I think we might just be the luckiest idiots in the world. She's met our whole pack. We have a hound/terrier mix who's about 4 months younger than her, they've been outside running forever. We had to force a time out. She came back in, everyone seems to get along really well and now she's back outside running with Odie. Max, our labaweiner, also joined them. It sounds like cattle running. I think it's safe to say we now have 8 dogs. WTF. From now on please hide all free dogs somewhere on here I will never look.

I have meds for ear infections and flushing stuff here, but before I do anything I want a vet's opinion first.

She is still working on relaxing but she'll get there. She is an amazing girl. She just needs time, love and patience.

1. Stop buying so much dang bourbon.   2. Stop saying I am going to foster a dog and then keeping it.  :rofl:

HRH Daisy Mae Bluebelle Bonnet has landed in the fair woods of Jackson County. We got to meet up with R.M. and his family today to get her. I felt like a huge jerk taking a dog from the cutest little girl, but the dog was really cute too and I knew it was the right thing. Had she started to cry, they would've been stuck with her. LOL So here is HRH Daisy Mae Bluebelle Bonnet when we first got home. I opened the back of the truck to let her sniff a bit. [url=http://s166.photobucket.com/user/predsgirl33/media/Daisy/195_zpsaqzsuevx.jpg.html][/URL] She rode really well in the truck. She whimpered when we left RM and family and she bayed while I pumped gas down the road but once we got on 40 she was quiet as a church mouse and that's pretty awesome. So this next picture is HRH Daisy Mae Bluebelle Bonnet scoping out her goods from TSC. Knowing she wasn't an "indoors dog" I got her a cheap bed. If she pees on it or tears it up oh well. We also have her crate with pine shavings for her too. She got 2 rope bones, 3 pig ears, 2 L Shapes some part of a cow bones, a water bucket and food dish and a huge bottle of shampoo because, RM was very right. She's kinda stinky. [url=http://s166.photobucket.com/user/predsgirl33/media/Daisy/202_zpsgvkbe2pu.jpg.html][/URL] This is HRH Daisy Mae Bluebelle Bonnet eating. She got dry food and 2 fresh eggs from the coop. [url=http://s166.photobucket.com/user/predsgirl33/media/Daisy/205_zpsjo021l09.jpg.html][/URL] She cannot seem to keep her ears out of the food. We'll work on that and a few other things as we go along. The good news is, I have chosen a rescue to assist Monkey and I. As you all know we have a large pack at 7. I want to try to make it 8. But it might not work out. The rescue is going to let me use their discounted prices at the vet. Which is AWESOME. She has an appointment for Tuesday, she will get a full check up, all vaccines, heartworm and parasite tests, ears flushed and grooming if I can't get the stink out myself. My only concern at this point is that she has never had heartworm preventative. So I am a bit worried about that and if it will come back positive or not. No matter what, she will get ANYTHING and EVERYTHING she needs. Monkey and I are going to do introductions to the pack over the long weekend and hope that it can click. If not, we will just foster until a home becomes available. Some of you have reached out and offered financial assistance to me via PM. I want to thank you for that. If Monkey and I keep her, we will pay for everything ourselves. However, if we cannot keep her due to the pack, at that point I will announce the name of the rescue that is covering the costs and if you want you can then donate to the rescue. They are a 501c3 so it is a tax deductible item. I'll be sure to keep you updated on progress and what not. For now she's resting and quiet which is a good thing.

Well Happy New Years, Ladies and Gentleman! Today we spent the day going to pick up Daisy and if I am heading towards 352 I might as well go past a bit and head to Bob's to visit my favorite store ever. So exit 380 it was! Hello Bob's! Let's load up that cute little square cart you have! [url=http://s166.photobucket.com/user/predsgirl33/media/207_zpscz7xvxpt.jpg.html][/URL] I think it was loaded pretty well, got some restocks on the Woodford White Corn, bumped Monkey up from the 10yr to the 12yr Whistlepig, found some weird bottle of something called Weller 12 year?!?!?! I dunno, some crazy clerk recommended it. Widow Jane was a new one that we thought we'd try. I also grabbed the Italian Vodka for myself and some organic limes across the street at TJ's. Cape Cod here I come! In all seriousness, Monkey and I wish you all a Happy and Prosperous New Year! Edit: For all the Squires, that is an Original White Rabbit Saloon from the Jack Daniels Distillery down in Lynchburg. Monkey's dad picked it up while they were doing a renovation there. Little fun fact.

I used to worked with a guy who had them. He had flare ups all the time. I'm so sorry! Get to feeling better soon!

Welcome aboard! Former Muskegonite/Michigander here. You'll love it here!

I posted her on my Instagram. Yes I am one of those nerds. I just received a private message from a woman all the way in NY that I have been friends with offering me financial assistance with her vetting and care. Kindness is EVERY WHERE, you just have to be open to seeing it. This world has become a little rough. Daisy is proof there is still good in the world!

I can't see anything past the amazing boots. What can? What gun? All I see is S-t-y-l-e!!!

You say dog; I say give it to me. LOL You say baby; I say no thanks (unless that's a baby puppy). Dogs have a very soft spot in my heart and it's due to Bailey. The first dog I ever adopted. Ever since then I've sworn to never buy when I can adopt. I also refuse to let a girl like this go. I've got our basement set with a 10' x 10' area that has a bed and food bowls. She'll have full run of the yard and we'll foster her until we find her a home through the local rescue. In the mean time I am going to focus on getting her weight up.

Reefers done the hard stuff so far, I got a crate all loaded in the back of my Sequioa already for her. I can't wait to meet the fuzz ball!

Ok, so this morning I received an email from 2 rescues. AARF is the major one here in Cookeville. They mostly pull from the White County animal shelter. And it is at capacity right now. They'll take her in and vet her, but I'll have to be the foster. Which is fine. We have 2 acres that are fenced for dogs. I've also received an email for the National Black and Tan Coonhound Rescue who said they have a foster home opening up next week. So she'll be with us for a while which is ok, it'll help me get to know her. Also, if we go the AARF route, I would actually get to screen all the applicants for her and pick who gets her! Thanks Reefer for all the updates this morning and for NOT letting her horrible owner take her back!!

  I just prefer animals over humans mostly.  :up: But I'm just grateful everything is going to work out for her. I am really thankful that ReeferMac decided to share with us, so that I could help.    I even received messages from members offering help with her vetting and stuff. This is a great community that comes together when the need is there. This is a perfect example. :usa:  :up:  :wave:

  I just got word that a Foster Home has been lined up and one of the local rescues has been made aware of her. I won't have word until the morning but it looks like everything is 100% taken care of aside from me picking her up on Thursday and bringing her back. I'm really excited to meet Lil Miss Daisy! I will get her all scrubbed up and then let the Foster Home take her from there. Good times and a great family are ahead for this little girl!

She's going to be ok. I already have things lined up! The network moves fast when you know the right people. I will update everyone with status and pictures as we go. I've already got a crate donated for transporting her to my house. We've got a room I am going to get ready for her and her spay is the next step.

I just said that the other day! He's getting beefy! But I like that, so it works for me. LOL

I have women running around like crazy right now. I'm very fortunate that when I moved here I made friends with women who love animals. I have reached out to 3, I have one who will pay for her spay, another is reaching out to her contacts. I'm confident Daisy will be ok! But again, if anyone here wants her, I'll be happy to shuttle her! Edit: shuttle her to a home that keeps her indoors and not on a chain and will spay her.

LOL ok, I just get on 40 until I hit exit 380 then turn around and head home. We'll figure it out before Thursday, unless someone here claims her! If a Nashvillian wants her, I'll gladly transport or met a Memphis resident in Nashville!

didnt that get canceled?!?!?

No I live in Cookeville. LOL So let's plan on Knoxville!

I know. It took me an hour to get it all off.

I live there! I can meet you in Knoxville. We have a pack of 7 dogs. They won't receive a newbie unless it's a small adult or puppy. She looks much bigger. But if need be I can foster her in my basement until a rescue comes through. I just cannot live with her going on Craigslist. I'll have a solution soon.

What?!? Me!?!? It's my Halloween costume. I think it fits me. Who doesn't love a Fro'd out witch!?!?

I'll be in Knoxville on Thursday. I'm going to Bud's and Trader Joes. I'm networking on this right now. I'm now up to 3 rescues. Specifically for coon hounds.
