Logan Berry, Blue Berry, and their new kitten

Cody was adopted

THIS IS NICK AND KNACK THEY WERE SEPARATED FROM THEIR MOM TOO YOUNG AND HAD TO BE BOTTLE FED. IT WAS A VERY BUMPY ROAD FOR THESE TWO AT FIRST. IF NOT FOR THE EXCELLENT CARE THEY RECEIVED BY THEIR FOSTER MOM THEY WOULD NOT HAVE MADE IT.THEY HAVE SINCE BEEN ADOPTED. SEE THEIR NEW FAMILY BELOW. IN THIS PHOTO THEY ARE APPROXIMATELY 4 WEEKS OLD

"THE CREAMSICLES" WERE ADOPTED TOGETHER AS WE HAD HOPED! THEY WENT TO A FAMILY WITH A BOY AND GIRL. 7-10 #151 AND #152

"SALT AND PEPPER"
THEIR OWNERS MOVED TO FLORIDA AND DIDN'T WANT TO DRAG THE CATS ACROSS COUNTRY. THEY ASKED US TO TRY TO FIND HOMES FOR THEM. THEY GOT VERY LUCKY AND FOUND A GREAT HOME TOGETHER AT THE FAIRE 6-24 AT THE SHINGLETOWN MEDICAL CENTER. THEY ARE DOING GREAT! # 153 AND #154

BELLA IS OUR 49TH DOG ADOPTION SINCE JUNE OF 2008. SHE WAS ADOPTED BY A WONDERFUL COUPLE WHO ARE REALLY ENJOYING HER, THEY HAVE NOT HAD A DOG FOR A LONG TIME. SINCE THIS PHOTO SHE HAS ALSO HAD HER TEETH CLEANED. YEA!!!



KIP NOW KNOWN AS "JACK" WAS OUR 47TH DOG ADOPTION. HE IS DOING GREAT IN HIS NEW HOME. HE IS FULL OF ZIP AND FUN AND HAS BROUGHT ALOT OF ENERGY AND LOVE TO HIS NEW FAMILY.



"RAGS" AND AN ANOTHER DOG "BENJI" WERE FOUND ON BLACK BUTTE ROAD IN APRIL OF 2010. THEY WERE BOTH IN BAD CONDITION. THEY WERE COVERED IN FLEAS AND TICKS THE SIZE OF A DIME! NO COLLARS, NO TAGS , NO MICROCHIP. NO ONE EVER LOOKED FOR THEM AND BOTH WERE NOT NEUTERED. BOTH ALSO SHOWED SIGNS OF BEING ABUSED. RAGS WILL COWER ANYTIME YOU PICK UP SOMETHING . HE ALSO BIT ME BECAUSE HE WAS AFRAID OF ME REACHING INTO THE CAGE TO GET HIM THE FIRST TIME. SINCE COMING TO MY HOME HE HAS REALLY FIT IN WITH ALL THE OTHER ANIMALS. HE DOESN'T CHASE CATS, THAT'S THE BIG ONE. TOTALLY IGNORES MY FREE RANGE DUCKS AND CHICKENS, AND PLAYS ALL DAY WITH THE BIG DOGS. HE IS TYPICAL TERRIER WITH A BIG ATTITUDE. HE DOES NOT KNOW HE IS A LITTLE DOG. HE GOES HORSEBACK RIDING WITH ME AND STICKS CLOSE. HE'S ALSO SMALL ENOUGH IF HE GETS TOO TIRED HE CAN RIDE ON THE HORSE WITH ME. HE LOVES TO SWIM. WE GO ALMOST EVERY EVENING UP TO THE POND TO PLAY AND CHASE STICKS. NEEDLESS TO SAY HE IS STAYING PUT AS A PERMANENT DOG. THOSE COAL BLACK EYES JUST MELT ME. ADOPTION #46. HE'S A DONE DEAL.
