With the rescue being so full after a recent puppy mill raid, I agreed to take on a second foster. I'll be taking Grommet since I live so close to the eye specialist (you can see from his pictures he has some issues). I met Grommet this week and he's adorable even though my pictures are not good so hopefully he'll get along with my dogs and this will all work out. I've never fostered a chocolate before so I'm kind of excited to get some good pictures of him out in the sunlight.

He's adorable. It looks like he has glaucoma, poor baby. I hope they can get that taken care of quickly if that's what it is because it's supposedly very painful. Best wishes that everything works out with your other kiddos.

Poor baby! Those eyes hurt me! He's a pretty boy even with them. I hope the specialists can fix him all up.

Thanks for helping him.

I picked Grommet up earlier today. He's 32lbs of pure cheer :hp He's been getting along with the dogs/humans/rats/cats wonderfully so far. His eyes do look a bit ghastly so I'm ready to get him to the vet the second I get the call from the rescue group. He's also in need of a better haircut, the Jheri curl look is just not working for him.
