Adam now Koda!

He is great, we rename him KODA.  He is awesome, we are so lucky to have him.  It was great timing to get him being the whole family has been with him.  He has meet some of our other family members pets and he seems to have settled right in with playing and learning from an older dogs.  He seems so comfortable and loves all his new toys and chew bones.  We spend a lot of time outside with him and I think he would like it if we just lived outside.  We will fersure post photos after the New Year,

 

Thanks again!!

Emmett & Jasper!

Emmett and Jasper are doing well and adjusting quickly to their new surroundings.  They are so sweet!  Lily loves them and has done a great job of caring for them.  She scoops their litter box 4 times a day.  They have claimed our guest bedroom because it is connected to the family room so they can keep an eye on everyone and still sleep on the bed in the sun.  I have included a photo from Christmas when they arrived and another from a few minutes ago.  We are so happy to have them as a part of our family!

Thanks!

Aubrey!

We are delighted with Aubrey and she seems to be delighted with us.  She is getting along fairly well with our 3 smaller dogs but there will always be a few issues between them.  We have learned her mannerisms and when she needs to go out and when she doesn't.  She still has an occassional accident in the house but she is getting much better.

 

As advertised, she is playful and loving and loves to talk.  We take long walks in the woods each day and she enjoys this time outside.

 Thanks again for taking such good care of her at your facility.  She really is a wonderful dog and we feel fortunate to call her our own.  We love Aubrey very much!

 

Happy New Year and good luck with your adoptions.  You do great work.

Sawyer!

Sawyer is doing great.  He and our pit Riley get along so well; not a single tiff between the two of them.  He’s been an awesome boy and we don’t have to kennel him at all.  He sleeps inside at night and stays in the breezeway with a dog door to the fenced in yard during the day.  I’ve been working on his manners and obedience, and while there’s more work to do, he’s come a long way in only 1 week.  Our cat is finally starting to check him out (she wanted nothing to do with him until yesterday).  Sawyer loves to try to steal socks and our son’s stuffed animals.  He tries to be very discrete about it, but he gets busted every time!

Sawyer is definitely a part of our family, and we’re very happy to have him.  He’s such a nice mellow boy.

Thank you!!

Dexter!

It's been quite a while, but I wanted to keep you updated on my Dexter (your Buster) that I adopted in the spring.

Dexter has become quite the permanent fixture in our home and hearts.  He and Roxy the boxer have become the best of friends and.  We feel he has completely settled into the household and we are continuing to advance on his obedience training.  Walks down to the barn off leash and in a respectful heel position are common in the evenings.  He has a flying squirrel toy that we play catch with every day.  It's really quite scary how fast he learned how to "watch" the thrower, the sit/stay & wait for the throw/retrieve and how soft his mouth still is carrying it.  Dexter begs to be vacuumed (I am totally serious) with the hand attachment and loves the blow dryer in the morning.  He actually gets a little pesty about it now....  

It's been an adjustment to have young, energetic dogs in the house again, but I think we've stepped up and they've settled down for a very nice meet in the middle.   I know these two will never replace our other dogs, nor did we have that expectation, but they both are in their forever homes with us.  Dexter, with all his energy and persistence, is well-loved and I again want to thank you for taking him in, approving our application and adopting him to us.  I've attached some pictures for you guys to enjoy.

Happy Holidays!
