Blue update
Blue is improving. Watching him now, it’s hard to believe how withdrawn he was just a few days ago. This evening, as Jesse took care of feeding and cleaning, Blue was fully engaged—watching intentionally, following instructions perfectly, and waiting patiently for his food. He even walked into his run without hesitation.
It’s incredible to see his intelligence. He's even showing interest in chasing a tennis ball, something he hadn’t done at all. These small but meaningful steps remind us how resilient and adaptable dogs can be when given patience and trust.
Our newest addition shows a pronounced interest in food, which plays a substantial role in trust development. His primary motivation is food. The hand-feeding process facilitates close interaction, fostering trust through gentle petting and allowing a fearful dog to view you as a source of food and comfort. Although he exhibits flinching behaviors around his head, I was able to caress his neck. Later, he responded with a few brief, affectionate licks.
AND THE WINNER IS....

When one adopted cat loves the new adopted cat immediately. It's a perfect match. Both adopted from our program. Smitty & Cecil. So happy they are best of friends.
I share my home with a wonderful co-pilot and canine companion. Although she was once considered unadoptable, she has grown into a devoted friend and sidekick. As a loyal companion, she is always by my side. We consistently afford dogs like her the benefit of the doubt, acknowledging that they are often misjudged.
The young mother who arrived yesterday has begun having her babies. We wish her all the best. We have one baby born so far!
One of our senior dogs out for a walk with Katie. She's a bit tubby. Gretta is looking for a forever retirement home.
Nice day for a walk! Thank you ❤️ Katie! She is a great member of our team. The dogs love her.

Cheers to this beautiful lady who takes Ginger out for a walk whenever she has time!! You are wonderful ❤️
