We Love You, BOY!

                               Some days you just need a HUG,

                                          some KINDNESS,
                              and to be told it's going to be okay.

                                          You are THANKFUL,

                               because that's when you realize...

                                          YOU ARE LOVED

Aunt Becky Comes to Visit!

I am blessed to have wonderful people in my life who come by and spend time with the rescued dogs I am fostering. It is important when dogs have not had a lot of human contact or are just generally unsocialized to meet as many kind people as possible. It is always interesting for me to hear their feed back on the dogs. Boy has met Becky before and he was elated to see her again for a play date that was all about him!



Boy is such a young 4 year old! He is bursting with happiness and would LOVE an owner who would play with him every day. He adores toys and carries them around like trophies.

Boy's New Old Friend, Redmond



Another of the dogs from the Nevada rescue has joined us for rehabilitation. He was the most timid of all the dogs rescued. He was so afraid he would flatten himself and refuse to walk. The people who were caring for him nicknamed him "Pancake." His name is Redmond. He is a very sweet, nearly two year old, Bullmastiff. He was not used to being handled much, prior to arriving here. I set him and Boy up in large crates in the same room Teala had been in with Boy. They are kept separate but have each other as company. I knew Boy would be a great influence on Redmond, because he has learned what human affection is and is quite demanding of it. Redmond needed to witness the JOY of "cuddle time" and realize that Boy had no fear. It took only a day or so of watching Boy get attention for Redmond to decide he should try allowing me to handle him.
By just being his happy, confident, loving self, Boy has taught Redmond so much. Redmond now protests when it is not his turn to go out or have cuddle time. Every day Redmond grows more confidant and can be touched not only by me but by my friends who visit to spend time with the rescues. Redmond will be going back to Arizona to live with a man who spent a lot of time with him when he was first rescued. He has never forgotten Redmond and has decided to give him a forever home. I know Redmond will have a wonderful life with his new family, because they understand what he has been through and are doing everything they can to prepare a safe place where he will be happy.

Snow Boy!






The snow, ice and power outage delayed Boy's neuter and cat testing. As you can see, Boy did not mind that one bit! He enjoyed many good romps in the snow!
