Weekend Wrapup

For the past 2 weeks momma has been coordinating a transport for a beagle named Jumps. She was adopted in Boston, MA and need the help of some volunteers to get her there. Friday momma got the last leg filled and headed to the shelter to spring!

She was happy to be getting out!
When momma got her home we gave her the good ol' two country poodle sniff.

She checked out the yard from the screened in back porch of Doggy Nanny's house.

Then she came to our house and fell in love with the soft beds we have and took some toys to play with. She was scared of the flash that the camera made in the house so momma didn't take any more pictures.

Saturday Jumps headed out on her 2 day and 18 leg journey to meet her family. Her family reports that she is the perfect addition to their family and a joy to have.
-----------------------
Saturday night we headed to lowes to pick up some screws. Momma had to fix up a porta crib momma got from craigslist.
As we were heading inside we saw a dark figure scurry across the parking lot. Momma ran to the car and got a leash so she could catch the little creature. She finally lassoed her and got her into the light. She is a black poodle mix (possibly cocker) dog with no collar or tags. Momma went inside and asked everyone she saw if they knew who this dog belonged to...The manager said that she had been there all day. So we took her home with us. She is a sweet girl and has won grandma's heart!

We named her Penny Puppy!

Yesterday momma called all of the shelters and vet clinics in the area but no one has reported any small black dogs as lost. So momma is going to keep looking for her owners but if no one comes for her she will be put up for adoption.
She has a lot of fear issues to work out such as riding in the car...brooms...and new people. She will be going to the vet Saturday to get her blue badge of health (rabies vacc tag).
--------------------------------

Last night momma also made a ton of cookies. Some to keep and some to for grandma to take to work and share. We got to test taste the peanut butter ones and boy were they good. We just have to take moms word for it that the chocolate oatmeal ones were to die for!!!


-----------------------
Momma has decided to make official the rescue work she does by putting her rescue on Petfinder. It is called Mollie's Foundation cause after she got me she learned about dog rescue and how to help dogs that come from abusive situations. Now she has a place to list the dogs she has that are looking for a new home. (such as Charlie and Jack)


-----------------
Also we heard that Moo and Baa arrived in PA. Head over to Chloe's blog to read of their adventures.


Wags and Licks,

  2. I hope Penny Puppy's owners come forth ... !

    That's so nice of you to get her a rabies shot - what if she already had one?

    Congratulations on Mollie's foundation. And the cookies look so yummy!

    It's raining hard here, so no historical sites. : (
    We'll figure out something else for Moo Moo and Ba Ba to do today.

  11. Pawsome post! Penny puppy is sooooo cute. She looks right at home with you. Your MOM is SUPER and Mollie's Foundation will be good. We are borth rescues & our Mom spends a lot of time on Petfinder. We heard her talking the other day about fostering. We think Mom needs more money and space. If she had that it might get crowded around here.
    Great Job you Mom does!!!

    PS: We like the fancy costumes and the Halloween theme of your blog!

  12. There's a special place in heaven for you. I do fostering and rescue too, but I've never taken it to the level that you have.

    You are really terrific!

  15. It's great that your mom was able to help Jumps get to her new home. We hope Penny finds a good home too.

    Mom says those chocolate oatmeal cookies look like the No-Bakes she used to make as a little girl. She thinks they call them Preacher Cookies in the south.

  17. Your Mom does great work - give her lots of kisses! And Penny? Oooh. She's a cutie; Mom says if we hadn't already found me a little sister, she'd be VERY interested in Penny. But she's so cute that I'm sure she'll find a fur-ever home Very Soon! Good job in supporting your Mom in all her hard work!

  18. Penny was so lucky to find a home with you for a while. I hope Jumps gets to here home soon also. Your Mom is so great for doing that and how cool that she will be on Petfinder. That is where Mommy and Big Sis found me. Petfinder has contests to vote for the best shelter and the shelter gets money, if we can vote for your Mommy we will. Love you both.

    licks and sniffs, Sasha

  20. Your Mom is just great to do all the rescue work she does - kudos to her. We wish Jumps a very happy furever home and we sure hope Penny's owners come forward - she looks like a very well-cared for pup - someone must be missing her.

  21. I love your mom for how much she helps these doggies out - she is such a good person. Jumps was a total cutie and Penny is too! I hope her owners come forward (well, kind of - the no tags thing bugs me a bit but I know dogs can get out of their collars so I am giving them the benefit of the doubt for now). Did she check to see if she is chipped - I know we found a dog one time and we went to the police station and they were able to check (I am sure she knows that). She is so good to help out all these doggies and making it official is extra cool!
