Description:

We just adopted a rescue puppy....and I'm hosting this swap in his honor. Teddy was living under the floor boards of an abandoned trailer with 4 littermates and his mama. All the puppies have been adopted out to homes. They are still trying to catch the mama dog to loosen a broken chain that is gouging into her neck. She's afraid of people...so they are going to resort to a mild sedative to catch her. After a week in our care with good food, treats, toys to play with, a bath, a trip to the vet for a physical, shots and medications......Teddy is a very happy, healthy puppy. He's asleep under my chair as I'm typing this. :)

In his honor, I'm hosting this swap for a Pet toy and a bag of treats for our pets! Minimum spending on this swap is $10. The package must contain at least 1 toy and 1 package of treats, but feel free to include more to reach the $10, or just to give extra pampering to someone's fuzzy friend(s). :) Also include a letter with the package telling your partner about your pets! :)

Swappers must have a rating of at least 4.95 in order to participate in this swap. Sorry, but due to the cost of this swap, no unrated newbies. You must have at least 10 type 3 rated swaps to participate in this exchange. If you don't meet the guidelines, you will be removed. If you don't meet the requirements now, I will be posting other similar swaps in the future. Get some more ratings on your profile and join the next one! Swappers must have no 1 ratings in the past year, and no 3 ratings in the past 3 months. No unexplained or unresolved 1 or 3 ratings. Please DONT join this swap if you are not 100% sure that you can send a package to your partner ON TIME. If an emergency arises and you will be sending late, please notify me and your partner. Don't just disappear and flake! Receiving a package and then not sending one yourself is STEALING.

Note to flakers: if you flake on this swap, not only will bad karma follow you, but you will be listed as a flaker on the flakers group and you will be banned from any swap I post in the future. Plus....Teddy doesn't like flakers! Don't disappoint the puppy!!

Thats awesome you adopted a rescue dog. We have 2 rescue dogs, they were both older and have come with some baggage. I do rescue work and rehab with animals and can't wait to do this swap!

How cute!! Congrats on your new fur baby. All my animals are rescues. I currently have two chihuahuas. Lola is 4 pounds and she was being used and abused as a breeding dog at a puppy mill. When she turned 5 yrs old and had many litters, the guy dropped her off in front of the shelter I volunteer at along with a lot of other female purebreds aging 5 yrs old. She is now my little spoiled princess and follows me everywhere. Peewee is 8 pounds and he was found running in the streets. They were going to euthanize him because he was growling, but when I took him out, he is the sweetest little cuddlebug. He loves my whole family and loves to curl up with me. He's not fond of strangers though. Miracle was thrown out of a car in a park when she was not even 2 weeks old. Her leg was completely shattered. My grandpa and I found her (days later) by the tiniest little mew. She looked dead and was covered in maggots and bugs. I crawled into the bush and got her. I cleaned her up and gave her formula-she drank the entire bottle. The vet said she wouldn't survived much longer and they had to amputated the leg. The paper ran a story on the "miracle kitten" and people donated the money for the surgery and the vet did the other medical stuff for free. She's a happy fat cat now! Luna is my newest baby. He's a few months old. His wild cat mom abandoned him and his siblings in my friend's backyard. She was gone for days and the kittens were getting weak. Each girl at the shelter went and took one to adopt and foster. I took the smallest runt since I fell in love with him and I have the most experience with fostering kittens. The vet wasn't sure if he would survive. I woke up every 2 hrs to feed him and he definitely thinks I'm his mom. I have a video of him here actually: http://youtu.be/2modJLUPvu4 and here: http://youtu.be/3E4T2z5ez6c

Now he's a healthy cat who still loves to cuddle. Whew. well those are my babies! I know they'd love some treats and toys!

I've got four cats, well, three cats and one very needy kitten. (He's not needy-needy, but emotionally needy, he just requires a lot of attention.) But I'll explain that more in the letter. =D

I have an 11 years old pug. Her teeth are kind of bad, so please not 'too hard' snacks for her. She has rather something with a 'soft bite' :-) I also have a 4 years old black&white cat who loves to play games!

This is a GREAT swap, thanks JP!!

Teddy the rescue puppy is about 8 weeks old....the vet had to estimate because his history is unknown. He weighs about 9 pounds, and is (guessing of course) a black lab mix. The vet says he believes that Teddy is a lab/pyrenees mix, so he might be a very very big boy in a few months. He is teething and chewing on evvvverything. He loves toys that squeak, and fluffy stuffed animal toys that he can bite and shake. :) He is being trained with dog cookies as rewards, but he would love any sort of treats you choose for him.

I have 3 dogs, and 6 cats (2 are fosters). Morgan and Rudy are both adopted from shelters, Petey we got as a puppy. He's our player... he loves any toys that make noise. He doesn't care if they are rubber or full of polyfil (he loves poly fill). The other two love treats. The cats vary in age, and if you'd like to include treats we'd appreciate that.

Thank you for this swap!
