Found Beagle

The kitties are tolerating her, they sleep within a foot of her and will gladly nibble at her food. They still smack her when she gets too close. She's an all around good dog, nothing phases her. She barks and bays at game but not horses, sheep, goats etc. She will most likely stay with us if the owner doesn't turn up, not sure what else I can do to find them.
You've gone above, and beyond to find her people, so just sit back, and enjoy your new Pup! Congrats! What are you naming her?

AWWW I am so glad that you have been taking care of her. She wouldn't last more than a few days at the shelter due to her age as you know.
You are such a good person to keep her like you have, and to get her the vet care she needs,

Not sure if you remember the fat cat Poppy that I offered for adoption about a year and a half ago? We took in Jazz and Poppy as a pair of male buddies. Jazz ended up with a blocked urinary tract and had to be put down a few months after we took them in. Well Poppy is 12 years old now and still with the foster. It's hard to adopt out older cats, especially one like Poppy that gets cranky. Well, a trip to the vet recently to check on his sudden weight loss revealed he has diabetes and he's getting 2 shots each day of insulin. With his health as it is, it appears the foster is in it for the long haul with Poppy and they will be keeping him.

just to show you how small the critter world can be ....

When the foster took him to their vet of the past 30 or so years to update his shots earlier this year, they said hey that's Poppy - we know him. He was a patient here in the past. Isn't that something? They already knew he wasn't going to be agreeable to vet care LOL

Is Poppy eating dry food? If the foster family acts fast and switches Poppy to a low carb canned food (grain-free canned food), they can possibly cause the diabetes to go into remission and no longer need to give insulin injections. (The prescription diabetic diets from the vet are NOT low carb.) This is known as a diet-controlled diabetic. A great site for info is felinediabetes.com The forums are great for offering help.

She's doing great. My kids named her Lulubella, Lulu for short. New collar, leash, and thundershirt, (separation anxiety) she is becoming ours. But, if her owner turns up, I'm sure she would be happy to see them.

Thanks I will pass the information on as they prefer Poppy be as happy as possible. He isn't thrilled with the injections, as you might imagine.
