We Got A New Dog
 

This is what happens when you go to South Lake Animal League (aka The League).

Meet (for now) Joyce.
Quiet, calm, and just perfect for us.
She has heartworms. Never had a dog that had to go through heartworm treatment. So we came home with a ton of oral syringes.
I think she is going to fit right in.
We are open to suggestions for a name. They don't know what her "real" name is.

Congratulations! She is absolutely adorable. Her ears make her look like a butterfly.

Congrats she is cute as a button! Hope you have many years of fun with her.

She looks like Ginger. Ginger Snap.

Another fur baby finds a great Villages home, congrats to all in your family.

So happy for her, and you.

Thank you for rescuing Joyce!

An absolute little doll. I love rescues, they are the best !
She resembles a small deer ....how about Fawn for a name ?

She definitely has a set of ears on her and she sure uses them. Doesn't miss a sound, but how could you with ears like that? :)

Thank you so much. I think she is going to be an amazing companion.

CFrance,

I am considering that as a name. She does look like a Ginger. Time will reveal what here name will be. Luckily, right now she just comes to about anything.

Beware! Mention poop and this thread will go viral!

Debfrommaine,

Thanks so much. It feels good having two furkids again.

Gracie,

Thank you so much. We are very excited and feel very fortunate to have found such a sweet little girl.

jgm3279,

She is going to be a wonderful addition to our family.

Bitsee,

My husband said the same thing about her looking like a deer. We'll have to put Fawn on our list of possible names. Thanks.

Bambi?

This is the pup from...Yo Quiero Taco Bell!

What a cutie pie. The perfect name is Carlita. How about Mighty?

Still trying to get up the Ooomp to get the next dog. We had a perfect offer of a Golden retriever who looks like someone else's dog on TOTV'S who I am friends with but I couldn't do it. Soon I hope.

Happy for you and your pup.

She looks like a chihuahua mix. They can be a lot of work. Hope she is a calm one?

We have had Beau for about 4.5 years and he thinks he is a Great Dane. He was from Max's Pet Connection and he looks a lot like our previous pooch Sport who died 5 days before we adopted Beau. He can be very noisy.

GeoGeo, Great news and congratulations! :bigbow: to all those who adopt fur kids.

Yoda. She is super cute. Praying she overcomes heart worm.

Did they not have any "real" dogs?

How about Cujo. Most little ones, do not know that they are little, ha!

Dogs do have no concept of size. The alpha is always the one with the biggest personality and it is very often a small dog.

I'll take the golden!


Carlita is good. How about Taco?

How is "Joyce" doing, and did you rename her?

Oh, yes! Bambi!!

Very funny -- you sound like my husband. We lost our 14-year-old Yorkie this year -- he was about 12 pounds. If we get another dog I am going to fight to go even smaller LOL.

I look at this dog and for some reason, "Matilda" comes to mind. I don't know why -- I don't think I even care for that name but that's what she reminds me of for some reason.

Regardless :welcome: and congratulations on the addition of a "real dog" to your family.

How about Papillon for a name?

Mrs. BK we are sorry to hear of your loss. I know its a tough thing to go through.

We are watching a Cocker Spaniel for a friend who went away for a week and the dog is so quiet and calm. Our old boy kept the house lively and you knew he was around and heard him constantly. I am honored that these friends let us take care of their baby and even though she is about 25-30 lbs I would still want a whopper like our Buddy Mr. Barney. He was between 90 & 100 lbs.

You know you are one of our favorite TOTV'S people and we moved and went through similar stuff several years ago to get here. I wish you peace quickly after your pup's passing. :pray:

To name the OP'S dog something from the Taco Bell menu may work but Matilda sounds good to me also.

I'm sorry you lost your Yorkie. It's always heartbreaking to lose a pet.
We adopted a young yorkie/cairn terrier from Max's Pet Connection. He was full grown and weighed nine lbs.
When you're ready, please consider a rescue from Maxine.
Max doesn't have a shelter, all her dogs are fostered. She has her dogs outside Petsmart every Saturday morning. :doggie:

What a sweetie pie! If she were mine I would be smooching that precious little face up and telling her what a sweet baby girl she is so I guess my vote would be for "Baby". She definitely does not look like a Joyce. Best wishes for lots of good health and happy years for your little girl in her new family.

Thank you so much for adopting. Best of luck in her recovery.

I too like the name "Ginger".

I have been so busy with the auctions for the rescues I volunteer with that I haven't had time to answer each and every one of you. Thank you all for your well-wishes and comments. She is a wonderful addition to our family and gets along well with our other dog. She has a little face that we just can't resist. Thank you all so much.

But what's her name?

YOU are a dear. Thank you for sharing this adventure.

Sorry for your loss, BK. It’s so painful.

LOL about going for less than twelve pounds. When we got Abby Gale, she was about 25 pounds. I was hoping for no more than 30-35. Well, now at 61 pounds...

Love Ginger Snap! I thought of ginger, too.
