Our Temporary Foster, Hannah (or, as Chris prefers to call her, Kimchi)

This is my temporary foster, Hannah. (Who Chris insists in calling Kimchi.)

She flew in from South Korea today with another pug and a terrier mix. They all arrived in excellent shape after flying in a temperature-controlled cargo area of Asiana Air. The other two dogs went to their forever homes. Hannah is going to stay with me for a while until she find her forever home and while she recuperates from her LP Surgery. She is probably 3 years old and has had at least one litter of puppies (probably more). I suspect she was a puppy mill dog that raised dogs for meat.

The first thing she did (after going potty - ahhhhhhhh) was roll around in the ivy. FREEDOM!

We then got in the car and drove to the vet for a check-up.

She has a slight ear infection and I need to do some PT on her LP leg to help her heal better. Otherwise, she's in decent shape - all 14 pounds of her. Her fur is much more coarse than Thurston's and she is a bit on the thin side but a couple of weeks of Auntie Lisa's Raw Food Extravaganza should fix that!

The one thing I did notice about her tonight is that she doesn't seem to have a voice. She both makes barking and howling motions but very little sound comes out. I'm not sure what's going on there and I fear she has had her bark removed. (Although, instead of barking noises she was making "barking spider" noises which made me laugh so hard I almost choked).

The cats are all completely fine with her (weird) and Thurston thinks her butt smells good. :roll:
