Update on Voodoo:
I've been asked to post an update on the situation. I sincerely apologize for being a bit lax on that lately, but things are just moving at a whirlwind pace.
-The rescues are all falling flat. They either a) have no room, b) won't take bullies/chows/pitties/etc., or c) won't take dogs with dog aggression.
-I'm trying to get a hold of the foster place that Zoom found so I can get details: how long can they keep them, is there a rescue/foster network over there that they know of that will take Voodoo, etc. Unfortunately, the lady I need to speak to is out until Monday. I'll try again then.
-We've worked out a system to keep the dogs seperated for now. It's not ideal for poor little Voodoo (he has to spend a lot of time outside), but it will buy us some time.
-Voodoo goes to the vet today to take the drain tube out of his chest wound (which is healing well). My wonderful vet and his entire staff are also working hard to find Voodoo a home. Maybe they'll have good news for us today.
-And this update is brand-new, as of lunch: We have a lead on a possible home for Voodoo! A friend of my hubby's, with a large house and land in the country, is interested in the little hellion. He's looking for a dog that would work well with his family and children indoors, but will also be a good watchdog--he keeps a collection of custom and classic vehicles on his property. I think Voodoo fits both aspects perfectly. There's only one catch. The guy has to "talk it over with the wife this weekend." So we'll see what happens. I would love for Voodoo to go to this home. A lot of land, a pack of children to play with, a job for him to do, and I would get to see him on occassion and hear updates---it would be wonderful.
Once again, I am absolutely overwhelmed by the support I'm getting. Can you believe this thread has gotten over 6,200 views?? :yikes: Chazzers, my vet's office, coworkers, family members....I didn't realize how many people have come to know and love Voodoo. I never knew my mischivous, troublesome, happy little hooligan touched so many people around the world. It still amazes me and just boggles my mind.
Thank you all so much.
