Luke, our 13-year-old hospice GSP, recently reminded us that even senior pups can be sneaky... This time, Luke decided to eat a dish rag. Yes, you read that right.

His foster mom shared, “This particular rag was one Bence used to clean our Blackstone griddle after Sunday night’s cookout. It was in the laundry room, and we have no clue when Luke got to it. We’ve stopped leaving him in there because his escape skills kept leveling up — but apparently, he pulled off one last heist. Thankfully, he threw it up instead of ending up with a dangerous blockage. The photo in the closet plays to his sneakiness and selective hearing. I couldn’t find him one day and I was starting to panic because I had checked all his favorite spots, including our closet. However, he usually stays at the front of the closet… and since I didn’t see him, I moved on. After searching the whole house, I went back and turned on the closet light and there he was, in the back, in a perfect Luke sized space, blending right in with Bence’s shoes with the lights out.”

So, in addition to being a little mischievous, blind in the dark, rocking some selective hearing, and never far from your side like a true old man shadow… Luke is also a master rag thief.

But you know what? He’s happy — and that’s what matters most. After spending all 13 years of his life as an outdoor kennel hunting dog, Luke is finally enjoying retirement: cozy indoor living, a warm bed, plenty of love, and a second chance to just be a dog.

Life is good, and Luke deserves every bit of it. THANK YOU, Megan, and Bence!

Maisie, aka Pepper (SC, 11 months), was diagnosed with steroid-responsive meningitis and arthritis, but you’d never know it now — she’s thriving in foster care and loving life!

Her amazing foster family shared: "We thought we were bringing home a fragile pup, but Maisie has been anything but! She’s playful, energetic, and so full of life. She is house trained, having no accidents since day one. She's crate trained and knows some basic commands. We are working on leash training (she gets a 5k+ run/walk every morning) and getting her to use her inside voice (we aren't too successful with this last part). She's a cuddler and definitely a FOMO dog, never wanting to not be in the middle of all the action. Maisie is a sweet, loving GSP Puppy! And puppy she is! She's very inquisitive, energetic and vocal (especially when she wants to play and wrestle with our GSP Nola and Lab Grant). She is e-collar trained, very clever and smart. She is not afraid of loud noises and has a strong pointing instinct. She has been an easy foster to acclimate into our household, and we are enjoying every minute with her (mostly every minute, save for the puppy from the crypt voices she occasionally mutters).”

Huge thanks to Carla and Erik for fostering this sweet, sassy girl! Maisie is spayed and vaccinated, so she just needs a couple more months to recover from her condition before she’s ready to search for her forever home.

🌟 Foster Focus: Beth Davidson 🌟

Today’s Foster Focus shines on our longtime Florida volunteer, Beth Davidson! She was nominated by our Florida State Coordinator, Linda, who shared:

“She has been with rescue longer than me. In fact, she was the one who introduced me to rescue. She always responds and helps, especially when we need a special temp foster or transport—whatever is needed. She has fostered countless dogs and is also an adopter.”

And she’s not exaggerating! Since our database began in 2012, Beth has fostered an incredible TWENTY GSPs. Out of those, only 4 have been what we like to call “foster fails” (lucky pups 😊).

Beth, your dedication, kindness, and willingness to jump in wherever needed have made an immeasurable impact on rescue. From every dog you’ve fostered, every transport you’ve done, and every fellow volunteer you’ve inspired—thank you. We appreciate you more than you’ll ever know! 💚🐾

Dixie (the one in TN, 7 yo) continues to become more and more comfortable in foster care. Her foster mom, Lyndsay, says, “Dixie remains the sweetest little pixie GSP on the planet. She’s getting along well with her much bigger foster brother puppy and tolerating his nonsense while maintaining her position as queen of the farm. She comes when called and obeys the invisible fence like magic and is shaking and sitting and laying down for treats! Kennels perfectly every time and sleeps straight through the night like a little angel.”

We also heard that she’s learning to love affection and has even started pawing for attention, too, and greeting her foster mom when she arrives back home. She’d been a bit standoffish at first and we are excited for this progress!

Thank you for fostering this sweet girl Lyndsay.

In 2020 Cordele/Dale was found as a stray in GA and was in rough shape. But fast forward to today & he’s living his best life with the Day family!

“Buck is the name we chose for our 18 month old rescue back in June 2020. He continues to bring so much love, joy, and energy to our lives! We just love him so much.”

Thank you for loving him so much Lisa & Jeremy.

🐾 GSP Meet-Up in Gainesville, FL! 🐾

A huge thank you to Jim & Claudine Baker (pictured far right) for organizing a fantastic GSP meet-up in Gainesville! About 10 pups came together for a day of fun, play, and lots of tail wags. 🎉

We’re so proud that five of the dogs were SEGSP alumni! 💙 Jim & Claudine fostered four of them and helped place them in wonderful forever homes. They also adopted two very special girls themselves: Abby (adopted in 2016) and Marni, their first official “foster fail,” adopted in 2024.

Also pictured are SEGSP alumni Amy, Penny, and Charlie — all thriving in their forever families. 🐶✨

It’s heartwarming to see our alumni and their families enjoying life to the fullest. Thank you to everyone who came out and made it such a special day!

Moe, 4 yrs old in SC, is doing so well in her foster home! She’s an easy-going girl and has adjusted quickly to her new surroundings. We’ve had the occasional house-training accident here and there, but nothing out of the ordinary for a pup learning a new routine.

She and Brooks, her two-year-old GSP foster brother, love to play together (sometimes a little on the rough side!) and she gets along just fine with the other female dog in the home. Moe is also completely unfazed by the cats.

Because of her current exercise restrictions, we haven’t been doing leash walks yet, but we are focusing on house manners—she can be a bit of a jumper. Her temperament is truly fantastic: she has such a sweet nature, loves to nuzzle, and just wants to be close.

Moe will be heading to the vet next Thursday for her first heartworm treatment injection, and we’ll have her microchip inserted at the same time.

Kaiser (NC) joined us last week from the Berkeley County Animal Shelter. He’s about 3 years old, heartworm negative (yay!), but does have a knee injury. He’s already been seen by our vet and will be going back Monday for X-rays to determine if surgery will be needed. We’ll know more about his treatment plan next week.

A huge thank you to Ellen, Michelle, and Julia for helping transport this sweet boy—and an extra special thanks to Julia for fostering Kaiser through his rescue journey.

From Julia:

“He is such a sweetheart—total Velcro dog! He had a few potty accidents the first day, but he’s been doing great since then. He seems new to leash walking, and the harness has been key. He really is a wonderful dog!”

Stay tuned for more updates as Kaiser settles into rescue life!

Birdie (MS, 6 yo) is doing great! Her foster mom Brooke said, “She’s definitely 6 years young, she was so excited/jumpy/chewy that first week or so that I just knew she was going to be a troublemaker - but she proved me wrong and has settled in really well. She hasn’t 100% mastered the potty-training thing but she’s almost got it and is doing great otherwise with inside manners. She loves getting pets and attention and is definitely a cuddle bug. She’s on our heels anytime we move around the house but is getting more independent and using the doggy door to take herself outside. She’s very friendly with everyone and is just a happy go lucky girl. She is slightly chaotic on the stairs to our deck but working on slowing down and touching all the steps without parkouring off the top every time ha.”

Awesome Birdie – you’ve got this! She came from an AL shelter so who knows what her first 6 years of life was, but it definitely wasn’t as an inside family member. THANK YOU, Brooke and Lacey, for showing Birdie how awesome life can be.

It’s a happy day! Madison is now named Luci. CONGRATS Luci on finding your forever home! She has really started to settle in. She's already learned a ton and has relaxed a bit now that she's comfortable in her new routine. Her new brother is evening warming up to her! (we love the photo of them bonding).

A HUGE thank you to Luci’s foster mom Avril, who did so much for Luci and was very helpful to Luci’s new family while they all adjusted. We’re so happy for Luci and the entire Garner family!
