August/September Update

See how bad I am at blogging? Let's play catch-up. This is Spike. He is an owner surrender after being adopted out from OCFA in 2006. He is really sweet and deserves to be back into a home.


Popcorn speaks for herself. She is super cute, super sweet, and *hopefully* super desirable.


Josh. Kinda goofy, but really nice. Tried to jump up on me and hold himself there, like he was begging me not to leave. I hate when dogs do that, it makes me miserably sad. He is the type of dog that would REALLY appreciate a home.


Poor Gail is sick, you can see it in her eyes. She isn't eating, and just sleeps a lot. She needs someone to dedicate some TLC time to her. I don't know what the vet thinks is wrong with her, but she needs fluids badly.



Good news - someone is FINALLY adopting Honey! She will be going to her new home on Friday. It's about time, she's been in the shelter system/foster care for like 4 months. We are lucky that she is patient.

Next up, MOLLY. Yes, Molly is STILL IN THE SHELTER. Good grief. She has been there almost as long as Honey and she is really really going crazy. I'm slated to take her as soon as Honey is rehomed, so we will see how that goes. Hopefully she will be easy to train and someone will want her. I have a feeling that she will be destructive....Brian's favorite kind of fosters!

That's about it....please leave me a comment to know that I am not writing a brick wall. You can leave a comment that says "comment" and it would be real funny. Please....do it.

First Post: Look at Me Go!

"Know anyone looking to adopt a dog?"

My friends probably want to shoot me, they hear that so much. This is what it is for me, this is my passion. I save dogs. Not all dogs, but the dogs that end up in the shelter that I work with. I will put all the "adoptables" up here so you can ooh and aah about how cute they are and help me find good permanent homes for them.

This blog is for both me and the dogs, but it's really just a means to an end. Hopefully, the end will be happy for these dogs instead of sad. So I am going to feature my current foster dog and give her a post of her own. She deserves it.

Name: Tia

Age: 4 1/2 - 5 months

Weight: 21 pounds

Breed: mixed bag of everything/basset mix?

Vet Care: needs spayed, has had 1st of 3 puppy boosters

Married? Have kids? Single? Elderly? Live in an apartment? Live on a big farm? Tia is for you. Just trust me, she is the best foster I have ever had. I really mean that. I've had a lot of fosters, too. Trust me, adopt her.


I am going to the shelter in a couple of hours and I will probably come back with all kinds of photos to post of these dogs. Please think about taking a dog. My dogs were all rescued, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made.
