Rosie is pure joy and a great reminder of what a gift a Havanese can be. Before adopting Rosie, we had Juku and Miso (both Havanese), who were with us for many years. They passed from old age. Along with them, we took in Kiki, a Labradoodle who is now 5 years old. She was very close to them and had missed her friends over the last year. We had put a ton of thought into what kind of dog would be a good match for Kiki, then sweet Rosie came up. Watching their relationship grow has been such a joy. They are the best of friends. Rosie is always the first in line for cuddles, treats, and love but looks to have Kiki right at her side. Rosie and Kiki love to wrestle, run, play, and sleep next to each other. Initially, we were apprehensive about adopting, but Rosie has turned everything around. She is just perfect in our eyes! As hard as it must be to turn over a pet, it is wonderful that Havanese Rescue is there to help find loving homes for these special babies. We think about Rosie's changes over the last six months. Without Havanese Rescue, this transition could have been much more difficult. Rosie is silly, resilient, and will always be loved. We are forever grateful that we were able to adopt this wonderful girl!

We've just passed the 6-week mark with Raider (now Rider), and things are starting to settle. After encouraging us and answering our endless questions, HRI foster Stacy and her partner drove him nearly 500 miles to bring him to live with us. He was described as the easiest foster they had to date. In less than 6 months, Hot Ticket to Ride has changed homes twice, had several teeth pulled, had a heart murmur diagnosed, gone through a couple cancer surgeries, gained some weight back, and adapted to not being the only dog for the first time in his 13 years. Who says an old dog can't learn new tricks? He's somewhat hard of hearing, so we have been working out some hand signals to accompany commands, and we've delighted in his swan dives off the couch when playing fetch. He has some quirks, like he loves to check on whoever is in the shower, prefers to sleep touching some part of Kevin, and seems to have the longest tongue possible. Stacy warned us that he was quick, especially around food. On night two, I was eating a baked potato, and he sidled up, and then the next thing I knew, he had a sour cream mustache that quickly disappeared. Lesson learned! He loves meal times and daily walks nearly as much as his squeaky duck. He sounds like a squeaky duck when he barks like a sad cat when he can hear us outside. What started as an "oh, our dogs are so bonded, what will we do when one passes" project for me looking at Havanese and other rescue websites has turned into a more chaotic home life, especially when the doorbell rings, but we wouldn't have it any other way. Rider has brought us so much joy and amusement, and we hope he lives out the rest of his days feeling loved.
