Fostering....Again
« on: February 26, 2006, 01:26:55 pm »
I am fostering a cute 36lb australian shepherd/lab mix female, Lucy.  I had her brother Mack for a night but we decided it would be best for both of them to seperate them.  Neither has ever been in a house before. 
 :D{knock on wood} No accidents in the house or the cage (yet) {knock on wood} ;D.

I am slowly introducing her to my dogs; who are very interested and really want to play.  I don't want to overwhelm her or make it a negative experience especially right after taking her brother away.

Attached are pictures of Lucy and Mack.  Let me know what breed you think they are.  We don't know for sure if they are brother and sister, they were found together.
Thanks,

Emily and 1 husband, 1 boy, 1 on the way, and 4 crazy dogs

Aw they look sweet. :) They could easily be siblings who are lab/border collies. That's what they look like to me anyways. :)

Too cute!

Lucy looks alot like an aussie mix...she's a gorgeous girl.  As far as them being brother and sister..it's possible litters can vary in appearance.

I agree... check out this picture of Mokey with one of her littermates!

Lucy looks like she could be an Aussie mix, but I don't see it in her brother at all. Who knows, sometimes you can never tell! They are both cutie pies though!!
True love is being gone all day, and coming home to a dog who licks your face.

I would guess Aussie/Lab because it looks like they have some spots on feet and nose.  It could just be the pictures though.  I am in love with Mack.  He is too cute.
