Roxie has arrived.
Sweet face
This little one has been through alot I guess. Ended up in a shelter after losing her home and the love of her owner as they recently died. She has a great personality and zeros right into the softest dog bed so was cared for at one time. Maybe her care went downhill as her person could no longer keep up with her because of their failing health? Grooming needs not kept up with and well,overfed some crummy food.
Sad eyes, wonder what she is thinking?
 Ears a mess. She is what we are lovingly referring to as a 'pudgesickle' currently. Cannot even walk or run as she should. One step is too much to hop up. 
She will soon enough though as we went through this with an earlier foster Alberta. She is now our own dog and we call her Birdie. 
My husband and Roxie hit it off right away. Our three dogs also each gave their tail wagging seal of approval. I know how to pick the sweetest ones.
And Brian said no more foster dogs for awhile, ha she wormed her way into his heart in two seconds.

Fiona, also known as Munch or just Fi. I guess I have not been keeping up on this blog. It wasn't getting many hits so I was not super motivated. That and I am more than happy to keep Fiona as long as I can.  She is just a fun little dog to have around. She is silly, playful, and just a great companion. If I am home she is nearby.  We kenneled her along with our 2 dogs for four days and they all did well I hear. I wasn't sure how she would take to people she did not know. I got a text within hours that she was getting belly rubs and the owner thought she was a hoot. When our dog sitter comes by they are best buddies also. Her potty training took a set back while my husband was home for weeks healing from surgery and missed her I need to get outside cues. If she messes inside it always is the same area so a potty pad may solve that. We have been on a good almost 2 wk no mess stretch again so crossing my fingers It is a rainy, lazy day so I figured some pictures of our li...

FIONA, or  MUNCH as my husband calls her. A little downtime, sleepy moment. She is more settled than when we first got her here a few months ago. Then we called her CRAZY! Fiona hanging out with her buddy Suzie, Suzie was also from Fluffy Dog Rescue. Fiona is watching out our front window. The bird feeders are out there and she can see all the bird and squirrel action.

Fiona Well, we are starting to get out for a few more walks as it is warming up. We got her a harness because she wants to pull so much I worried about her neck. Our dog walker used the word-crazy- to describe her enthusiasm.   Today she got all barky and growly at a snowman and oversized Easter rabbit lawn decorations she saw. Just has a lot to learn about this big world yet.  She did ignore kids out playing basketball, in the past they were scary monsters to her too. I seem to be having picture uploading issues. Sorry. Just know she is getting cuter each day.
