Mick

Hello! I wanted to give you an update on Kaleb, formerly Mick. Kaleb is now 23 lbs, and is slightly taller than Chloe, our corgi. He knows a few commands, and is 100% housebroken. He is very, very good on leash walks. Doesn't pull at all (I'm still working on that with Chloe). He still loves to give wet, sloppy kisses, and he still loves the cow hooves. His absolute favorite thing to do is to run in the yard with the other dogs. He can fetch, and sometimes will if not distracted by Chloe or Bella. Pretty soon he will be taking his first camping trip in the Adirondacks. It is a real doggie vacation with trails to explore, sandy beach to dig in, and a shallow lake for learning how to swim. All our other dogs, past and present, have loved this trip. I think Kaleb will too! Kaleb was neutered on July 26th at Howes Cave Animal Hospital. Dr. Amber Atkinson performed the surgery. He is fine, and has recovered quickly. Didn't even need a cone. He is such a good, good little boy. Let me know if you or the rescue needs a copy of the neuter certificate. I will be happy to send it to you. The check I wrote for the deposit can be destroyed. I don't need it back. Hope you are enjoying your summer, Deb Kuhn

Peter Pan

Hi Sharon! I was literally just about to email you with an update. Jasper is doing very well! He now weighs 20.2 lbs and vet said to feed him 3 times a day. .... he has had his last booster and rabies shot. His face is almost all healed too (he had a second round of antibiotics). Here are some photos and videos of Mr. Handsome Pants! He send you all his puppy love with lots of hugs and kisses! uc

GRIZZLI

Good Morning Cindy, I wanted to give you an update... First, Grizz's new name is "Zulu" - I know, we went a completely different direction! Zulu means "Z" in the phonetic alphabet, the mariner signal flag for Zulu means "I require a tug" (which is true when it came to the leash the first day or so) and it's also Greenwich Mean Time of Zero. If you're always trying to reach balance, that would be zero. .... Zulu has been coming to the office with me! The spa room is so chill, that he lays in his kennel and sleeps through massage appointments! It's also given him an invaluable chance to encounter ALL kinds of different people and situations! He's such a good boy! Or as we say, "BRAVO ZULU!" (Which has a military/maritime meaning of "Mission accomplished, job well done ladies and gentlemen") Lastly, I've attached a video of playtime yesterday morning. He's very independent, in that he plays so well by himself. You were so right when you said he would be just fine on his own and not need another puppy around. Please let me know if there is anything you need from me, or other updates I can send in the future. Thank you again for the rescue work you do. You gave us the opportunity to bring the perfect little boy into our home, and we can't thank you enough! You have our gratitude, Liz, Lance & Zulu

POLAR

Cindy, Thanks ao much!!! Polar was showered with love yesterday. He met my daughter, her friend, my sister, her husband & two kids, my parents and a couple uncles. Basically, everyone was taking turns holding him & taking him out for potty breaks. He went from scared to cuddly, perky and affectionate very quickly. It was one of the best days in...I can’t remember how long. You are doing absolutely amazing work with these animals. It is just wonderful. I will send you pictures of Polar in his new home. Thank-you so much!!! Amy
