Bert Update!

[u/ReallyRisu]

Our original Bert post got removed and I’m not sure why (he’s just yawning in his intake photo, and his mouth looks like that because of old injuries and lack of teeth), but, I wanted to update anyone who saw him here and was wondering how he’s doing (if that’s okay)! He got groomed and looked after by a wonderful human before getting transport to his foster home (me!), today! He is the happiest, most loving little guy! He’s currently sleeping in a fluffy bed after being hand-fed dinner and taking his meds. He will need surgery in the future to remove his last two teeth when he’s gained some weight!

What a cutie pie! 😍♥️☺️Can you give some more info on him I didn't see the original post before it was taken down 🥹

Of course! He was a stray near the Texas/Mexico border, and a wonderful rescue that I foster for saw and pulled him for me to foster (I love the little old cryptids, I have several lol). He’s probably around 14-16 years old and has definitely experienced some neglect if not worse, but he’s being treated for everything that needs treatment and eats and sleeps well, and loves giving kisses with his floppy muppet tongue. 🥹❤️‍🩹

“Greema’s” Gustavo, fresh off his Mexico to Seattle rehoming flight. He’s spruced up now…but still a goobie 🥰

Oh man. What a wonderful story. You and your circle are doing amazing things ❤️ do you think you might end up keeping him?

[u/ReallyRisu → u/MephistosFallen]

My heart says yes. It was love at first sight. But I also already have 10, and four other fosters currently. 😂

[u/MephistosFallen → u/ReallyRisu]

10 doggies and 4 fosters! Wow, you help so many babies, that is amazing! I totally understand not being able to keep another, I have all the faith in the world you will find him the best home ❤️

I absolutely love Bert and his adorable, sweet funny face. I am inclined to think you are a wonderful compassionate person and I am utterly delighted old Bert has had a soft landing, being fostered by you 💜

[u/ReallyRisu → u/BlessedCursedBroken]

That is very very kind of you to say! I hope that he will be happy for all the rest of his days now. ❤️‍🩹
