why everyone should foster
In: Foster Pets| Local
1 Mar 2010The General and I have been fostering puppies and dogs and the occasional kitten for close to a year now for Pet Project Rescue, an organization ran out of Northeast Minneapolis. The General had done it before, but wound up keeping the dogs. I knew that wasn’t happening, so I figured I’d give it a [...]
someone adopt this dog
In: Foster Pets| Photos| Riley
17 Feb 2010Seriously, because if you don’t, I’m probably going to cave and do it. Yes, I know we’ve only had him for a week, but c’mon. LOOK AT THAT FACE.
But here’s why I won’t adopt him. Riley’s not a fan. At all. The General, Riley, Kentucky and I are all sitting in the bedroom, which is [...]

2 Feb 2010After you watch the above video (or at least part of it), you should go here and vote for Pete as the MVP! Pete was our foster dog through Pet Project Rescue. When he lived with us, his name was Merlyn and is pretty much tied as my favorite foster dog we’ve had so far. [...]
foster dog #9

10 Jan 2010Meet Merlyn, the latest foster dog we welcomed into our home yesterday through Pet Project Rescue. Since April of 2009 when we started fostering, we’ve had two foster kitten (Colby and Fletcher) and nine foster dogs (Peeka, River, Ruby, Eddie, Elsa, Adolfo, Gypsy, Cosme and now Merlyn). I think. I hope I’m not forgetting anyone.

I know, right? I’ll wait for you to stop gushing and showing all your friends her picture.
She just flew up from Mexico a little over a week ago with the organization that we foster for, Pet Project Rescue. Her owners moved out of their home, leaving Elsa, her mom, and her two siblings to [...]
you should be a foster
In: Foster Pets| Local
14 Jul 2009You know the only time I ever post is if I have new pictures or I need something, right? Well, good, because this is no exception.
For the past few months, we’ve been working with Pet Project Rescue, fostering animals that have come from less than crappy situations and finding them really awesome homes where they [...]
hi again it’s me
10 May 2009We just dropped off our foster dog to her new home. Happy Mother’s Day to Peeka’s new mom!
Our Mother’s Day was spent trying to get a foreign object out of the toilet. The General’s been working on that for the past three days, but one final day of jamming an auger up and down both [...]
meet peeka
In: Family| Foster Pets
27 Apr 2009This is Peeka! She’s a six (or so) year old Pekignese. And, no, she’s not winking at you. She only has one eye.
A few weeks ago, The General and I were at the St. Anthony Park Dog Park letting Kentucky and Riley chase each other around a gigantic fenced area. Kentucky was happily chasing other [...]
