Oh I saw this boy going round Facebook and a plea for a rescue space. I knew straight away Lynne would have him

Thank you for saving the gorgeous Fudge, Lynne, and Sarah for giving him his much needed TLC. Love his upside down poses; he is sooooo cute xxxxxx for him
Re: Fudge Staffie x DofB 05.08.13 Oxted W/E Fostering
Fabulous pics Sarah. Fudge really looks like he loves his humans. A sweet loving boy who just wants someone to love him and be around him all the time. Gorgeous gorgeous boy. I love his feet in the air pics even with his big bandage he manages it xxxx

What a lovely kind boy Fudge seems to be despite everything. So much care now for him and a forever home soon.
Re: Fudge Staffie x DofB 05.08.13 Oxted W/E Fostering
He really is a lovely boy, very very loving
Fudge has had a tough time in kennels and today was my dog walking day so I was a little concerned that taking him with me would upset him, but bless, he stayed in the car and settled well as I walked the other dogs, didn't touch his poorly paws so a double good boy
Understandably Fudge isn't keen on other dogs too much at the moment but bless him, whilst he was out of the car we popped Bronx into the large crate covered by a sheet in the boot of my car for the trip to chessington and Fudge didn't realise he was there for the whole way !!! I didn't fancy my chances twice so Bronx travelled back to Gatwick later with Lynne ! But I was so pleased with Fudge
He's done so well today settling in the car as I've walked other dogs and photographed others too. I made sure he couldn't see all the goings on as that would have wound him up but safe and out of sight he wasn't concerned and settled down after watching me go off from his passenger seat window ! I got a lovely greeting every time I got back in the car, such a clean face after all those facewashes today !!!
Fudges's busy day with me in the car has meant he's a tired pup his evening ! Back for his dinner, he does a lovely sit before I pop his bowl on the floor Thoroughly enjoys every morsel of his dinner but eats well, not a gobbler ! No problem at all with me around his food/bowl, and enjoyed some natural yoghurt for pudd !!!
Fudge is totally house trianed
Very good boy overnight last night, slept on my bed and even left room for me ! Loved to cuddle up close This morning ... And this evening after we got home... Me covering up his modesty with my foot in the air obscuring the view of his recent neutering !!! More snuggles on the sofa Such a handsome boy, sweet as Fudge

Fudge is so good letting me touch his bandaged leg, we have an inside sock which stays dry and an outside sock which he wears outside with a plastic bag underneath (or a poo bag, they are so very versatile !) to keep the bandage dry - he understands he can't go outside until we've changed socks bless ! And more than happy to change again when we come inside
His other paw that I can see seems to be healing nicely and he's been very good at leaving it alone. Also takes his antibiotic tablets very well, in a chunk of nature diet and he takes it from me very nicely twice a day before his food. Such a good boy.
In the garden this morning ... Fudge would love to play ball more but I'm limiting his running because of his leg, don't want him to hurt himself but what a waggy tail when I held the ball ! Happy to come inside and rest Fudge is alert to noises, I have some temporary traffic lights outside my house which means more car noise, fudge listens and is alert to those sudden noises and the same for voices as people chat walking along the pavement - his head comes up and brow furrows, you can see him thinking ! But soon settles again, particularly with a stroke/cuddle to encourage him !

Inside again for snuggles "Er, what are you doing Sarah, I'd rather you were properly focused on me"!!! More sleepybyes, all good for Fudges recouperation
I was going to get up and do some jobs but if I do that will disturb his sleep and I so don't want to do that so here I am updating his thread again from my spot on the sofa !!!Some upside down shots from last night ! and curled up comfy on the dog cushion On my bed ... Looking after my towel after my shower this morning !!! More outside time... Inside again for snuggles "Er, what are you doing Sarah, I'd rather you were properly focused on me"!!!

Re: Fudge Staffie x DofB 05.08.13 Oxted W/E Fostering
Such a beautiful day I thought we should get some fresh air in the garden so I decided to weed one of the beds. Fudge put on his outdoor sock with plastic bag beneath and out we headed !
Fudge wasn't that impressed that I was weeding when I could be cuddling him !!! Fudge came and sat right be me on the step of the decking, bless, when he sits like this you realise just how skinny he is, he must have lost a fair bit of weight I think since finding himself homeless, we'll feed you up young man xxx "Are you sure I can't help you ?" Relaxing but keeping an eye on me !!! Next thing I know it's a hop skip and pounce on the tennis ball !!! I know he'd love to charge around with the ball but the splint/bandage makes that difficult and I worry Fudge will do some damage to his leg so we kept it very low key.
Then I fetched the rug for him to lie on ! Fudge sat at first, looking around and taking in the sounds and the smells, and then relaxed nicely Fudge likes to scruff up rugs/blankets to make a cocoon to lie in - it didn't quite work That's better !! And gardening done it was inside for dinner, your yum says Fudge !!! What a beauty xxx

Bless his little cottons, this is not for the squeamish, here's a close up of Fudge's recovering front right paw - the unbandaged one...
It's healing nicely and Fudge has left it alone which is a relief. His notes suggest the other one was much more severe, he is such a brave soldier
Happily snoring next to me on the bed now sweet dreams all x

Re: Fudge Staffie x DofB 05.08.13 Oxted Temp Fostering
What a super looking boy and lovely natured to boot! He's got youth on his side so hopefully will heal well soon. Good boy to leave his wounds alone. He looks very content with you Sarah. Great thread as usual.
