It might have been the adolescent intact maleness of Titus that Honey didn’t take to or something else completely different. As Jodi said, if only they could talk. There’s lots of questions I’d like to ask Frankie 🙂 For instance, why is any Greyhound he has never met greeted like a long lost friend when they visit or come to stay for a while yet an old mate from where we used to live isn’t welcome here?

Great that the SPCA picked Titus up so quickly and saved Honey any further discomfort. He looks like a lovely dog and I hope the right home turns up for him soon.

When I’m really struggling I will talk myself into taking a dog for a walk or playing a game with them and I find I feel better. I’ve been getting better at taking care of myself and finding out the joy it gives me. Blogging after everyone is in bed is like heaven and my total ME time.

Sorry that Titus didn’t work out with Honey. Could be as simple as some dogs don’t like other dogs. So glad Honey has you to look out for her. That’s just awesome!!

I’m sure Titus will be put in other good hands. Do take as good of car of myself as I do my dogs? Most of the time. But not this weekend. I went for a long walk with Pierson on Saturday. Since he has long hair, I got him wet first in order to help keep him cool. I put on his cooling dog collar, which is a collar that has small ice packs in it. And I brought water and a portable dog bowl along. But I forgot my cap, my sunglasses, and to wear sunscreen!

But I’m trying to be better about it.

I’m sorry things didn’t work out with Honey and Titus, but it’s good that they were understanding about coming and getting him. I had a friend have a very bad situation with a foster and her own dogs, and even after her dog was attacked, they still wanted her to keep the foster dog. Luckily she was able to stand up for her dogs and insist they come get the foster.

I agree 100% with that idea. I have cats, so I have to take care of myself or I get no respect at all.

I do take better care of Gizmo than I do of myself…I watch his diet more carefully and think aabout exercising him before I do me…But I do know that I have to stay healthy if I’m going to continue to care for him so I try…

Thank you for the kind words today about my review…It meant a lot

Well it sounds like you did the right thing for Honey, don’t you sometimes wish they could talk and tell you what is wrong?

Titus is lucky that he landed with you, someone else might have forced the issue and created a situation and someone could have lost. I know your shelter will find the right place for him.

He’s being moved again just when he was settling in. However, Honey is your dog and you did the right thing meeting Honey’s needs. You couldn’t let Honey be so uncomfortable in her own home. As for you, you would be concerned of what might happened between the two and on the look out all the time.

Let’s hope Titus finds a good forever home. He deserves it.
