... this

... with Mauwsie so she would dry up quicker... madam decided to fall into the swimmingpool.
Luckily my intuition Always tells me when there is something wrong with my rescues and I have learned to listen to that voice...so I turned round (was in the outdoorkitchen) and saw her on the side of the pool and just ran to here and got her out.
Every day she gets more mobile and everyday I have to take more measures to make the ranch puppyproof...
Those last 4 days we have had so much going on...please !!!!!

— looking for peace & tranquility at Whispering Ranch.

Some pictures from the rescue dogs of the ranch

Yep, she is Always watching, luckily she does start sleeping now... In the beginning she was alert 24h/24h...


What is wrong in this picture ?

So Mauwsie and Chey went to the neighbour and Boomer stayed inside with Tom and Gipsy;

Of course I had my camera on.

As I felt how Boomer was stressing I called home and asked the helper to open the house and let the dogs out...

When I came home everybody was ok but on the video I could see how Boomer had been howling for me.

We have some serious anxiety to treat here

Mauwsie on the other hand was having a good day today: see for your self

The horses liked this weather and wanted to go out and play, so Cuba decided to open the gate and take his mates with him

As it was wet outside it was a good moment to stay inside and get some work done.

And as it was cold and wet I decided to lit the open fire... for the 2nd time this year. I did not realize there was a big lighter lying close by... and yes I made a big mistake... about half an hour after lighting the fire, while all where sleeping in their sofa's and I was working on the pc there was a big bang that made everything tremble.
All the dogs jumped around and I could only grab my chest to see if I had been shot or what...

I had no idea of what had happened untill I saw the debriss of the firelighter.

It took me some time to calm Boomer down... he wanted me to torch him

Sometime later I heard noice at the house... well not only the dogs had a fright...the horses too and fences where pushed over by them

At 22.00 I could go out in the bad weather to bring the horses back to their paddock and make temporaly repairs.

What a day

I want to share the good, hoping others will take an example and do good too;

But I also promised 5 years ago when starting this blog is that I would say the good things and the bad...

Now little Mauwsie has been a little terror last night.

We went outside with all the dogs and she decided you could walk on the swimmingpol

I had no time to think, I just saw her walk on the summerplastic... 1 2 3 steps and then stopped, it moved under here and luckily she turned round and walk off it.

You can t imagine how my heartbeat was going... Owwwwwwwww  my MAUWSIE

Now that she finally is getting better, she is also a lot more active... a real pup with all the dangers !!! I need 2 more pairs of eyes !!!

Finally after being with us for almost 3 weeks I was allowed and able to do something with the puppy... WASH her !!!!!!!!
And finally I can hold her now without getting nausea from the bad smell she had on her...

Mommyyyyyy    !!!!!!!

5 YEARS ALREADY !!!

5 years ago, at this very minute I brought home 9 foals and yearlings from the hell in Catral (Murcia).

In the next few days I will post about each one of them:

If you want to read the start of the story in Dutch click right on 2009:

But I need to tell this story... if only already for Mauwsies future adopter: So...


Yes Mauwsie likes to hide, or no, I need to say it differently... Mauwsie can be so scared sometimes that she goes and hides.

This is not funny but SAD ! and just shows what she must have been living in those first few months of her life.

She hides in my house when she hears something she doesn't know or when she hears strange voices outside, but what she did yesterday scared the shit out of me:

So as I said in the other message, I went to the vet's yesterday.

First I brought Boomer in (he needed his monthly blood and urine check as he is suffering fron chronic renal failiure) and then went back to get Mauwsie out of the car: Mauwsie, Mauwsie, come on:

Mauwsie ?

MAUWSIE ????

The car was empty, she was not in the front at the foot of the passengers seat, not on my side either, and not in the back.

My pulse was going quicker and quicker:  HELP she dispappeared

This can t be, no it can't Eva , think !!! ...the car was locked, she could not get out.

Has she been stolen ? Oh no Mauwsie.... M A U W S I E E E E E

Front door open again, nothing. Back door open again... NOTHING !!!!

And then...then I saw her little face sticking out from under the furtest back seat with little scary eyes... no, no don't take me out of here, she said.

I tried to explain to her that we needed to go to the vet so he could take her pain away but she put her legs straight and refused to get from under the seat.

Can you imagine ? poor puppy. But she had to go, so I took her from under and brought her in the clinic

Yes I still like to hide now and again

So we went back to the vet, and yes that abscess is still playing up, so Juan had to open the wound a bit and press it out.

Yep Mauwsie wanted to bite him...but didn' t ... it was just a warning

Meanwhile at home she sleeps a lot in someone else bed... or parades outside in her green vest

As we want to be prepared Mauwsie got her Rabiesinjection and her chip. Yes the little girl has her passport now.

And to make up for that big needle and as it was getting quite cold at night Eva went to buy her a few things for going out on the evening and early morningwalks;

2 of them were too small though, so we will exchange them.

And as you can see, little missie is getting closer to other rescuedog Cheyenne
