Happy Christmas from foster pup #70. - his first!
Foster house guest #70! Meet Luigi. Horrible back story, and I think he will be with us a while, but he’s had a good long sleep, discovered roast chicken (paws up to that) and is getting used to the quiet.

Buy this book! I don’t tend to by courtroom dramas but I’m so glad I did - this one is gripping!

And they’ve gone to their new home. All very quiet and tidy around here now - feel a bit lost! Short break before foster pup #70, whoever that might be ❤️
Wish us luck - the foster Twits have their first meeting with potential adopters this morning! After months with us it will be strange when they’ve gone, but they’ve come so far and I’m proud of them. (Image of two foster dogs being ruthlessly put through their behaviour training 😂)

Foster pups, Frankie and Millie, are really settled in and their personalities are shining through. Frankie (left) won’t learn that Millie will always get him into trouble and be nowhere to be seen when he’s found out 😂

Foster pups number 67 and 68. They haven’t lived in a house before but are settling in well. Quite the project on our hands!

Two new foster house guests arriving this weekend - they’ve never lived in a house before so will be a major project to get them ready for adoption 😩🐶
Lady Margarita has gone to her new family. I’m a bit lost but I suspect her paws haven’t touched the floor 🤞 On to foster dog #68 next

Your periodic reminder that "fancy fonts" on places like Bluesky are unicode & are a nightmare for screen reader users. DON'T use for your name
Not only that, good lucky having anyone search for you in the search bar by name.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
