What'll You Do...

... when you get lonely?

Laila!


This is our latest foster dog. She's only a young thing and still acts very much like a puppy. It's been hard for her to be in quarantine, because she's a typical Pit Bull and typical Pit Bulls love to be around people. Not stuck in an empty room listening to people on the other side of the door.


Anyway she's young, she's cute, she's friendly, and she has no obvious issues. I would think she would get adopted pretty quickly after her quarantine's over and she's spayed.

Or, in a perfect world, that's how it would be able to happen. But... for the SECOND time in a row, mere days after landing at our house, this darned dog has gone into heat. Buttercup did the same thing.

Sigh.

More blankets covering the carpets and couch. More constant mopping of floors. To make things more fun, the neighbour's extra-large young Mastiff dog is an un-neutered male, and constantly loose. I'm certain that at some point over the next two weeks we'll have to kick a 130-pound dog off of Laila while we're taking her on a walk.


Excuse me Mr. Mastiff, but she's not that kind of girl.

Good Grief!! Is there something in your water?

Put a diaper or underwear on her when you take her out. Hell even in the house to reduce the clean up! :D

She is beautiful though! Mr. Mastiff would have good taste though. If only he weren't thinking with the wrong head. *sigh* Typical guy. ;)
