Hi everyone…well its been a while since I updated you all on George (formerly Frankie) so its catch up time! In april George will have been a member of our family for 2 years and it feels like so much longer, he fits into our home and has his routines like everyone, his habits both good and not so good like the rest of us! He is our darling and is our ray of sunshine who can put a smile on all our faces when we need one! absolutely loves his walks, the longer the better, he does not like strange men especially workmen, loves kids and can you the stink eye like the best of them…we wouldnt be without our baby George and I have added two photos of this scallywag after he sneaks an empty bag of crisps from me…so cute and such an innocent face! We can never thank you enough for bringing us together and it breaks my heart to see so many still in need, i watch the pictures go up regularly and want to take home each and everyone of them! I will try to update more regularly…best wishes to everyone
image.jpegimage (1).jpegHi everyone! Topsy arrived to us yesterday afternoon and was introduced to our George ( formerly Frankie of DID) and after a lot of sniffing and a few growls from George they seem to have settled with each other. Yesterday evening they were playing chase together around the sitting room
but our George is still a little jealous of Topsy and any attention he gets but Topsy is oblivious to all of of that and loves a cuddle and will answer to basic commands. He is easy on the lead and was well behaved on his first walk if not a little overexcited. He settled in to bed at 10.30pm and didn’t look to want out till 8 am this morning with no accidents so all good there. He is the cutest little thing and his coat is silky soft, he loves playing and is very good with the kids, gentle and light in his touch! Topsy is a little off his food but this is probably down to all the excitement so will settle down. I can’t see this guy lasting long as he is a little dote but I will post up more pics as soon as I can.
TheresaHi everyone! Just a quick update on George (Frankie) who is answering to his name now and has made himself right at home. I will post more pics soon but George has grabbed a piece of everyone’s heart here and loves nothing more than cuddling up in the evening to one of us on the sofa, goes to his bed but always gives his best sorrowful big brown eyes in case there is any chance of staying later, loves his walks and my 15 year old now gets up at ‘7am’ in the morning to walk him before school which is another little miracle as George has put new life into our home. I can’t remember what it was like before we had him and he is a joy for all…my little girl (6years) came out in hives last week and her uncle told her jokingly that maybe she was allergic to George and with a serious face he told him ‘well the doctor can give me tablets’…this is the best proof I can give on how everyone feels here and hopefully I can soon help DID in other ways as you guys are brilliant and from everyone here ‘Thank You’
Theresa Thanks Lorraine! Everyone is in love with ‘George’ (new name for Frankie) which he is already starting to answer to, we couldn’t use Frankie as that’s my brothers name
. He is a joy and is making us smile so much, he still has a lot of people to meet but we’ll Take our time with that. Thank you all so much for everything and we will update regularly on George’s new life and of course I will continue watching all these beautiful animals hoping everyone of them find their forever home soon! If there’s anything we can do to help here in County Wicklow then please ask….talk to everyone soon When we first met Frankie we all fell in love with him and today he became a part of our family and we are all thrilled, he is such a character and its already like hes been here forever. We think he might be part mountain goat as you will see from one of the pics
but he has such an expressive face and we look forward to finding out more and more. Our neighbours dog who we were dogsitting was unimpressed that he took no notice of her and kept at him till he noticed her…so funny! Thank you so much Julie, Claire and everyone at DID for bringing us together… photo george 5.JPGphoto george 3.JPGphoto george.JPGPhotos are lovely and he looks gorgeous
hopefully he’s back on form soon.
He obviously loves his cuddles and tummy rubs too…Is Frankie answering to his name yet? How did he get over his visit to the vet last week…we are thinking of him! What a great job the fosterers do, I never knew of DID till I found it while searching for our forever dog and the minute I clicked on the site I have been watching for updates daily on all the dogs. What a brilliant idea and so simple, such great work done for these poor babies.
Keep up the good work guys and hopefully our family will join the DID family soon..
