How old do you think she is?

We have been lucky enough to rescue 3 dogs over the past couple of years.
From having kitties only to having a mixed family, it has been a fun experience.


The vet thinks she's around 10. But she still has the spirit of a young puppy!

That left eye looks a little glaucomatous, might better get the vet to check her eye pressure. Wink


The vet checked her out- she's definitely blind in that eye. The other one has the beginning of a catatract forming. But she's not bumping into too many walls...yet. Smile

Our last 6-7 poodles have all been rescues and like you we have fostered a great many of them and found fabulous homes for each.

We spent many hours transporting, bathing and grooming rescued poodles much to the delight of my late wife. And of course some never made it to a new family, we became there 'family'.

All I can say is Thank you.

We have adopted retired racing greyhounds for over 12 years...the look on their face when they know they have a home...priceless.

Stinky is lucky.




The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything.

True. The Maestro family is also lucky. A rescue dog can bring a lot of love to a home. I know.
