LIFE IS GRAND
 
Report from Ismir in her Foster Home:
 
“Hello everybody!  This is the stunning Ismir writing from my foster home.  Let me start by saying that living with my rescue foster parents and boxer siblings in a ‘normal’ home is waaaaay different from my previous life.
 
The very first thing my foster parents noticed was that I think everything I do should be done in a crate (food, treats, sleeping, or hanging out).  That is how I was taught.  Now that I am in Rescue my foster parent’s are doing a great job of changing all these stifling habits so I can have more fun.
 
Life is now grand and I am learning (quickly =) about all the comforts available to me.  This is what I have picked up on so far; couches and beds are for dogs, laps are for sitting on, toys should be scattered throughout the room as soon as they are put away, walks and hikes should come often and, one of my favorites, there are no rules involved in getting treats.
 
I feel like I have lived with my foster family for years.  I instantly fit in with my three foster siblings and they even like to cuddle with me and play tug of war.  They are the best too.  I want to spoil my parents as much as they will spoil me.  I love to give kisses.
 
Oops, I almost forgot.  I went to the vet’s yesterday and all my tests came back great; I also received the shots that I needed so I am ready to go!  I don’t mean to brag but I am a really great catch, and a very, very good girl.  You know what they say, 'honesty is the best policy.”

A LONG JOURNEY INTO THE NIGHT AND BACK
 
We received an email regarding a beautiful four year old female boxer we have named Ismir.  She previously belonged to a breeder and was a former show dog.  She had two litters but sadly only three pups in total survived; so the breeder decided to place her in a home.
 
Ismir was adopted from the breeder by an older couple who obviously loved her very much.  Unfortunately, the husband died in November 08 and the wife lost her home.  She had to move to elderly housing where there were no dogs allowed.
 
She placed Ismir with a friend in December 08, who is a breeder, and the friend decided she could no longer care for Ismir.  We were told, if we did not want her she would place an ad in the local paper giving her away for free.  We could not let that happen.
 
We quickly made arrangements to pick up IsmIr before the woman could change her mind…..and so the long journey began.  Due to the unexpected side trip to pick up Sadie at the shelter, we did not arrive to meet Ismir until very late in the evening.
 
We discovered that Ismir is more stunning than her pictures and her disposition is extraordinary.  She greeted us happily and jumped right into the car.  Ismir accepted meeting Sadie with no problems and smothered us with kisses.
 
She is great on a leash; always greeting everyone she sees with her little nub wagging a mile a minute.  She rides well in the car, and when we began the long ride home, she promptly fell asleep in the backseat.
 
Ismir is an absolutely fantastic dog and is a true gem.  The only negative about Ismir is that she apparently does not care for cats.  She has an appointment with the vet later this week to get an exam and to update her inoculations etc.  She will be available for adoption as soon as we get a "thumbs up" from the doctor.
