Unpregnant in Taiwan: Poppy the dinosaur

I thought I would post some pics of our beautiful little furbaby.
Poppy was abandoned when she was 7months old, in a cage at a shelter. Within 6 hours she was with her first foster dad, who then passed her onto us. That was after we had been in Taiwan for less than 2 weeks!! At first we thought that fostering meant it was only for the short term, that soon she would have a permanent home to move to, but 4 months later, she is still with us, very much loved, very much spoilt and very much the cuddle princess!

We absolutely love her. She has brought alot of fun and smiles to us. But at the same time we are really worried for her future.
It is quite apparent that Taiwanese people are not the best petlovers.. Every day "old" and pre-loved pets are dumped at shelters while the "new" puppy is asleep in their handbag..
And we just don't want the same thing to happen to Poppy.

But we can't exactly keep her either. We are only planning to stay in Taiwan for maybe another year, and then putting our backpacks back on and heading to new horizons - not exactly feasible with a dog..

So the feelers are out - we are hoping to find her a loving home in either Japan or Australia, or of course Taiwan. Apparently from Taiwan it is only 1 month quarantine for dogs to enter Australia (as opposed to the usual 4!!). She has had all her shots and has been desexed, so if we find her a home, it's all go really.

BUT, until then, she is very much our little baby and we love her!

Enjoy her adorable-ness!
