{Meet Charlie}

This is Charlie, or Charlie Brown.  He is a Pointer.  He looks pretty close to full blood to me, he has great markings and a beautiful coat.  He is a dog that we are fostering until he finds his forever home.  He is about 8-9 months old, that is what the vet is guessing.  A male.  He is really skinny right now, so we are working on fattening him up.  He is really sweet, but very scared of noises.  I am not sure how he would do with hunting, I am not a hunter and won't be training him for that.  I am not sure when he will be ready for adoption.  As of right now, he we are working on learning some manners.  Such as crate training, no jumping, and normal social skills for a young dog.  I am fostering him through http://sparshawnee.org/ if you are interested in meeting him!

Pup

I have been thinking about getting a pup.  We had one over the summer but decided to rehome him due to money issues, but I miss him all the time.  So now I am trying to decide to either get a full blood with a full blood price, or a mutt and "save a life".  I use to have a dog rescue from 2001-2003, and saved over 120 dog lives.  I loved being around the dogs, even the barking didn't drive me crazy.  I didn't have that many all at once, I had between 20-30 at a time though.  No I don't want that many dogs, my house would blow up!  It isn't big enough.  One maybe two dogs, tops.  Thinking one for now.  I could even foster dogs, but that may be a little harder with the kids.  I could only foster puppies nothing that is going to attack a kid.  I am a member with the local animal rescue, or I was, so fostering with them would be fine I bet.  Or just go by one.  Something to think about...
