They have joined the rest of my foster cats - Kirby, Bandit, Belle, Thomas, and Pogo. Mercury, Kona and Kimba have all been adopted!
September 28th - Went back to the shelter and picked up Thumper, a Bearded Collie mix. She's eight years old and very sweet.

September 29th - Helped set up the All Paws garage sale fundraiser. Got to do some pre-sale shopping. Spent more money than I had planned.
September 30th - Got up at 4:30 a.m. for the garage sale. Spent most of the day trying to stay awake. Bought more items and spent even more money. Realized I ran out of checks and had no cash. Blamed it on lack of sleep and wrote an IOU.
October 1st - Went to the Purina Pet Project Event. Ziggy got to join the Purina Dog Show and pray for all the animals to find homes. I didn't actually see anyone get adopted at the event, so I'm hoping that's not Ziggy's fault. We had a great time and I met some wonderful people.
October 2nd - Held a small adoption event at PetSmart. No one was adopted, and I came home completely exhausted. Brought home Audrey, a temporary foster dog who is already scheduled to be adopted as soon as she is vetted.
October 3rd - Got up early and dropped off Audrey and Carlos, another All Paws dog, at the vet. Went back home and worked for several hours. Went back to the vet with Elton and Thumper for their exams, and then took all four dogs with me to the shelter to pick up Roo, another foster dog. Came home and got Roo introduced to everyone else. Left and took Ziggy to Agility class. Came home and collapsed. Got a good night's sleep surrounded by Miley, Molly, Elton, Thumper, Roo, Audrey, Pogo and Charley.

Woah, that is busy! I'm tired after reading it. Ha ha. Thumper sure is beautiful.
Say, I read a while back about how many different food allergies Ziggy has. Did you ever find a good food solution for him? Was the cost prohibitive? Another Ziggy fan here!
You have been busy! I admire your tireless work on behalf of all the dogs and kitties who are looking for forever homes.
Whew, Dog Foster Mom! I am 'zausted reading abouts your week. And here all I did was chase squirrels and eat bunny poop. I think maybe you should take a breakie and do the same!

Hannah - Lucky for Ziggy, we found a food that he does great with, so he no longer has to worry about me just giving him raw potatoes for his dinner. He eats Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Potato and Duck food. Sadly, he now feels the need to chase any ducks he sees. I blame his food for this.
Oh my gosh! Go take a nap! But when you wake up, find Ziggy's best costume and head over to our blog on Thursday. It's Skye's 4th birthday and we're playing dress up!
Sounds like you need a nice long nap
