This is what a 2 time failed foster dad looks like. Polly picked him and Roy seems OK with that.

Polly Picturesque!

If you are wondering if little Polly is a people-person, just see her with foster dad Jim...

How can you resist THIS little girl??

Polly is doing wonderfully in foster care and loves her meals.
Look at those cute eyes and tell me you don't want to take her home???

Getting Better every day!

Little Miss Polly is healing up nicely and is gaining some much needed weight. Look what only a few weeks in loving foster care can accomplish!!

A happy Girl!

Polly continues to be a happy, playful, sweet dog. She has put on over 5 pounds already and was spayed on 9/11. She's recovering wonderfully and has a ton of energy. She likes rope toys and her plastic ball the most. She's a poeple person and wants to be close by most of the time. As long as I'm in the room she will chase after her toys and play. She is great in the crate not making a noise and knows "kennel". She's getting the hang of frozen chicken wings after watching her foster brother. She will make her first dog park visit on Saturday with a bunch of IBR birddogs!

Polly was pulled from an Illinois shelter just as her time was up. She's with her new foster dad now, who reported upon her arrival: Here are the pics I took of Polly when we got home. She is very skinny, maybe a bit more them Waylin was when he first came to me. She's very sweet, inquisitive and a confident girl. She ran right up to Roy the first time in the yard and has kept trying to get him to play. In that regard she's much like Olina was.

Her tail just wags like crazy when you pet her or give her attention. She freaked out in the bath when I turned the sprayer on, but settled down and was pretty good. She let me try to clean her ears with no problems. I think if I would have kept petting her then she would have fallen asleep. She's got a huge appetite, so with good food she should put some weight on quickly. Lisa gave her some Cracker Barrel (surprise!) and she has eaten everything I have given her - cheese and her dinner. She ate about two cups of Mmillennia with a little canned mixed in. I was giving her some plan kibble to take the pics and she wolfed that right down.

She's laying behind me as I type this now, trying to keep her head up. She doesn't want to give in to sleep. LOL
