Dunboyne Stray - Jessie - Gorgeous Staffy Girl *gone to rescue*

jessie spent her first night here and shes definitely a lovely dog. she gave a few growls to my two dogs when she first met them but she gets on fine now with them! she also got on fine with the kids and almost ignored the bunnies (who were safely locked away from her!)
will take a couple pics of her later and put her up here.

We urgently need a foster home for Jessie! Unfortunately she has a bad cough and cannot travel as planned. Her current fosterer can hold onto her until Thrursday only.
Please can anyone help Jessie? she is on medication and really needs a home where she can get better until she can travel to Sweden.

Oh no, What happened, The kennel cough was cleared up by the time she left me, Is she ok? I'm heading on Holidays tomorrow and wont be back untill the 8th August and only for that i would take her back in a flash - Please please can someone take her, she is fully house trained, sleeps for ireland, not food agressive, in fact hasn't got an agressive bone in her body. I understand its the holiday season, but please surely there is a kind fosterer out there that can shower the lovely Jessie with Love and affection and look after her untill she's ready to go - If she is still here when i come back from hols, i will fosterer her, no questions asked!!

Jessie had a relapse from her kennel cough and the vet decided that she wasn't fit to travel - it is in the best interest of the dog that she is in perfect health when she travels as it could be very stressful and make any existing condition worse. She is on medications now and she is well looked after we just need a nice foster home to come forward and to take her until she can travel. We'll post here any update we have on Jessie so don't worry Maxy, enjoy your holiday and thanks a lot for all you did for Jessie - hopefully she'll be already in Sweden by the time you're back

jessie really is a lovely dog. heres a couple of pics of her with one of my dogs. she gets on well with him but argues a bit with my other!

I can't believe the difference in size between Jessie and your S. Bernard ...he must be huge
Jessie looks great, I hope her cough will clear soon. Thanks Lisa for looking after her

ah is big Jack looking after the lovely Jessie xxxx

Thanks for putting up the pic's lisa, she looks great xx

Has a foster been found for jessie yet? Sorry for hassling you, its just i cannot get Jessie out of my head.

Foster home for Jessie is sorted

Thank you, thank you, thank you, i can go on my holidays now with piece of mind Remember if she still needs a foster home when i come back, i will take her!!

i would keep her myself no probs but she doesnt really get on with one of my dogs. i had to stop a bit of a fight the other day between her and my bitch. jack is fine with her tho and she is great with the kids. very gentle and sweet natured. as for her cough it only seems worse when she is over-excited. otherwise it doesnt seem to bother her tho. think the medication is definetely taking effect.

As long as Jessie is fit to travel she'll be going on the next trip to Sweden on the 28th July. She's going into foster care with a woman called Ann, who fosters for Martina and she's going to hold her until she goes on holidays on the 24th, however Jessie will be looking for B&B again from the 24th until she can go to dogs aid on the 27th/28th so if anyone thinks they can hold onto her for a couple of days around then, that would be fantastic.

As for her not getting on with Lilyalogues other bitch - that's women for ya!!!!! Millie is the same - not a bother on her with male dogs and fine with other bitches as long as they realise that she's the boss :D:D

I just drove Jessie to Dogs Aid for her last night in Ireland and wow, what a gorgeous lovely girl
she's a stunner and I am sure she'll find a home very soon in Sweden! She's spending the night with Dogs Aid and will fly to Sweden early tomorrow.
Good luck Jessie and well done to everyone who helped this girl to start a new life

Any word on how jessie got on? would love to see some pics?

i,l try find out today and let you know xx

She is beautiful - Staffies are a law unto themselves!!! They demand EVERYONE love them (whether they want to or not is immaterial )

I dont think I could ever be without a staffie in my life now, they are just so full of fun and are such little characters!! I always say, Bliss is a HUGE dog in a little body (in her mind anyway!)

Good luck Jessie, please give her a big squeezy hug from us here
