My new rescue!..pic pg. 2

[sher9570]

We have a local pet connection here in our area and I get to see their activities on FB.
Back in early April I saw a 12 year old white Poodle, they called him Chep...more on this later.

Being in Florida I didn't think I'd have much luck adopting him but I was hopeful. After all he was 12 so there wouldn't be a lot of takers but having owned Poodles in the past I knew as long as he was healthy I could give him so very good retired years.

We got home from snow birding on May 4th so I contacted them as I had already sent in an app and wanted to know if I could meet him.

They told me I was approved and told me all about Chep and his medical which was really good, the only thing he needed was a dental so they gave him that.

They raved about what a good boy he was and how playful he was in his foster home.

So we set up a time for the home inspection and a meet and greet with our Lucy & Bubba for Friday.

Every one got along really well, they approved of our home and fencing so I signed the papers, gave them the check and am now a happy Momma to a 12 year old Poodle named Csepki (not Chep) I found this out in his papers.

He was raised in a loving home with an elderly lady who had a stroke and there were no family members that were able or willing to take him.

I'm wondering if Csepki is Polish maybe and what the meaning could be?
I will research it but I was hoping someone might know.

Well that's my story for the day, it's been a very happy weekend for all of us and Bubba & Csepki have been bonding nicely!

I would love to post pics but I had a terrible time with photobucket, all my pics are there and when I tried to access it I had all sorts of invasions from weird websites and have had a lot of trouble online today...I have a nice pic on FB but I will have to try something else.

Congrats on adopting a senior rescue - they're the BEST, aren't they?! Chepsky's adorable, and I'm glad I got you thinking about adopting a senior! :B I love the more mature dogs, especially when I know they still have several years of quality life ahead of them.

Chepsky's good, two syllables, and once it's in your head, it's easy to remember! Plus I don't have to open a new tab when I gotta write his name! ... :B

I see Pops was able to help, thanks!

I'm sorry Sher I had a busy evening yesterday. We had plans and before the game we had something unexpected come up.

He & Bubba are so cute together! I hope they are getting along well.

Thank You for adopting a senior and he is one very good looking dog.

Great looking family!

Very cute picture of your two dogs!

He answers to Chepsky, that's how I pronounce it, still have no idea what it stands for.
I want to sincerely thank Pops for posting the pic for me. I will be puter challenged until I get my issues with SONY resolved.

I have to say that I was inspired by xteacher to rescue this little guy, even though he doesn't come with the same issues as Sunny does, it certainly won't be like having one from a puppy.

He is very healthy so we are hoping for a long life like our last two poodles had at 17 & 18 years!

Aww, he looks like one of Mark's lambs! So what name does he answer to? I can imagine the vet trying to spell and/or pronounce that one. :W Your boys look great together.

[AZPops]

OK Folks, Heeeeeeere's Bubba and .... (one sec, gotta open a new tab, ....) ... Csepki! ... :B

Congratulations to you and the new "oldster". I love it when a pup gets to spend its last years as part of a wonderful family.
