Brewtus Visits Shawna


Does anyone remember my handsome Frenchton foster boy Brewtus?! Well he's back for the week! Brewtus was adopted almost a year ago by the Kinder family and we have stayed in close contact. Since Brewtus is aggressive, I get to dog-sit him when they go out of town. And I LOVE it! I love getting to spend time with Brewtus and have his goofy self back into my home where he feels safe and very comfortable. Just look at his face!

Buster Has a Forever Home




The Little Guild Shelter in CT was pleased with Maya's Rescue from NEBTR two years ago. They reached out and asked Jerrilyn if we could help them with a boy almost 10yrs old that has some leash aggression, Lyme disease, parasites, just neutered and he needs housebreaking. Renata and I picked up Buster and learned in the final moments while pulling him he is also deaf. Being deaf explained some of his anxiety issues.

Separation anxiety is extreme. He has been misunderstood and had far too many homes. We decided this home would be his last and we asked NEBTR if we could adopt Buster. He is the newest member of the CT Pastuszak Family! We will continue his care and have his very weak back end assessed.

Thank you NEBTR it is an honor to be part of this amazing team!
Welcome home Buster, we love you!
Maria

Congratulations on your new family member!  Buster is one lucky Guy! - Cindy Kaiser

Spencer Goes to the Rainbow Bridge


To all that remember that funny little boy that 7 homes did not want because he grabbed bags and shook pillows is now doing his antics over rainbow bridge.  My little boy, age 13 was put down tonight due to oral cancer.  We kept him comfortable for 2 months after we found out and are so grateful we had our last Christmas with him. 

He fought hard and always kept his appetite up. I never saw a dog eat what he eat what he did.  He was the tough dog that had to be a only dog because he ruled this corner he lived on.  I always said he was working because when those kids went by on their bikes he would run along that fence.

He was the character from the time we brought him home barked at the ceiling fans and swam in our pool.  He even would attack the vacuum -- all vices he grew out of.  To conclude he was my love and my joy and this household will never be the same to a dog that brought us to much joy.

I say RIP Spencer over rainbow bridge and chase those bikes until the sun comes up.

RIP Spencer Mom and Dad miss you.........There will never be another Spencer....

Janet and PJ Erardi

Janet, I'm so sorry.  He was a very special boy, both inside and out, and he was so lucky to have found his way to your home.  RIP sweet Spencer. - Ginny

Janet,

I'm so sorry to hear about Spencer.  We're all so thankful that you took him in and gave him so much love.  I hope he's loving the chase up there. 

Thinking of you,
Liz

Hi friends! We're Leo and Petunia, and we are both being fostered by our awesome foster mom Kristen. Now that she has gotten to know us, she asked if maybe we might ask you for a few things we need to get by in our new home. If you could spare a few dollars, we would be so super grateful.

Here are our wishlists for anyone interested. If you can't give, that's okay - just send us some kisses and well wishes that we find our forever homes soon.

More on Brady and Juneau




 
Brady is a fantastic boy. He is so sweet and gentle. He loves everyone. He loves to be cuddled and petted. He eats like a champ. He doesn't need to be crated,  just let out frequently to potty. He is patiently waiting for his forever home.
 
Juneau, Mr June bug is also fabulous! He is such a good boy,  I love him dearly. He has been 100 % a good boy. But that is how he was before. He gets along fine with everyone. ( except Silas, but that's on Silas not Juneau) and the grumpy shih tzu Gizmo that is here from my local shelter.  Gizmo will chase Juneau, growling and barking. Juneau jumps on the couch away from him and looks at me like what is wrong w him,  jeeze. Lol. So all is well here. The boys are great.

New Foster Charlie

Hi all! Charlie received her foster package today! Wow that was FAST! She loves the chews! 

We also went to the Vet today to get all checked out. We went through her lengthy vet records and saw that she had been attacked by a dog years back, and also has survived Thyroid cancer, which she had removed last year and has been clear since then, thankfully! 

She is 14, going on 15, and has the usual signs of her age,  her hearing and vision are not great, she has muscle loss in her hind quarters, cataracts, and some gum disease and tartar. Other than that, she looks great! And she is very very sweet and easy to handle :) 

Mostly she enjoys napping and snacking. She doesn't mind my cats laying on her, and seems fine with the dogs, barely notices Ellie yapping at her! 

I love her little gray face. She fits in perfectly here lol. More to come I am sure!

Happy Anniversary, Muno!

We just got our Happy Anniversary eCard today..  I can't believe February 19th will be three years since we adopted Muno from foster mom Megan Sanchez.  We also met NEBTR foster momma Chris Schezzini that weekend and have remained close with both Megan and Chris.
 
We are happy to report that Muno is loving life as a tropical dog living out here at Bucholz Army Airbase in Kwajalein Atoll, Republic of the Marshall Islands.  He spends his days lounging on the couch, visiting the dog park, checking out the surf and greeting all of the island kids that come through our revolving front door.  Our two boys keep both he and his fur brother Walter pretty busy chasing toys and balls.  Here's to many more years with our little one eyed Muna Buna!

More on Scamp



I've had Scamp for 10 days now and he's really trying his best to become a part of our family.
He is completely housebroken and is able to tell me when he has to go out.
He loves playing fetch and can even catch a tennis ball that I throw off the wall on the rebound!

He is able to be around all of my dogs with no problem, however he doesn't know how to interact with them. He is very shy and walks away when any of them initiate play. He still sleeps in his own room and goes in there when he wants peace and quiet. When I close the door on him, he may cry and howl until I let him out.

We just went on a snowy walk, and Scamp did very well. I have been trying to make sure he gets a solid half hour per day of exercise to help him get back into shape.

Scamp has met several people while he has been with me, and he has been a gentleman around each and every one of them. He is such a sweet, loving dog who has made his way into so many hearts in the short time he's been with me.  He's an incredibly good dog who just wants someone to love him and relishes attention.

Alyssa and Scamp

 That is so wonderful, Alyssa. You have such a big heart for taking him into your care and it's awesome to hear he's doing so well! He sounds so sweet, and is a handsome little guy too!

Warm wishes, Deb


His level of cuteness is intolerable to me!  Sounds like such a great boy!

Waffles Update



The results from the biopsy came back and Waffles was diagnosed with Grade 2 Mast Cell tumor but with a low mitotic index, which is a good thing for Grade 2.  The next step is a visit to Pittsburgh's specialty hospital's oncology department and we are also going to visit a holistic doctor and see what's best for Waffles.  Today she got her stitches out from the incision on her side where the one tumor was removed.

Waffles is full of life!  She is very active but also snuggly!!   She seems to be a very loyal dog wanting to be with you and please. This young girl deserves a chance!!!!
