new foster

Well with all the comotion last night with Tia my foster dog arrived.He is from meath pound and is such a sweet boy but is wanting to come in the house,poor fella but I have new shed set up for them so house is a no go area.He is a black male retriever and is lovely.His name is Marley because he had so much dread locks he looked like Bob Marley he got a lovely hair cut and was neautered and I shall de flea him today.Bruno is very inerested in meeting him but it wouldnt be wise as Bruno is very territorial especially with adult males.Ill try get a pic if I get a chance

Can't wait to see pics of marley!! Have a huge soft spot for black retrievers since I fostered Lady!!

oh pics please Elaine xx

How is Marley getting on. Has he meet Bruno yet?

He is grand but I havnt introduced him to Bruno as I just have a feeling it wouldnt go well.He is such a sweet boy but he wont leave his bits alone or lack of he has disolvible stitches in but it looks different to when Bruno got done,when he came to me he had just gotten out of vets so I checked him and there was like a tiny gap but not opened if ye know what I mean.He is sooooo sweet omg he would be a great pet.Tummy a bit ickey after the pound food but hopefully it will pass in a few days.Whats the best cheapest food ye can get if that makes sence.

Oh wow

so the shed is gettin good use then??
Well done on taking this fella in. Is there any plans made for him yet?

if you need any help just hollar

Thanks Denise he is actualy going over to the UK in about 2/3 weeks,ye shed is grand its not a home but its better than the pound.Its all insulated and dry so he seems content enough,so when ye movin in next door

I find either Red Mill pet or Bakers ok. Dont actually fed my own dogs on it they get RC but i feed the fosters here with either of them 2. There is a great shop in Portlaoise that does all sorts of food often have bags that are ripped or going out of date they sell for next to nothing. They have at the moment 15 kg of JWB fo 17e, Also they sell sachets of mixed dog and cat food 60 in a box for 9e finds it helps to spread out the nuts. Also if there not used to eating the nuts it flavours it for them.

actually they sell red mill for 20 euro in garden centre,has anyone used Madra??if so is it crap

Don't think we will be in for another 2 or 3 weeks, builder is hopefully looking at starting that wall knocking etc this week i think. Would love to have the kitchen sorted brfore we move in.

ye your dead right getting it done before ye move in,its a very very dusty job knocking that wall down.My house was covered in dust and the new leather sofa came the same day with no covering on it and of course OH never thought to cover it

I bought Madra for Hendrix a couple of times but won't do it again. He gets the smelliest no2 (to put it nicely :P ) and he shed more that usual..
Have him on Red Mills now and it seems good. Tried RC but the fussy fecker won't eat it!!

Thanks for that his tummy is a bit runny,im guessing from the pound food and what ever he ate while strayin along with alot of treats I give him oooops

I've got Millie on the Science Plan for sensitive stomachs now and the difference it has made to her is amazing. She's a lot less windy now:D

finally got pics of the lovely boy
