Paco,new foster

Yes I know what you will say (or think) he looks just like all my other fosters :laughing: (another senior :sad: ) I'm waiting a bit to put him up in the adoption thread because someone may already be interested in him :goodvibes:

the last one is Sam (left) and Paco...kissing ? :eek:

Ohhh, he's adorable!!!! That is AWESOME that someone may already be interested in him!!!!:thumbs up :fingerscr :pray: :goodvibes: How many do you have in your household now? :eek: You're turning into Hazel! :laughing: Just kidding! :) That is SO cool!!!!! What a handsome boy!

Wow, Frenchy, another senior Golden! How CAN someone get rid of their old dogs? Paco looks cute, I hope he finds his new family soon.
You really are a great person!

I only have 4 :laughing: I don't think I can handle 1 more, I always have 1 or 2 on meds or drops or ointment...

Suzieqt, almost all the goldens we get are olders. Guess people get tired of them :frustrated: And shelters only gives them to us (the rescue) when they are not adoptable (either sick,injured or older :sad: ) They are such wonderful dogs, that's why it's usually easy to find them nice new families who will love them for the rest of their life. :thumbs up

how sweet!!

Grr.. I don't understand people at all sometimes. How could someone give up an older dog?? Do they really, really not understand how much they mean to their dog family??

Thank goodness there are folks like you to foster and find good homes, Frenchy!! HUGS.

How could someone give up an older dog??

If only the owner just left him at the shelter, but no, she wanting him put down :frustrated: when they asked why she said he was sick. So they asked more questions and got her to say that he wasn't sick afterall , but she was moving :mad: So I guess they convinced her to not have Paco euthanize, and they call me to see if I would take him.

Awwwwwwwww Frenchy, he looks like such a sweetie....Is this the 10 year old that the owners did not want ???

No , it's another one :cool: Crazy to see how many seniors we get.

Just received some pics from the friend who picked him up for me, she took some pics of him while she was here.

He is such a handsome boy. :lovestruck: I will admit though that I have a hard time telling all your goldens apart. :o Good luck with the adoption. :fingerscr :goodvibes:

I will admit though that I have a hard time telling all your goldens apart.

I think he looks a lot like Otter's Molly and a bit like Daisy too . Julie the rescuer (the friend that picked him up) asked me how will I tell him apart from the others, but you just know when it's your dogs.

He looks like a grand old boy, Frenchy! :lovestruck: I hope he finds a wonderful home quickly. He deserves another break (the first one being finding "Frenchy the :angel:"). :thumbs up

The kissing one is sweet.:lovestruck:

Sweet old soul. Imagine putting a dog down because you're moving, bad enough to want to part with a dog after that long let alone decide to end it's life. :frustrated:

I know clm :sad: I think we are going to hear a lot about those this week. It's "Quebecers national moving day" on July 1. The leases are from July 1 and for one year so many many people move on July first, all the spca will get lots of unwanted pets this week. :sad: And they are already full capacity.

That's terrible. :sad: Sometimes people just suck...:frustrated:

I agree....it would be easier when you see them in person but it's a little harder in pictures. :o

The Ontario (well they call themselves Canadian) Golden rescue is often inundated with dogs once summer holidays start :eek: How could you give up a dog to go on vacation?????? I guess next weekend (Canada Day) is the start of the "dog days of summer". Good luck to all those poor doggies out there!:fingerscr that someone talks some sense into any owners out there thinking of giving up a dog in lieu of holidays!

So many places you can take dogs with you on vacation, why not plan to take them along?
I just don't get it.:shrug: :confused:

Paco is sooooooooooo lucky to have landed in :angel: Frenchy's hands. I know he's in good hands.

I certainly agree with you, Otter.

Thank goodness he came to you! He looks like a real sweetheart! Good luck with his adoption.

A collective GRRRRRRRRR from all of us for those dumb-@sses who insist on dumping their dogs for all kinds of stupid reasons!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: If I ever found someone like that, oh what I would like to do to them.....!!! :evil:

Glad to hear you may already have someone interested in Paco, Frenchy. He looks like a sweet angel. What a happy face! I love the one of him kissing one of your other goldens (is it Sam?).

Thanks Frenchy, for taking care of these senior saints! Good luck Paco! :fingerscr

Awww he looks sweet. And the one of them "kissing"! So cute!!! :lovestruck:

I'm glad he got rescued!!! Stupid people who would kill a dog like that!

Aww he is soooo handsome. Frenchy, you are an :angel:

I love the one of him kissing one of your other goldens (is it Sam?).



Yes it is Sam. And after 24 hours at my place , it's been confirm , Paco is an :angel: he is such an easy dog, cudly, follows me everywhere, tail always wagging. It would be very easy to fall in love with him (actually,I already am :p ) Thank dog I'm not Hazel :laughing:

Are you doubting hazel's will-power, Frenchy? :frustrated: Oh? What will-power is that hazel? :laughing:

:rolleyes: Don't even go there :laughing:

So is Paco with the foster now? Any word on that possible adoption? Oh, I hope it works out! Poor baby deserves nothing but happiness. That is so sad about July 1st being a common desertion day for dogs. :sad:

So is Paco with the foster now?

Sure ! His foster family you mean ? It's me :D It's looking very good for his adoption , the lady already adopted a senior golden from us years ago, her dog died not long ago. She's been looking / waiting for another senior, I sent her pics and a description of Paco and she sounds really interested. :highfive:

Paco Paco Paco Paco hehehehehe

I've said it before and I'll say it again - I really am in awe of people that rescue and foster. You guys (ok mostly gals :p ) are truly amazing and I continue to have the deepest respect for your love and dedication to the animals. :highfive: :goodvibes: :grouphug:

Sincerely,

Marko

I can't speak for Frenchy but I know I am so thrilled that we were able to match Paco with his new mom. It makes it all so worthwhile. His new mom has e-mailed me and asked me to thank Frenchy so I thought I would do it publicly.

:thumbs up Thank you Frenchy:thumbs up

Now all we have to work out is getting him from Sherrington to Toronto.

Any ideas?:D

:laughing: Coppperbelle , let's wait and see when Paco can get to my vet :laughing: ...then we'll pressure people to help for transport :evil:

LOL I'm not pressuring anyone, just trying to get organized and when he is ready have everything lined up and ready to go. :D
I'm what you call pro-active.

Oooo, you'll have to have another pets.ca Montreal meet-up. Worked for Molly!!! (THANKS Stacer:thumbs up)

I am glad I saw this thread,I was a little confused as to who Paco was in another thread:confused:
About people who are capable of dumping a senior dog:evil: I won't even go there...I just could never understand:sad:
Paco was one of the lucky ones,his :angel: 's found him and he'll never be dumped again:dog:

Awwwww Paco is such a beauty!!! Thank goodness he found you:angel:

For those who remember Paco and his mom .... Unfortunately , Paco died last week end. He had a wonderful 4 years with his mom.

Good news is , his mom has asked me to find her another senior golden to spend her days with. :)

I know :) this golden is (suppose to) be at an adoption clinic today. Wouldn't surprise me if she gets adopted because ... well .... she's adorable ! If not , we'll see. :)

I remember Paco, too. :( My condolences to his Mom!

She's an angel for taking in these seniors in need. I hope she finds the perfect match soon!
