Taking on this sweet lass as a foster (with an option to keep).
Despite being an absolute tank, she was being beaten up by the Cavalier King Charles spaniel she lived with, so the bloody owners just abandoned her!
I’m off to buy a Saints jumper for her.

Really respect people who foster unfortunate animals. I just don’t get how you can give them up once you’ve created a trust and relationship with them. All strength to you. I would end up with 50 dogs.

When I say “option to keep”, what I really mean is “I’m keeping unless she eats one of the cats, and even then, it has to be the WRONG cat”.Really respect people who foster unfortunate animals. I just don’t get how you can give them up once you’ve created a trust and relationship with them. All strength to you. I would end up with 50 dogs.

Yeah, I got a rescue dog and said the same thing. Broke my new iPhone when it bowled me over trying to make myself look like a great guy on Facebook for taking the campaigner on and ate the leg of my $2500 danish chair in the first week and still didn't send her back. Since ate the seatbelt in the back of my car and bit through multiple tyres and still going years later. I like nutter dogs better than boring ones.

Cousins had a German Shepherd called Sheba when I was a kid. Hey, you aren't so messed up after all!

Cutie but no-one's stealing your car from your driveway from now on. That's a proper dog.

I had a German called Prince as a kid.
Absolutely top tier dogs, them.
Sheebs is an American Staffy… we think. She looks like a murder machine, but is already dolling out face licks.

Not at all. Very sweet and polite so far.
Big test will be when she and the cats get to actually meet each other, not just see each other through a window.
Worst case, we just foster her, which is the basis on which we have her for now.
Hope it works out, she looks a ripper.

Aaaaaand it’s over. She just went for one of the cats.
She’s a beautiful girl. Wonderful nature otherwise. Just has to be a one pet house.
I’m heartbroken.

The little “doodle” dogs are the smartest most loving little dogs out there.
Just spent a couple of months with my daughter who has two of them. Pretty sure I’ve bonded with the pup one.
Great if you love little house dogs. Very playful too.

Already settled in - in her new favorite spot keeping an eye on the lorikeets, rosella's, wattle birds and spine bills.

Wish I was here last off season, better late than never.
She's been a lot of work, has big shoes to fill (had 2 other shepherds growing up) but Willow is the first that's truly mine and not just a fluffy sibling.

Mate, do you live in Paradise?
