The Foster Dogs!

I thought I'd blog about the foster hounds today cause they've had lots going on!

First off Kayah

Kayah's heartworm treatment is going super well! She'll go back to the V-E-T and get rechecked for heartworms in a few weeks and hopefully she'll be cleared and then we can help find her a home!

Plus Momma's been working on some training with Kayah. Kayah was abandoned in a garage for a while so she forgot that doggies go potty in the grass. The training is going well and Kayah is learning to love the feel of grass under her feet again!



Mickey got neutered on Monday! He wasn't too happy about it but it had to happen. He hasn't licked his incision once, probably cause Momma continues to threaten him with the Cone of Shame!

Mickey has also been working on training with Momma. He knows Stay, Come, Look, and No and he's making progress with Sit and Off. He loves training! Momma thinks Mickey could make an awesome agility or therapy doggie since he's so sweet and works so hard.


And then there's Roy!

I've haven't mentioned Roy before cause he's a foster dog at Momma's work. Roy is with the Looziana Basset Rescue, which is our local basset rescue. Momma is, of course, in love with Roy. He's 7 years old but doesn't act like it. He also has dry eyes like I do but he's really good about his eye drops.

Momma wanted me to pass on that Looziana Basset Rescue is having a fund raiser right now. If you donate 40 kibble dollars to the Looziana Basset Rescue during the month of March, you can get a really cool basset-y themed picture!

This is the link for the pictures: http://www.gallery504.biz/ Once you donate your kibble monies at this website www.firstgiving.com/bayoubassets then you just e-mail bayoubassets@bellsouth.net and tell them which picture you want, where to send the picture and how you donated your kibble monies.

We already own a basset-y print that was made a few years back. It's one of our favorite pictures!

That's it for now.

Kayah's Heartworms Round 2

Hey everydoggie


Well Ms. Kayah is going for her second (and hopefully last) round of heartworm treatment today!


So please say some puppy prayers that everything goes ok!

I know we've been asking for lots of puppy prayer and crossed paws but it seems to go with being a foster home for these homeless pups!

I can add on a happy note, Mickey funny neck bump got figured out and he didn't need splurgery! Although there is talk of him going and getting tutored soon.

Hopefully our next post will be Smiley and I in our Barkus costumes!

This and that

Hey Everybody

Droopy here! We hope everybody had a wonderful valentine's day!



So you might be wondering why I have a black blanket. Well it's not a blanket it's part of my costume for my favorite event of the year!

Barkus is approaching!!!!!!!!!!

For our friends who don't know Barkus is a dog-only parade! And it is the bestest doggie event in New Orleans! Hurray!!!!!! Plus the theme this year is Broadway!

On to more normal everyday doggy stuff. Here are some pictures from our post ear-cleanin' freak-out!


Can you believe that Kayah has the dirtiest ear in the house?!?!??! We blame in on the labra-dork in her!


And just so you don't miss him, Professor Mickey says "Clean ears are important!"


Mickey is currently spending time at the V-E-T cause his weird bump came back! Even though he's a CheeseHound FosterDude we still love him lots! Please keep your paws crossed for him.

Droopy, Smiley, Kayah, and Mickey

P.S. If anybody can guess Smiley and Droopy's costume we might have to send them something extra special in the mail!

Still here


Hey everybody! We are still here!! Momma's been sick then the computer got sick too!
Kayah's heartworm treatment is going super duper well and Smiley's ears are all healed!

Plus this cute man has been staying with us.
His name is Mickey. Can you guess why?
Then Mickey had an emergency bump and had to have splurgery!
He is super sweet but very tall!

We hope all our doggie bloggie friends are well and staying warm!

Slobbers,
Droopy, Smiley, and Kayah (and Mickey)

Kayah starts heartworm treatment!

Hey everybody! Droopy here

We need lots of good doggie vibes for Kayah. She started heartworm treatment today.



Heartworm treatment is a very scary thing for a pup to go through. The v-e-t takes a big needle and injects medicine into your back and it starts killing all these scary worms that are stuck to the doggie's heart. The doggie has to stay very calm and there can be no walkies or running around or any fun for weeks and weeks!!!!

While Kayah is at heartworm treatment Smiley and I hung out with Momma and napped alot. But then Momma said it was time for BATHS!!!!





But then we got tasty treats for being such good girls!!! Hurray!!!

Droopy, Smiley and Kayah
