9-1-10 Did you know that I am a brindle dog with LOTS of flash? That's what my foster dad says - because my spots are brindle. I am doing pretty good on my heartworm treatment. I have to be on a leash or in a crate ALL of the time. I really wish I could play - but I have to say always being right with a person has its perks. I get (and give) lots of loving! I will get my next shot in early September and I will be declared heartworm free in early October. I can't wait!!! Do you have space in your family for a flashy flashy brindle? Cuz here I am!!!
8/9/10 Hey there folks! Im getting ready to go in for my heartworm treatment any day now. I know I wont feel good for a while but I am hoping that passes quickly. I plan to catch up on movies since I will be on bed rest. Luckily my foster family enjoys movie time I should be able to watch all of the good ones! I am going to work really hard on getting better quickly so I am ready for my forever family. Pray for me and send good thoughts my way! Marnie
7-12-10 Hi! Its me, Marnie again. I have been busy since I last wrote. I LOVE to go to the park and meet new people and dogs. My foster mom takes me for walks and I do fine, but I would rather RUN. I am really friendly and love everyone. The slumber parties we have over here are great because I get to make more and more friends. I even climbed up to visit a lady who was in one of those scooter things. She was really nice. All I want is cuddles and toys (lots of toys). If I am being honest (which I guess I am), I am a little bit obsessed with my toys. My foster mom says that I am one of the only dogs she knows who can play ball all by myself! I hit the ball and chase it, then pick it up and drop it, and hit it again. Its awesome! I am looking forward to meeting my forever family, so please apply for me soon!
6-2-10 Ruff Ruff Ruff! Marnie here... and I am ready to P L A Y! I am so happy to be in my foster home where I can play and cuddle with dogs and people - but what I really want is my forever home, where I will be loved forever. My foster mom is AMAZED at how well I run but I don't understand why... I have been running like this for a LONG time. I had a big accident and my right front elbow is locked in a slightly bent position. I use that front paw to play with toys and pet my people - but I don't need it when I run. I know what the big outdoors is made for... playing with balls, sticks, and anything else that is available! WAHOOOOO! They are telling me that I have heartworms, whatever those are. Sounds like I am going to have to get some nasty shots and be on bedrest for WEEKS! UGH! I guess I will just have to chew on bones and squeaky toys and watch some TV. Hope there's more on than just reRUNS, get it? HAHAHA. Everyone here says I am a sweet girl because I love everyone, human and canine both! Please keep me in your thoughts as I go through my treatment, and contact Blue Ridge Boxer Rescue if you can help me find my forever home! www.blueridgeboxerrescue.com http://goanimate.com/go/movie/0UVlxP5bUmU8?utm_source=emailshare&refuser=0BBQgGr_V9M8 5-17-10 More to come on Marnie **ADOPTION DONATIONS ARE: Unless otherwise noted 8 Weeks - 4 Months $350 4 Months - 8 Months $300 8 Months - 1 Year $275 Over 1 year- $250 Adoption Donations of Boxer Mix Adults and Boxer Mix Puppies vary depending on veterinary expenses on a case by base basis.
