OMG I L-O-V-E her!!!

:

My newest foster dog.

Hobbling along

"Whatchya doin?"

Still hobbling


She suffered a broken leg somehow. I dunno, she came from another facility. She is a TOTAL doll. Kissy. And sweet. And great with kids/cats/dogs.....

She looks very sweet - what breed/mix do you think she is?

I dunno. I was told Coonhound, totally not what I expected to find waiting for me!

I see her nipples are very noticeable(not preggo noticeable), definately had puppies before.

Awww!! What a sweetheart!

Awww, she's a cutie. What a sweet face!

I am leaning towards Redbone Coonhound/Boxer X on her....she slept all night on my bed, "woo woo"ed at my girls upstairs a couple of times....cried when she needed out. Did I mention I this girl?

Awwww Nat what an absolute precious girl she is. Look at that sweet face.

she is adorable!!!! lots of vibes for her to find a great home

Things got complicated, we might have to do surgery/rebreak & cast the leg. It is a horrible job....the bone is very crooked & the two broken ends do not even match. As I am 30 mins from the vet, I left her with another family right near the vets. That broke my heart.

As there is no room at the shelter because of irresponsible owners, I had to bring home a foster dog. He came for a breeder, never had a name. He's terrified, living in an outdoor kennel all his life. A wirehaired JRT. Just look at him!

She is gorgeous! The jack russel is pretty cute, too!

She is sooo adorable!! That jack russell is sweet too!

Do you think she could be part Rhodesian Ridgeback? A guy that John buys cars from has a family member with a Ridgeback. He looks a lot like your foster girl.

Are redbones the one from where the red fern grows? I know several dog breeds, mostly working or herding group not so much the hounds or the toy breeds.
I definately thought boxer when I saw her. and mabey plott hound or rodesian ridgeback. But I was leaning towards the dog from red fern grows more then the plott (which is the redbone, right?)

Yes, I do think the Redbone was in Where the Red Fern Grows. Our 5th grade teacher read it to us, and even the boys were crying.

Just a bit of an update on Mandy, the coonhound. Her leg was a compound fracture. There was no padding between the cast & the bone....so, long story short. We have to amputate the leg. She's a tough girl & will get around fine....but man, she sure drew the short stick!

I am soo sorry she will need to have her leg amputated Please do not be discouraged though hon- many dogs really do just fine after amputations and bounce back! My former foster dog,Norris did and he went on to find a wonderful home!!!
