This turtle was hit by a car and was waiting for a shell repair. She has a mustache!

Foster Friday: Jadetto

Jadetto was in a very loving home for over 10 years! His owner had some health issues and had to find a new place for him. The Blind Dog Rescue Alliance stepped in and this little guy is just about perfect! Gets along with everyone. Ready to find that second forever home for him!

Sunshine’s Questions
Favorite treat? Seems to be anything
Favorite pup food? Halo or Wellness
Favorite human food? Beef or Chicken
Do you like to chew? Not really
Favorite chewy? Eh, nothing really
Do you like pedicures? Yeah, they are ok.
How do you feel about the couch? I love the couch. I can jump right up and then I curl up. I don't like to lay on the couch that the other dogs lay on, I'd rather lay on the couch that I'm not supposed to be on.
Do you prefer snuggling or your own giant bed? Snuggling
Favorite naughty thing to do? I'm relearning housebreaking so I sometimes forget to let my foster mom know I need to go outside. But I'm getting better at it.

Jadetto by the fire
How fast do you zoomie? I don't know what that is.
What’s your opinion on squirrels? I can't see them, so they don't bother me.
Opinion on birds? Do they really taste like chicken? I can't see them either.
Are you a guard dog at the front door? Or a sleeping laid back pup? I'm a sleeping laid back pup, I let the other dogs do the guard duty. They're younger than me!
Do you like long walks? What's a long walk? I like walks.
How important is your sleep? I love to sleep, but I really like exploring. My previous mom kept me in a crate for a very long time cause she was very sick. That's where I forgot how to go to the bathroom outside. Now that I'm at my new foster mom's house, I don't get crated and I explore every chance I get!!

Jadetto following Bear
Who is your favorite puppy friend? Bear wants to play with me and I hear my mom say he's doing the play bow in front of me, but I can't see him.
Do you like to travel? I like car rides.
Where did you travel from? I came from Louisanna and I live in TN now.
Any interesting travel stories? I walked away from my driver on my way to TN. She lost me for a little bit, but then found me. I don't really run too much, so I'm not sure how that happened.
What do you think of strangers? Everyone is my friend.
Favorite toys? I like stuffed kongs.

Jadetto and Carlee
What’s your favorite game to play? I've only been with my foster mom for a short time, so I don't have any favorite games yet.
Opinion on belly rubs? I love belly rubs!
Do you marinate your brains to make them smarter? (sleeping upside down with head off bed or furniture). Not too much.

Acupuncture for Sunshine

20130717_185506

Mom wants to see if acupuncture can help my belly issues and my fear issues

20130717_185516(0)

She made me go to the Dr all my MYSELF! I was scared in the waiting room.

20130717_185516

Don't look at the scary stuffs

20130717_185822

They didn't take us to a regular room

20130717_185823

This room had a  bed already on the floor for me!

20130717_185852

And a couch!

Mom said the couch was not for me. I think she's lying.

20130717_190350

I finally laid down and waited for the Dr

20130717_193013

The Dr was scary! I was brave as she stuck me with needles. I didn't like getting my front legs done, but the Dr was gentle. It wasn't even our regular Dr. This is a new stranger...

20130717_193016

Look at this relaxed face. This isn't too bad.

20130717_193025

The needles stayed in for 20 minutes.

There's even one in my head! We go back next week. Mom bought 5 apps to see if it helps me.
