Joey finds a family!

Joey went to his trial home last Wednesday!! We will keep you posted, but our last darling black and white pup is officially away...

Paka (pka Junie)

Paka's adoption was finalized on the 13th!! We are so happy for this beautiful girl! She came to stay with us for a few days while she had her spay surgery, and it was a great chance to get to say "goodbye and goodluck" to Junie.

Joey is still looking for his Forever Family!

Sweet, smart Joey is still here waiting for his family to find him. He was the rescue director's favorite, and we really love him here, too.

He may be housebroken (no accidents in quite some time) and crate trained, fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped.

He is so smart and happy-- just a really sweet little guy. And as he grows older, he is beginning to look more like a lab mix than anything else.

He has been to Doggie PlayDay at Taurus Training twice now-- they all think he is a wonderful boy, too.

He may need some work on leash walking...

Ziggy (pka "Jonathan")

Ziggy is doing wonderful in his new home! Look at these great photos (and check out his album for more)!!!! Congratulations, Ziggy-- his family plans to make it official next weekend!

Jasper's ADOPTED!

Jasper has a really amazing family-- everything we could have hoped for including wonderful Rufus for a playmate. They made it official last night, so Jasper is the first of this litter to be adopted! Here are a few more photos. Good Luck, Jasper!

Dear Jade

Although we posted it in the timeline, we hadn't felt like posting the update about poor, sweet Jade yet. Our darling girl fell desperately ill on August 25th and had to be rushed to the emergency animal hospital where she was found to be critically ill, having trouble breathing, definitely suffering from a pneumonia of unknown source (though possibly from aspiration) in conjunction with an upper respiratory illness and a GI illness as well. The doctors were not able to tell us with certainty what caused it, but they felt certain it was not something that would effect the other puppies for various reasons. Jade was suffering without much hope of recovery and we elected to have her euthanized in my arms that morning.

She was Jason's favorite, and it was very difficult for us. But we wanted to let everyone know what happened.

Jasper!

Hooray for Jasper!!!! He is at his trial home as of Friday night and they have already sent these wonderful photos. We are so happy and excited for him-- keep your paws crossed!!

Junie returned from her vacation at the Rescue ranch with the director, who was smitten with our dainty girl. She has a bit of a doggy cold at the moment she will be staying home from the Meet & Greet tomorrow, but she should be as good as new in no time!

Today's Meet & Greet

Well, it was the last night all together last night!! Junie went home with our smitten Rescue Director today after the Meet & Greet for a trial at her home, and Jonathon will go to his new home (and wonderful family!) tomorrow. Yay, puppies!!! We are so happy for them and hope to find equally happy Forever Homes for the rest of them.

Last days all together?

We are very excited about some of the applications we have received on the puppies lately and we suddenly realize that this weekend we might need to start saying good-bye to some of the pups. These puppies have been a true joy... so fun and fluffy and easy going. We will definitely miss them, but we really want them to find their Forever Families now before they grow older and we are calling on all of our resources to help us.

They are over their colds and off of their medicines now. They have grown so much!!! (We will try to get some new weights this weekend.) We just can't wait to find out what the next chapter holds for each of them.

Puppy of the Day: Jade!

Darling little Jade (aka "Daddy's little girl") is our wonderful Puppy of the Day today. We really enjoyed having her out with us alone a bit-- she is such a curious pup! She knocked over a cup on the low coffee table while she was sniffing around it and was so surprised! but then also curious about the water that had spilled. In this little video she is attempting to catch flies. Cute, cute, cute girl!
