Pugs and Doodles Update #4 and HELP



Doodles



Pugs

Hi Pals,

A quick update on Doodles and Pugs - their mom and 9-year-old daughter left for a shelter Tuesday night after dropping the doggies off at another daugher's house for over-night housing.    Because that daughter lives in a small 3rd floor, walk-up flat where no pets are allowed, obviously she can't keep them.  They have been boarded for a few days in the city where TheNascarKitty lives until we can get their flight arrangements made, get their necessary shots, etc and get them on the airplane to their new home.

A very generous person as loaned the money to cover the cost of the flight for flying both dogs to California.   But we need to raise a large sum of money now to cover @TheNascarKitty's boarding expenses for the dogs, vet bill, and also to reimburse the very kind person that paid for the flight.

Tonight at the #nipclub we will be holding a massive Fund Raiser to raise the money to reimburse that very kind person who paid for the flight, and reimburse @TheNascarKitty for the boarding bill and vet bill.  

The #Nipclub opens at 4:00 p.m. and runs to 12:00 p.m. EST.  Great music,  Fantastic food and drinks, and great PALS to hand out with.     We just simply have a great time.

We NEED TO RAISE THIS MONEY.   Please come to the pawty at the #nipclub tonight and donate whatever amount you can.   No amount is too small.

If you are a blogger pal and don't have a Twitter account a chip-in widget has been added to the right side of my bloggy.   Even if you can only contribute a dollar, it all adds up.
 
Thanks

Doodles Dancing For Joy but..........

Doodles Dancing for Joy at thought of moving to CA.  But......



Doodles 

Hi Pals,

That Doodles is dancing for joy because he gets to go to California.   But...

Pugs



A very nice family in California wants to give Pugs and Doodles a loving, forever home.   But it's going to take time to arrange for transport.  

Doodles

We put in a request for assistance of transport from a great organization called "Pilots For Paws."  It is a volunteer group of airplane pilots willing to transport rescued animals cross country.   But you have to wait for someone willing to go in the direction you want to go.   Now it's just a matter of waiting for the right pilot to volunteer.   This organization came highly recommended to us by @MattieDog, who has had lots of experience with using this group,  so we are confident they will help us.    



Mom and daughter are starting to make concrete plans now for moving and are making appropriate contacts for help in doing so.  

But....this also means we has to get these two doggies out of the home ASAP - like IMMEDIATELY.   We're trying to find someone to FOSTER them for 2 - 4 weeks until we can get the transportation organized.   I has been tweeting with pals retweeting for me  for 2 days trying to find a foster home for them.  So far - no luck.

Now I'm hoping one of you, dear readers, can help.   The main problem is we need a foster home within about a 100 miles radius of Green Bay as we requesteed a volunteer pilot willing to go from the Green Bay Airport to California, so we need to keep them close so we can get them to the airport when the pilot says he/she will be here.  

Can you, dear readers, help spread the word.   If no one is found soon, we'll have to consider boarding, which isn't going to make the mom very happy.   She really wants to see them in a loving home.  

M has contacted everyone via email that she knows in our state and asked them to spread the word.  She's also made several phone calls  and had her friends that are working post bulletins on bulletin boards.      

Anything you can do to help will be so appreciated.   If you know of anyone living in our state please contact them and ask them to pass the word to their friends.  

Thanks pals.

Adoption Agency

Hi Pals,

I was thinking today dat maybe I should open up an adoption agency for kitties. M and D told me when I had my toothies pulled dat I might has to go to work to help support dem. Well, it seems I has been trying to find homes for so many anipals lately - maybe I need to hang out a shingle for Anipal Adoption agency on our front door.

Well, now I has another kitty to tell you about.

Word must be out in South Carolina that Marges Pets serves the best meals around the area, because kitties keep popping in for dinner and never leaving.  Marge is very kind hearted and does what she can for kitties that just drop and all of the other animals in her care, but she says she's filled up.  She loves helping the kitties and some over the years have even become house kitties. But she knows when she can't handle anymore and provide for them. So, she's hoping to find a nice, loving, forever home for Little Miss BG, who really isn't even a feral.  Maybe you know of someone who would like a nice kitty and or could help spread the word. 

To quote Marge:

"Little Miss BG just showed up at my house and just moved in eating everyone's food and making herself right at home on the porch! "

"She really is a nice kitty. She is very tame and is not afraid of the dogs, just respectful of them. She gets along with other cats in that she doesn't start any fights"

Marge doesn't know how old Little Miss BG is, but "she appears young."

Please go over and take a look at Marges Animals  so you can see what animals she has to take care of.   She really needs to find a good home for Little Miss BG.

If you would help spread the word, or know of someone who might like this cute Little Miss BG, just let Marge know by leaving a comment on her bloggy. Little Miss BG will make someone a nice pet.

Now for just a quick update on Doodles and Pugs, the two doggies in central Wisconsin dat need a new home. (Scroll down and see my last post) A California couple has offered to take them. But, I'm not sure what the mom's answer will be. I've turned it over to @TheNascarKitty and @SaraBeth3394 to handle as they have contact with mom. We know they would have a good home in CA because this family is related to one of our Tweeting pals. As soon as I have any information, I will share it with you.  Transport could be a problem, but a couple of leeds have been given to @TheNascarKitty to look into if mom is in agreement.  When I get an update, I'll post it.

Now M says dat if I want to open an Adoption Agency I has to get an MSN in Social Work (MSN) , which means going to school for a long time. I'd better think about this a little bit more. I don't think I'd like school.

Desperate Duo - URGENT



H Pals,

Have some URGENT business to tell you about today.



Doodles, 1yr 4 mos

Pugs 1 yr 4 mos



There are two doggies (Pugs and Doodles)  in DESPERATE need of a new home IMMEDIATELY.  (Photos added 4-7-11)



Pugs and Doodles are 1year, 4-month-old brother dogs. They are house dogs, used to a lot of people and small children. Their human Mom has to leave quick...she is in an abusive marriage and is getting out of the house with her elementary school-aged child. She cant take her beloved dogs, but can't bear to see them split up.    If they can't be adopted, they will have to go to a shelter because she has no other choice.

They are littermates, but are very different.

Pugs is tall - perhaps the size of a smaller doberman.   He appears to be a mix of Golden Lab and maybe German Shepherd. He's pretty active, would love to run, play and take walks, but also to snuggle on the couch.



Pugs

 Doodles is short with short legs.   He is a little smaller than a Cocker Spaniel, but very solidly built. He's got some Basset Hound, Golden Lab, and it looks like a little Shar-Pei in him.

Doodles

Neither is fixed, and they probably need updated shots, but the abusive spouse in this situation didn't leave much for the humans to live on much less their pets.   In spite of this Mom managed to keep them well fed, and I'm sure they were a security blanket for her.

They live in a small town in Central Wisconsin in Green Lake County.



Pugs

Please help spread the word.  M is sending email messages to everyone she knows in the state of WI and beyond in the event that they know of someone who can help, or at least spread the word themselves.  M will send a message to be posted at Sisfur's office and a message at her husband's office.

If you can help and are on Twitter, please contact @TheNascarKitty or @sarabeth3394 . or me (Mariodacat).  If you are a blogger pal and know of someone, please leave a message on this blog and I'll get in contact with you and give you the emial address of  TheNascarKitty.

Thanks everyone for helping.  You know the power of Twitter and the Blog world pals. We CAN and WILL do this, but it has to be done SOON. Mom and child have to get out of that situation.

Animal Photo Hunt - Grazin

Hi Pals,

Our pal CokieTheCat posted another Photo Hunt Blog.  Subject is "Grazin."

Last summer M bought me a new leash and harness, so I gets to go outside, as long as M or D are along to supervise me.   My favorite place to go is to the Cat Mint plant in the back yard. I love to graze on the leaves.   Sigh, but since I dont has toothies, I really don't get to eat much - just a tiny piece now and then, but I keeps trying.  

M says we will move into an apartment this summer and can't take dat plant with us.   Sigh!   I sure am going to miss dat plant.

SAVE Lennox

Hi Pals,

Mario here -  My fur is all rankled today cuz  a poor doggie in Ireland is going to be put to sleep because he happens to look like a “mean” breed (according to some government men in Ireland.  They have nothing else better to do so have made up a list of what they call "mean" doggies and they don't allow dem to live.)  Dis makes me mad because what if they decided to ban “moggie” tuxedo cats in the US just cuz we look like we are feral!  GASP!  Dat means I’d be put to sleep forever.


I first saw this post in my pal @Frugaldougal’s blog. Please go over there and read it because he has stated it much better den I ever could.

Den go over and read the Official Blog of Save Lennox.   In this bloggy look under the Heading of How You Can Help. There are several email accounts listed dat you can write to. There is a petition going and you can sign it here.  I had both my peeps sign the petition, and M wrote some email letters to the various suggested places.

Den a lady by the name of Victoria Stillwell, who is a famous animal trainer and who has a show on Animal Planet, also wrote an extensive article on Lennox.  You can read her interesting article here. 

Now do you understand why my fur is rankled?   This kind of thing should not be allowed to happen. I’d like to BAN those government oomans from the ooman race (which means since dey don’t meet my criteria for oomans, they should be put to sleep too).

Please help pals.  You know the power we anipals has in bloggies and on Twitter, if we ban together we can save this nice doggie.

Thanks

Mario
