Jessie has been in foster care for a few weeks now … and her mom is keeping a journal we just love. She’s still available for adoption and, as you can see, is going to make someone an amazing forever dog. She’s loving, patient, funny, laidback and sweet as all honey …
On Saturday, Whole Foods Market Buckhead tried something new and inventive and invited us out for an adoption event. They set us up in a high-profile spot for our dogs to meet and greet visitors as they entered and exited their busy location. Suffice it to say, it turned out fantastic!
If you weren’t able to make it to our June fundraiser and bid on the condos in Cabo San Lucas, here’s your chance to one-up both of those offers with a 7-night stay (September 20-27, 2014) in a Presidential Suite Condo at Hacienda del Mar.
Fostering a rescue dog is about much more than just taking a dog into your home. It’s about teaching a rescue dog how to live in a home. Some dogs’ situations are more challenging than others, especially the ones who have spent most of or their entire lives living outdoors–in the backyard or in breeding kennels. And then there are other dogs who just leap into your arms and are ready to adjust to and learn everything. Jessie is the latter.
Pippa came … with incredibly advanced heartworm disease. But then she conquered … with an incredible spirit. Now she’s brought two more beautiful girls into the pack.
Just a little fun with Nicki. He is actually a perfect gentleman, especially once he gets to know and trusts a person. Now that Rocket has been adopted, who knows what may be in store for our other fear-aggressive boy. Miracles DO happen.
Candy was an immediate hit when she arrived at rescue a few weeks ago. No surprise there, given what an affectionate little puddin’ pop she is! Everyone is always looking for “shorties,” and this little girl couldn’t be “shorter” (and sweeter) if she wanted to.
This may be the most amazing weekend ever! Fosters, fosters, adopters, adopters, everywhere … for us, at least. That meant 3-4 for other rescues’ 30-40. 😉 But we’ll take those small but huge victories.
We mentioned in an update last night that Rosie (now known as Ingrid) has found her forever home! Her mom, Annie Harris, picked her up from rescue a couple of weeks ago to foster her through spay/vetting and help us get her ready for adoption. She immediately hit it off with the family (including her two canine siblings) and the rest was history. Go, baby, go go!
