Avery is still in quarantine, but he is starting to realize that he is safe, and his happy puppy energy is coming out. 💕

Avery is here!

He walks on a leash. He’s house trained. He knows basic commands. He has the softest mouth and the sweetest eyes and just wants to quietly sit next to someone.

He has a five day quarantine and then get neutered, but right after that he’ll be available and looking for the perfect home.

Thank you, Susan, Amy, and Nikia!

Avery is headed to us tomorrow! He is a young adult, probably still growing, sweet, dog-friendly, and easy-going, but stressed in a crowded, high-kill shelter.

At about 100lbs, we’re guessing Standard Poodle X (maybe that X=wolfhound, but his head seems a little broad for that). Thoughts? What do you think Avery is?

Bubbles/Titan update: his new daddy describes him as the perfect dog. He is settling in well and loving his new life. Thank you, Scott and ABARS! 💕💕💕

Update: B-3 (It’s where his name landed up. Don’t ask me, I don’t make the rules) is the result of an unholy union between a Muppet and a windup toy. He is 5 pounds of blurry, constant motion, and is recovered from his neuter surgery. Now we’re working on the concept of house training. (wish me luck), and soon he will be ready for his dental cleaning/extractions.

It is with great sadness that I share the news of Rampage!!’s passing. He was ancient and infirmed when we pulled him from a high-kill shelter more than two years ago. Nikia Ellis and Myles fostered him and then chose to keep the decrepit little weirdo and indulge his every need. While I am saddened by his death, I am even more impressed by the love and devotion shown by my brothers and sisters in rescue.

B-cubed is stoned but doing well. 💕

Buster Belvedere Buttons (a.k.a. B-cubed) was my pint-sized copilot today. Tomorrow is his neuter surgery. Send good thoughts.

Buster/Belvedere/Buttons has put on about a pound (20% + of his body weight), so I’ve moved him from four meals a day to three. I had him quarantined until this morning when he got to meet some of the Wolfhounds and the small dogs. Then I put him back in the heated sub-basement. This is the door that leads from there to the first floor of the house. Excuse its appearance: it’s 107-year-old house. Anyway, he’s coming along really well and is super sweet and personable. That is the actual speed at which his tail wags when he’s happy, which is pretty much all the time.
