Angel




6-7-11

Angel came from a shelter up north a couple months ago and has been staying in a different foster home till now.
Shortly after we got her, we learned that she was confiscated from the same home that the Wonder Puppies came from when her owners were charged. A couple of the dogs that were removed from the home were deemed 'unadoptable' and euthanized at the shelter. :(
Angel was on the urgent list, and was lucky enough to get to go to Peg's house rather than her last days being scared and alone in the shelter.

She's timid, and has some fear issues, but she is oh so sweet. She's been at Peg's for a couple months, but it was decided that she would probably fit better at my house with our younger more active dogs. :)

We brought her home yesterday, and so far she's doing really well. She is a bit nervous meeting everyone new who comes in, but I think she'll start to settle in quickly.

There is a possibility that she could be the mother or aunt of Baby. We've always thought that Baby was from a different litter than the Wonder Puppies. She's SO different from them in so many ways.
Wouldn't it be nuts if Angel was her mom? Weirder things have happened. :)

UPDATE 7-15-11
Angel went to a different foster home while we went on our family reunion camping trip. She's doing well there, so they are keeping her as a foster rather than sending her back to us.
She's got some anxiety, and moving her back and forth isn't good for her, so this is will be best for her I think.
Hopefully she gets a forever home soon!

UPDATE:
Angel is ADOPTED!

Mason, Thor, and Honey

May 26-11

We got these 3 pups before their owner took them to the shelter. (And we got their Mama dog spayed, so NO MORE puppies for them!)

They are not quite 5 months old, absolutely GORGEOUS, and big!

Mason is the boisterous outgoing one, and the biggest of the bunch. He's such a sweet boy, loves everyone and everything. Look at the size of his FEET!!

Update: June 21, 2011
Mason went to HWAC with us, and was accepted there. He found a home in CA pretty quickly. Someone there is a lucky family to get such a great dog!







Thor is stunningly beautiful, with a personality to match. He's such a sweet boy, and SO smart.

UPDATE: 8-1-11
We had Thor a bit longer than the others. He is a bit shy, but so super sweet. We absolutely loved having him here. He loved the water, and was a source of constant entertainment for us. :)
He was adopted Saturday, and hopefully starting to settle in. They report that he's a little bit shy of the dad in the family, but we've talked about ways for them to work with his shyness and pull him out of his shell.






Honey is the little girl, smallest of the bunch. She's a little shy, but oh so sweet. She loves Wade. :) We're working on her social skills, and she's getting a little better every day. She's going to make someone a wonderful companion.

UPDATE 7-15-11
Honey went to a different foster home while we were on our family reunion vacation, and she was adopted while we were gone! LOL. Great new family who absolutely loves her. I love the updated pictures of her snuggled up with her little boy!



Emma




May 3, 2011

Emma is absolutely adorable. She's got kennel cough, so is being treated for that before she's available for adoption. She is 2 yrs old, and has got the sweetest personality. What a doll.

UPDATE: Emma is at a different foster home while she's being treated for kc, so we don't have to worry about the puppies catching it.



UPDATE 2:
June 8, 2011

Emma's kennel cough was gone, and her foster mom going out of town the end of May, so Emma came back to us.
She went to her first adoption event with us, and was the hit of the day, even though she wasn't adopted. What a sweetheart of a girl.



Before her next adoption event, a family called who had seen her online. They came and picked her up Saturday morning for a weekend sleepover. By Monday, they couldn't imagine life without her, and her adoption was finalized. YAY for Emma! When I went to their home to finish up the paperwork, she looked SO happy. What a perfect fit for her.
