Help needed for Zeke!!

Hi all,
I just heard from the ex. They are moving again and they're having difficulties finding temporary housing that will accept dogs.
She doesn't know what to do.

I told her I'd post on the board asking our members if someone could help.

She's looking for someone who could watch/care for Zeke temporarily until they find permanent dog-friendly housing.

Can anybody here help Zeke out?
He's a sweetheart of an OES and gets along extremely well with other dogs & kids.
Heck, alot of you know that as you've met him several times. And of course they would pay for all food & care.

I would take him in a second but my living arrangement just will not allow another dog in the house.

They're moving to the Harrisburg, PA area.

Again, this would only be a temporary situation. They would pay for all his food & care (I'd be willing to help out, too, as I want to make sure Zeke has a great life).
Can anyone here help?
It would mean a LOT to me if someone could.

You can either PM me or e-mail me at camval1@hotmail.com .

Thanks.

I hope someone can help!

Any idea what "temporary" means? (How long)
I asked that question about 2 months ago but she couldn't answer it back then.
I'm guessing she still can't.

If it were me, I would try to make the time period as short as possible. A few weeks to a month? Maybe a little longer?
Not terribly long.
That really sucks ...terrible situation to be in. I hope someone can help her/you ...........and Zeke!
Length of time would equal only a few weeks.
Where are they coming from? How far will they travel?
They are coming from Columbus, Ohio and going to the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania area. About 369 miles.
:crossed: :crossed: and paws crossed that someone can help Zeke-

I do have a friend in Pennsylvania and will make a call-
I thought you lived with family? Why can't he stay with you a couple weeks? Just puzzled....
Dawn,
Let me put it this way, I'm lucky I even have Brick.
He's really not welcomed here and another dog, even if just for a few weeks, is just not going to happen. Not my call unfortunately.

Karen,
Thank you!

Sorry to hear about your place. That stinks.

What's Shellie's screen name?
mark,
ya ready ? shellie
lol, i had to look it up. 8)
Hey! I just saw this post. So sorry I didn't catch it quicker.
I would love to help, but we are in the process of losing
our Tucker. His days are few and I just can't commit to anything
else right now. It is really hard for me to say no, especially when
I know you really need help but Tucker is my number
one priority. Even MY Zeke is playing second fiddle right now and
that too is killing me. I am SO sorry, I just can't.
Can you imagine two Zekes in my house?! I so wish I could do this.
Honestly I never thought Tucker would be here beyond Labor day, but
here he still is. Every day he's here and still not in pain, I am thankful.
I just have to see this through.
Again I am so so sorry I can't help.

Shellie
Shellie,
Thanks for responding. I appreciate it.
Sorry to hear about Tucker.

Do you of anyone else in the area that would be willing to temporarily foster Zeke for a few weeks?
I am not in touch with anyone with OES in my area
at all anymore. I can ask around, but my circle is quite
small. I'll pm you

Shellie
Mark--my friend is out of town--but received my message and texted that she would call me Monday when she returned home.
Thanks to all.
