass :)
Ruby is going to a lovely new home tomorrow, its a lovely couple, no children, take long walks in the countryside as often as they can,really sensible and responsible and Ruby will be going to work with the man as soon as she is old and sensible enough.
There is a lovely garden for her to run about in, and have everything ready for her, cosy beds and a crate just for her, she will be sharing her new home with a bunny, I'm sure they will be friends and company for each other too, its just perfect just what I wanted for her, and they have promised to keep in touch and send me lots of pics of her growing up :D
Moonbird 22-04-2008, 21:16 You should hear Ria snoring, she snores like an old man :hihi:
Poor little things they are run ragged here :suspect:
I hope she won't miss her little sis too much bless her :|
Has Ria found anywhere yet? I'm so pleased for lovely furry Ruby with the curly tail!
Moonbird 22-04-2008, 21:28 Has Ria found anywhere yet? I'm so pleased for lovely furry Ruby with the curly tail!
No Ria hasn't found anyone yet, but she will, she's too pretty not to, they are growing so fast they look massive to me now after what they were like at first and Ruby is really heavy... shes a little porker :hihi:
loopylass 23-04-2008, 11:34 Yes some good news thank you for asking Loppylass :)

Ooo I'm looking forward to seeing them. Thanks Moonbird :)
Moonbird 23-04-2008, 17:17 Ruby has gone to her new home :), Ria looked for her for a while when she wanted to cuddle up for sleep, but then just settled in my chair, I feel really mean and sorry for them both but I know its for the best.
I'm sure Ria will be ok with a few extra cuddles, and she still has Mummy Kira to play with.
I'm going to work hard on Ria's house training now it will be easier with just the one :)
Oooh beautiful poopies, well done finding them lovely home
loopylass 01-05-2008, 12:50 Any news on Ria hun?
Moonbird 01-05-2008, 14:42 Any news on Ria hun?
Ria is fine thanks for asking, still here.....so is Ruby she was returned :(
There are new people interested though and having a look at her tonight so fingers crossed that this will be Ruby's forever home.
I haven't forgotten my promise of pics and I will pop a few on later tonight :)
Birth-Peace 01-05-2008, 14:44 Thats horrid about poor Ruby :(
Hope she finds the right home soon. Has Ria already found the right home, I'm thinking?
Moonbird 01-05-2008, 14:52 Thats horrid about poor Ruby :(

Moonbird 01-05-2008, 23:27 Well Ruby had her visitors, they stayed and played with the puppies for about an hour, I told them to go and think it through and let me know what they decide tomorrow, so fingers crossed for Ruby they seemed just right for her.

Moonbird 02-05-2008, 13:06 why was poor ruby returned :( poor girl :(
They felt that they hadn't really realised what having a dog entailed and weren't ready for the way it would change their lives...in a nut shell!

Rainrescue 02-05-2008, 22:24 Well done you Moonbird.
Fostering is hard work - and fostering puppies - is very stressful.
I am not good at rehoming puppies - so, believe me - you have done well.
Does that mean that they now (or will have) both got homes by the weekend?
Moonbird 02-05-2008, 22:26 Well done you Moonbird.

Rainrescue 02-05-2008, 22:27 Do you want to send a link over for the pics of just ria then, and we will update the site?

:) Your welcome to drop in for a puppy snuggle some time, just let me know if your ever over my way.
Aren't they just gorgeous though? on that last picture you can really see how different they are, different shaped faces, ears, eyes, and different coats...perhaps Ruby is like her Mummy and Ria like her Daddy, I would love to know.
:love: they are gorgeous!!!!
Moonbird 04-05-2008, 23:18 Good news Ruby... is going to her new family on Tuesday, I think she is going to make one little girl very happy by the sound of things :clap:

Ruby is a really pretty little girl, and very photogenic, she hasn't actually gone very far at all so I hope when we meet up to get lots of pictures of her, she is really leggy I can't wait to see how she turns out :)
Peace has returned to the Moon household :hihi:

:) Thank you she has got a sweet face,.
I can't say the last 6 weeks have been easy, but they are worth all of the effort, I have loved having them (mainly :hihi: )and I'm really proud of them both they are turning into gorgeous little dogs. :)
Rainrescue 06-05-2008, 13:05 Well done Moonbird - all peace and quiet in your houshold now then? (don't think so)
You have done a really good job and I am sure they will both be fine.
xxxnicolexxx 06-05-2008, 13:42 I cant believe that Ria hasent found a home yet, shes absolutely gorgeous. If i could guarantee that my dog Lola would be nice to her id be round to collect her in a flash.
im thinking ria does have a home :hihi: wonder when its going to be official:P
Moonbird 06-05-2008, 18:09 Well done Moonbird - all peace and quiet in your houshold now then? (don't think so)
You have done a really good job and I am sure they will both be fine.

JarvisCocker 07-05-2008, 13:43 I've almost had a little cry, but as I'm at work I've had to try and keep it together! What a lovely happy ending. Must make it all worth while Moonbird. And hopefully you'll soon get to see her again and see how she's come on. Bless.

Aww thank you pets@home but no need to thank me really I've loved having them here (mostly :hihi: )
Re the room errrr :suspect: LOL.
JarvisCocker 08-05-2008, 08:47 Yes a very big well done to Moonbird and all involved. It's a good job there are people like you around.
loopylass 10-05-2008, 14:40 Are you going to keep Ria Moonbird?
Moonbird 10-05-2008, 15:02 Are you going to keep Ria Moonbird?
:hihi: Ok I can see that I'm going to have to answer this one.
I'm not 100% sure if I will keep Ria or not, when I took on the pups I had absolutely no intention of keeping any (well maybe just a slight romantic rose coloured glasses thought of it anyway, which swiftly dispersed when faced with reality :hihi:).
I guess Ria sort of crept up on me and especially when Ruby went I realised how fond of her I had become, and as no one seemed to be interested in her she has just become part of the family, and I know it would break my heart to part with her because she is such a little sweetie and fits in so well.
But I have promised myself the couple of weeks while Ria has her vaccinations to think it through sensibly without trying to rehome her in that time.
Its not just the cost of another dog, but also the practicalities of taking care of 4 dogs by myself, so I have to be properly sure that I am making the right choice for all of us, so I'm sort of giving it a trial run and will decide once and for all after her next jab in 2 weeks, she will be 12 weeks then and still young enough to rehome and settle fine somewhere else.
Basically I just don't know what to do :hihi: I think she is most likely staying :rolleyes:

Aww to be honest I am very tempted hence the asking about her every 2 minutes :hihi: But I am like you trying to not let my heart rule my head so to say. I have Yoda, the cats and 2 guinea pigs already to look after. Oh why do animals have to be soooooooo cute.
SpeedDemon 10-05-2008, 15:56 ah moonbird, I've just gone through all the photos in this thread (had only previously seen the original ones) they are so adorable! And Ria looks so comfortable with your other pets :hihi:

:hihi: I wondered if it was something like that, well then you have 2 weeks to think as well Mrs! :D
Animals have this way of getting under your skin don't they?

Ria is very comfortable here and very much at home the little sneak :hihi: we all love her and Kira adores her, she is her baby and she would pine for her if she went I'm sure.... but then animals do adjust as well don't they? and I know that I'm silly for thinking that I am the only person in the world that can make Ria happy....oooh its all soooo hard! :rolleyes:

They sure do hun. I'm looking after hunnii's Lottie as the mo & don't want to give her back. She's lovely. Wish I could win the lottery, buy a big farmhouse & set up a sanctuary for animals.

Aww you're not silly. If it wasn't for you who knows what would have happened to the little sweeties.
Moonbird 10-05-2008, 17:33 Aww you're not silly. If it wasn't for you who knows what would have happened to the little sweeties.
