An update from her new family. "She is wonderful! The kids have really gotten attached to her and she has fit right into our home and routine. Our other dog "Charlie" initiates play time a lot now and they get along great. No fights at all. Kari loves to run around in our yard and hunt up any kind of critters that have come thru. The deer really confuse her. <br />She was extremely shy in the beginning, cowering about everything, but now she is very happy. We have some work to do to get her leash trained, she is just terrified on the leash. My plan is to take her to some "fun" places like the park and nature preserve, so she can see that the leash is no big deal. Also, puppy school in the spring."<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/629455692982013598-6909940967653843682?l=ibrkarisma.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>IBR Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11233223795985479958noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629455692982013598.post-12690493444568913022008-11-10T20:49:00.000-08:002008-11-10T21:01:20.594-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_U8A8hru5O90/SRkRlY3GKDI/AAAAAAAAKSY/LKNyUEpW4_4/s1600-h/100_2165.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_U8A8hru5O90/SRkRlY3GKDI/AAAAAAAAKSY/LKNyUEpW4_4/s400/100_2165.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267260573212878898" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_U8A8hru5O90/SRkRlLqhZnI/AAAAAAAAKSQ/H2lASYbcBoo/s1600-h/100_2163.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_U8A8hru5O90/SRkRlLqhZnI/AAAAAAAAKSQ/H2lASYbcBoo/s400/100_2163.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267260569670477426" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_U8A8hru5O90/SRkRkgL8RlI/AAAAAAAAKSI/nof1vHeDclc/s1600-h/100_2158.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_U8A8hru5O90/SRkRkgL8RlI/AAAAAAAAKSI/nof1vHeDclc/s400/100_2158.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267260557999490642" /></a><br />I finally got spayed about a week ago, and I was really sleepy afterwards...but the next day I was my old self again. My foster mom is amazed at my ability to bounce back so quickly. I feel great, and have been busy playing catch with my other doggie pals at my foster home. Check out my newest pictures taken today!<br /><br />I am a really great dog, and would make a great addition to your family.

I can't believe I've been at my foster home for 3 months now! My foster mom says sorry for not posting new pictures of me, she has been very busy! She does have some new pics, and I must say, I look pretty darn cute.<br /><br />My greatest joy is to play with my new friends and then take a nice warm nap on the couch. Even though I'm the smallest, I beat them both in all our games. I love to sit outside in the grass and smell the fresh breezes. I'm the kind of dog that really enjoys the simple things in life, you can learn a lot from me!

My foster mom took some pictures of me in action, take a look...<br /><br />I am going to be spayed soon (what's that???), and have already started my heartworm and Frontline treatments. My foster mom says I am really smart because I have already learned to sit nice, come when called and go into my crate when she asks me. I just like the treats! I am also really good about going potty outside.<br /><br />My foster mom says that I would be a perfect dog for just about anybody. I would be great with kids, other dogs, and for people who have never had a dog before and would like one. I walk great on the leash and am very loving and affectionate.

I made it to my new foster home yesterday! At first I was a little confused about where I was, but then I met my foster mom's two other dogs, and got really excited. They welcomed me with warm dog kisses and made me feel right at home. We played and ran around outside for a couple hours, then I was so tired I fell asleep on a nice big comfy bed.<br /><br /><br /><br />I really like being in the house, but I'm getting used to house living...my foster mom says "NO!" to being on the counter...that's for people only!

In a few days I'm going to be free! <br /><br />I'm at a shelter in Kankakee, IL. Melanie is the very nice shelter worker here. Today she took me to what she called "The Spa" I look all pretty and smell good too!<br /><br />I heard her talking on the phone yesterday to the Foster Care Coordinator for IL Bird Dog Rescue. I heard "That is great! I'm so happy you are going to take Karisma!" <br /><br />That is great, but where am I going?! I heard talk of going to a foster home. OK with me, I'm not real sure what that is, but if humans are happy about it, so am I.<br /><br />This is what IBR knows about me so far, I came to the shelter as a stray,I'm always happy with my tail wagging, I know how to sit when asked, and I walk well on a leash. I'm kid friendly, I met some the other day and they fed me some hot dogs. Those were YUMMY!<br /><br />I am up to date on my shots and will be spayed before coming into the rescue. While in foster care I'll get a Micro Chip put in, that doesn't sound like any fun! But I'm told if I get out that will always help me find my way back home. <br /><br />So check back soon. I'm going to a foster home with two other dogs, no cats, but I can be cat tested. <br /><br />Happy Pointer Kisses,<br /><br />Karisma "Kari"<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/629455692982013598-9197366832113826822?l=ibrkarisma.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>IBR Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11233223795985479958noreply@blogger.com0
