A few weeks ago I decided that I really wanted another canine fur baby. One that would hike with me in the bush, that wants to play with a frisbee or ball and is generally quite active in order to facilitate some rehabilitation for me.

Rosie, our resident QUEEN Dachshund,




 is adorable, but - as most hounds go - she has her nose to the ground non-stop and we make very little progress when out and about, or she will run off after a rabbit and ignore my ball throwing efforts!
 She still gets a walk every day, or Wayne will even race her with the bike (not a bad effort for an 88yr old doggie lady!) but I am pining for that hiking companion.
Wayne was a bit reluctant and had all sorts of objections, but he is understanding and was easily persuaded.

So, yesterday we visited the RSPCA in Bendigo... well it was quite a sad sight. All these abandoned dogs, some with horrific abuse stories behind them, it was a miracle that we left empty handed. Did you know they only have 36 days at the most to find a new home for them... after that they will get euthanised. Although - some dogs are so traumatised that it may be the kindest thing for them anyway.
We agreed that it would be best to wait until I return from my little visit to Perth at the end of the month so I could take charge of the new family member and train it.

So today I was checking out 'DUSTY Dogs' instead - and here is what I have found!!!
