Nazz Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I thought it was about time to introduce the newest member of our household. I'd like you to meet Diesel, our new pup. He is one of three we fostered during the summer. They were with us for 2 weeks before going to their forever homes. Diesel of course, stayed with us. The other 2 have good homes and are doing fine. Diesel is a cornucopia of breads. Here is some of the list. Sheppard, Husky, Lab, American bulldog, Rotwieler, English bulldog and Norwegian elkhound. These are the major contributors to his DNA. The little Devil has been keeping me so busy I have hardly had time to build or even post here. I wasn't sure if I was ready to get another dog, so we thought fostering would be a good way to see if the time was right. Well, here we are. Meet Diesel!

1972coronet Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I love those photos ! He's chewing-up that '77-'78 Monaco ! Fostering companion animals is such a wonderful act . My girlfriend's neighbours foster cats ; the latest one was Bob ( the name my girlfriend gave him because of the cat's short tail ) . He was so friendly and handsome --- I wanted to bring him home , but he was already spoken for . Enjoy your new buddy ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Just look at that face. Got to love this guy. On the list of breads you left off Fence Jumper. Better find him a different chew toy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollySipper Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Sharp Dog! You can really see the Husky and Shepherd in him....... Mixed dogs make for the most well behaved and ailment free pets.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomerS Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Proper term is 'foster failure'......and congratulations for joining that club! The pet food pantry (closed a few years ago)/dog rescue (currently winding down operations) I worked with in the past fostered all the dogs they picked up from shelters. I said I could never be one of their fosters as one you are in my house, it's their furever home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slusher Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Great looking pup, enjoy your new buddy. Love the name... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazz Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 Thanks guys, my wife named him. Just so there is no misunderstanding about the model was used as a prop, I certainly wouldn't want him to get the taste for plastic! He was a great model, posed well! Also I wouldn't want him to hurt himself chewing in the car. He introduced himself to a magpie and a squirrel this morning ,at separate times although he was polite I don't think either were impressed.

Dave Ambrose Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Congratulations! I'm a cat guy, but he's adorable. Sounds like he's got himself a nice home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazz Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 Thanks Dave, that's something coming from a cat guy! He had a play date with 8 on his siblings this morning. What a riot! I thought he'd sleep al afternoon, but no dice. A little cat nap and he's good to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
