WHAT AN EXHAUSTING DAY!

Heather is getting much more comfortable! Nothing left to do but nap after we got home from work, she ate her dinner and been on two walks.

ENJOYING THE COMFORTS OF HOME

Hello Everyone - Heather here. Today has been a good day. I am feeling a little more comfortable here at Camp Davis. You know that "not so nice Mutt" I told you about, I was right. She was just scared, she has figured out that I am a great gal. I sat back and watched her and her foster sister Sera playing yesterday, then I invited that Mutt to come play with me. We had fun for a little while, but then she got too roudy and mom had to calm her down, but I showed her what a fun gal I am. She hasn't snapped at me or curled her lip at me the last two days so I figure we got a friendship starting. She even shares her dog beds with me. I knew I could turn her around. My foster mom says WOW you are just the most amazing lady.

Woooooo!!! My foster mom is sooooo excited. Tonight I ate dinner. Mom mixed some Solid Gold canned food, with water and Wysong Nurture with Free-Range Pheasant and foster dad held my bowl and I lapped it up. Mom was so excited that she fixed me another small bowl and I ate that too. My first real meal since I arrived. My mom was really getting worried, so I figured I better show her I can eat. What really prompted me is that she told me tomorroiw I get to see Hope. I am so excited, Hippity-Hop. It has been very hard to be away from my babies. I am really worried about them, I am desperately searching for them when my foster mom takes me on my walks every day. I know these IBR folkes are just hiding them from me. But tomorrow I will be very relieved when I can see that HOPE is OK. Now mom needs to get busy and see if she can get me visits with Courage, he isn't that far away from her house and that car works just fine.

My mom tells me those people at the shelter are wonderful saints. They have made me the most loving, strong lady. Foster mom and dad are both spending as much time cuddling and loving me. I am very good at telling them where I want to be rubbed.

I JUST KEEP LOOKING!

IBR was able to save our lives but, they didn't have a foster home that could take my entire family. For the first time in a LONG time, I understand that I am safe. I still worry about Hope and Courage. We defeated death, as a family, on many occassions! It is so hard to be with out them! My foster mom is concerned because I don't want to eat or drink anything. I just look sad! She did the nicest thing for me...she is setting up play dates with Hope and Courage! I can't wait! I have to believe that somone out there will have extra room in their lives for me and maybe one of my kids! I won't give up!

I HAVE A HOME...SORT OF

Life has been a little confusing. I left the shelter that I lived in for a few months and arrived at a foster home. Everyone is so amazed at how I have adapted to the world. They were so impressed with my perserverance that they named me after another amputee, Heather Mills! I love the other dogs in my foster home! But, something isn't right in my world! I really miss Hope and Courage! I know that I shouldn't ask for anything because I am so lucky just to be alive. BUT...I'd love a home that I could share with my kids.
