Miss January aka Jan.
This pint size shepherd was returned to rescue after 6 months in a home exhibiting some behavior issues that weren't seen at rescue. Always a bit of an insecure and needy dog, her insecurities were at an all time high and she started getting snappy and described as random and unpredictable.

So we took her back with behavioral euthanasia as a possibility but first, we wanted to have her evaluated. What we observed was her insecurities at an all time high and unable to find calm. So Aloha Pet Services LLC. came to meet her and believes she is very workable. It's guessed Jan was allowed to be in charge and do whatever she wanted/coddled which is difficult not to do to a rescue dog that came in skin and bones. Within just a few minutes, she had her settled down and starting to relax.
So we have started her back on a very structured routine and the slat mill. As we build her confidence, we will work on her touch sensitivity.

At this time, we have tabled the behavioral euthanasia discussion as we see how Jan progresses. It's a talk we never like having but one that should always be considered for the safety and welfare of humans and canines alike. The goal is to get January into a less amped up and neurotic state.

What would be ideal is raising the $4000 to send her to a more intense board and train if possible to save her life and give her the chance at a forever family. But we know that is tough this time of year.

Day 2 for Bo on the mill. He knew right away what he was doing and tried to hop on himself. With a boost, he got to truckin.
For a bit there he was almost at a run but slowed down when I got the camera out of course. Still proud of this chunky boy. Every day I bet he builds confidence and stamina.

Bo's first time on the slat mill. He did SO good!
Every day he will get more confident while getting more healthy!

There's no doubt about it. Klienz is an incredibly handsome collie.

Klienz is very sweet. And he deserves a forever home!
He can be a bit quick with the treats so we recommend older children or a canine owner committed to training and preventing any accidents. Otherwise, Klienz is an awesome pup!!

Oh Finn!
You handsome fella you!
Finn came to rescue when his family moved to town from the country. After trying for months to place him and his sister in another home, they came to rescue. Bellah, his sister, has been adopted but Finn waits. Finn has adapted just fine to not being a running out on the farm dog. He loves his warm room and soft blankets. I think he would adapt to most environments.

Finn is a funny guy. He is very full of personality and charm. He knows his basic commands and is good with the other dogs and people he meets. Not so sure about those kitties though!

More info? Check out his album here under photos!

Bonnibel's turn in front of the paparazzi as she shows off her festive wear.

Bonni LOVES snacks and playing. She is a happy go lucky girl even though her face says "serious".
Bonni has had just one meet and greet and right away they said not because they could tell she wanted to play and their dog was not a social player. So don't be fooled by her serious faces.

Bonnibel is a ton of fun! She is also cute as can be.
