I’m told it’s “Black Dog Day” and normally we sort of skip over the social media imposed whatever day, but black dogs being adopted less frequently is real. So lets give a shout out to our gorgeous black dog alumni and those of yours, our extended family. Post your black dog pics below and tell us why they’re awesome!

Never a dull moment and today was extra extra. This both summed up the day and capped it off. Hopefully my stonky little friend decided that a seemingly easy meal is not so simple or so safe with a pack of sighthounds and one scent hound on patrol. Happy ending, little gal or guy did make it out safely. Now accepting donations towards a pallet of tomato juice… 🦨😬🙈🦨😆

It was a busy summer and we forget to tell you Pamcakes the Duchess is adopted! Here. At Bluebird Lane. She likes it here. Says it’s relaxing and the occasional illicit chicken chasing is nice. We lost two dogs this year and the best way we could honor them was to give another a chance to be a beloved part of our family.

Carter is now home and in 136 miles I will be too. The last dog to go is always bittersweet. Enjoy your lifetime of love Carter. I’m glad you’re near and I’ll get to see your sweet face, complete with charming snaggle tooth, from time to time. Be well darling boy.

And then there was one. Carter helping with recycling at Claudia Presto’s before we get on the road for the last dayof transport, day 9. Carter was completly unfazed and enjoyed riding along, even if it involved shifting cardboard. 🤭

AVAILABLE: Prince looking princely at his foster home in Arizona. If you’ve sent in an application for him I’ll be reaching out tomorrow. Today is the final day of transport and then I’ll be home. It’s been a lot of miles, a lot of love, and new dreams for five lucky dogs!

We had a great day in Kanab with a house full of hounds, friends, and watching Carter and Prince (available for adoption) settle into a new life full of antics and joy. We also got to see SABL alumni Nico (formerly Talavante from El loco de los perros) who is just as charming as ever. A big thanks to Claudia Presto for hosting us.

And then there were two. Roma didn’t even look back as she walked off to her lifetime of love with her new dad, just how we like it. They’ll overnight here in Utah and finish the journey home to Colorado tomorrow. Thank youIbizan Hound Rescue for trustinh us with Roma and Galgo Rescue International Network for being our transport sponsor.

Have landed at LAX and am waiting on the dogs. The big boss and wonderful human who always, always makes sure we have porters to help get the dogs out is on it. Thank you Karen and team for taking such good care of us!

We're so excited to share our "LEAVE YOUR MARK" fundraiser with you! If you'd like to be a lasting part of the work we do bringing Galgos and Podencos to the US and a part of daily life at the Sanctuary at Bluebird Lane you can purchase a fence railing with your initials on it. For a donation of $25 we will brand your initials into a rail of southern fencing, for $50 we will brand your initials into a rail of western fencing, for $75 we will brand your initials into a rail of northern fencing, and for $100 we will brand your initials into a rail of eastern fencing. Check out the views below. If you make a donation to purchase a fence rail or two, please be sure to include in the notes the initials you would like on your rail.

I'm currently on the plane back from Spain with four Galgos and a Podenco and then we have some road time working our way back to WY meeting adopter families as we go over the next five days. When I'm home next week I'll post photos of each purchased railing as the initials are completed.

Thanks for LEAVING YOUR MARK on the magical sanctuary we call home, on our hearts, and the animals we help. It's a big endeavor and without your support it would be impossible to go the distance for animals in need.

We are getting ready to welcome 1 Spanish Podenco princess and four Galgos to the US on September 24. Transport to the Rocky Mountain west is a big endeavor, with many individuals working together to see these deserving hounds home. A big thanks to our partners in Spain Ibizan Hound Rescue, Mandy's Rescue Dogs, Fundación Benjamín Mehnert, and Protectora y Santuario Scooby, and also Galgo Rescue International Network for sponsoring this transport. They support so many groups bringing in Spanish dogs and have additional respurces to share. Sighthound rescue groups in need should reach out to inquire about GRIN’s “just one more” grant program. We are honored to have their help.
