Summary of week 1

Hello everyone, my name is Ella and l am the foster mother of Dusty and Phoenix.  I have been asked to add some photos of the boys progress from this week.

Dusty and Phoenix have been making amazing progress, but the road is still a long one ahead. Everyones donations and kind messages have helped so much, they are very blessed.

Below are a few photos showing their progress from their first week with us.  
Picture
Dusty loves keeping warm under our doona.
Picture
Both boys love catching some morning sun. I think it is really important to get the sun on their skin, then rug them up as the day cools down.
Picture
Although they are still very skinny, they are making amazing progress.
Picture
Resting is the best thing for both Dusty and Phoenix.

Phoenix also striking a pose.

This is a big step for Oscar and Phoenix. Oscar has been quite unsure about the boys, but has now decided that having a snuggle is ok. He even let Phoenix clean him.
Picture
They do sleep a lot, but every sleep is helping to gain strength and allow them to gain condition.
Picture
The boys have some lovely new collars.
Picture
Changing the sheets is always interesting when the boys decide they do not want to give up the doona.
Picture
Dusty found the spare bedroom...
Picture
Thank goodness you have clean sheets on the bed. We are exhausted.
Picture
Phoenix and Dusty have been so lucky with all the amazing coats that have been donated to them. They have been so warm and loved by you all. Phoenix is content enough, that even when l put his favourite treat in front of him, he doesn't feel like he has to inhale it.
Picture
Not even four treats will entice him.
Picture
Another big step happened today, the boys have started playing with some soft toys. I managed to get this pick before Dusty ran off with the toy and romped around the garden.

So very happy you found these boys in time.
I am wishing that they never had to experience what they went through but I am glad they have landed on their feet.
If I did not have my three girls, those two boys would be in curled at the end of my bed right now. Best wishes for the future.
