While Bella Boo Wants Out
Bella Boo is obsessed with going for a walk, no matter how cold it is outside. She makes me feel guilty when she does this! How cold is too cold to take her for a quick walk around the block?? She enjoys it so much.

Fosters Say Thank You for Amazon Gifts
Thanks so much to everyone who sent gifts to our fosters from the NEBTR Amazon Wish List. Since the gifts don’t say who bought them, the fosters want to say “Thank You” to their wonderful benefactors here. If you were one of the people who sent the gift, feel free to send a message to your foster on our Facebook page. They would love to hear from you! Or you can all enjoy the photos of our beautiful fosters with their gifts.
If you would still like to make the day of a foster, you can see their wishes at this link:

This is Molly going to town on one of the bully sticks someone generously purchased for her from her Amazon wish list. This girl literally has no teeth but it doesn't stop her from gumming her favorite treat Thank you to whomever have her this gift, Molly LOVES it!!! -- Jodi Groff
Here are pictures of Fena on her new bed from some NEBTR angel! (I put a cover on it for protection!) She loves the bed and she and Ori take turns sleeping in it even though there are 2 couches and 2 chairs in the living room. THANK YOU whoever bought this for her! She knew right away it was hers. Brought big smiles to both my husband and me.

Hi, George here! I would like to thank the kind people who sent me the two toys that I received today. I love them both SO MUCH!!! First I ran through my foster home with each of them and then...
... I brought them to my crate so my foster brother and sisters can't get to them. YAY! What a nice gift and a fun way to celebrate that I am now up for adoption. Check me out on petfinder.com. My foster Mommy says that I am finished with all my vet trips now and ready for my forever home. My toys will come with me too :) And all my other things to help me adjust. Thanks again for my gifts, kind friends!!!
Love, George
-- Cynthia Kaiser

Her foster mom Sharon Sweeney writes,
"Just received my first puppy mill foster who i adore. She has made such progress in three days. Does anyone have any ideas about what toys to try at first? She may be a few weeks away from this but I am very proactive. Thanks so much."

New Foster Bella Boo
Hi everyone!!! I'm fostering a puppy mill girl from Indiana. I named her Bella Boo!!!
She came from a puppy mill in Indiana with foster Penny Lane. She is around 6 to 7 years young and in got a clean bill of health from my vet.
She is a love bug and a beautiful soul. She gets along well with my two dogs and met my rabbit today and is very good with her as well.She has the most soulful eyes!!! She is the sweetest being and is such a good girl. She doesn't mess up her crate, she's a cuddle bunny, she's very respectful, and goes potty outside with my other two dogs!!!
She was terrified on day 1 and was in bad shape. Day 3, she is more relaxed. She is a total love bug!!!
She is well mannered, goes potty outside with my other two dogs, and crate trained. She keeps her crate spotless. No anxiety or separation issues. She's good on a leash on our walks. Ignores other dogs and people if they walk by her. She met two preschoolers on our walk and she was very gentle with them and gave them little kisses. The kids loved her!!
As with all puppy mill dogs, she doesn't know how to play yet, what a toy is, etc.... I've only had her for a week and a half and she is slowly venturing out of her crate when I call her...yes, she knows her name. Miss Bella Boo is a smart cookie.
The only thing I see that she needs work on is getting her comfortable with the rest of my home. I'm using a leash so she can be with me when I move around the house and provolone cheese as a reward. I'm giving myself another three weeks and hopefully she will be ready by then.
She will make someone very happy...
Thanks,
Patti
Just look at the difference after three days in Patti's care! Thank you so much for opening your heart and home to her!
UPDATE:
We went on our first walk on Sunday along with my Boxer, Jess. She did very well on the walk. This morning we went for another walk and she was a natural...like she's been doing it for all her life. We met up with two preschoolers with their mom and she was very gentle with them. Gave them little kisses and they loved Bella Boo.
She is potty trained to go outside with my other two dogs and I can see that she is much more relaxed with going out in the yard with them. So far the only thing that is going slow, is that she still views her crate as the "safe zone". Each day I am taking her on the leash to explore another part of my home, but she's not thrilled with doing that....so I'm not forcing her.
She will make someone a great family member!!!
:)
