Just add water 🥰
These very laid back 4 month old pups were dumped in one of our rural farmland areas and will soon the leaving to find their new homes, Thank you Brett for giving them time and love while in foster ❤️
Little Sugar Britches has come a long long way in a week..100% house trained, super hiker and is really trying so hard to become the smallest frisbee champion ever!!
The Pyrenees puppies, this sweet litter of 7 boys came from a horrible place, a horrible person and potentially horrible future. All that they look forward to now is a loving home. They are a bit timid, we’ve been working on that, very treat motivated. I cannot express how gentle this group is. Their first early experience with humans was not good so time and gentle patience is important. They are beautiful inside and out,
The staff and volunteers at Shultz will continue with their progress ❤️❤️
On there way to Shultz 💖💖
Update on Mommy Almond!!Almond had to have emergency surgery as she had Draining pyometria, she is doing well now and with Tammy and Clay.. if all goes well she’ll be coming to Shultz guest house soon. For anyone that thinks this is okay, come on over and meet Almond. She has 12 three week old puppies, she would rather be playing and living her best life, but here she is, bringing toys to them instead of her getting to play. She is sad and miserable, so I am committed to getting these 12 hungry,loud, demanding little rug rags on solid food to prepare for early weaning. In the meantime I give her plenty of attention, we go for a run every morning and evening. She is not locked in a kennel with them and can come and go at her whim. Many mama dogs don’t get anything near those perks yet I still feel bad that it’s not enough😩
My goal is to get this sweet girl back to being a happy carefree dog, as they all should be ❤️❤️
I saw this today, Thanks Becca Ross, says so much!!
It was my decision. ❤️
I knew what I was getting myself into.
Nobody made me, nobody put a gun to my head. I wanted it just like that. I knew I’d be tied down somehow. No more parties, no more vacations… care for them, feed them, walk them.
It doesn’t matter what the weather is or if I’m in the mood or not.
I promised them that as long as they were with me I will give them everything, take care of them and when they are sick I will take them to the doctor. That they are my babies. ❤️
I knew my purse would be tighter, my clothes covered in dog hair, and my stuff could be ruined, but that was my choice that I made.
Not saying it’s always been that way but it’s worth it.
I can never be mad at them.
The items can be replaced, carpet can be cleaned, my clothes can be washed.
What can’t be replaced, however, are those sparkling eyes that are so happy to see me when I come home that they fall over jumping on me. 🥰 It doesn’t matter if I’m gone for 5 mins or 5 hours. Their affection and unconditional love are irreplaceable. ❤️
The times that they hear me cry or feel my sadness they come poking me with their cold noses and licking me with their slobbery tongues. Always making me laugh and feel loved immediately. ❤️
You don’t even notice the years fly by. Eventually their faces turn grey, movement slows down, they no longer are able to jump when I get home but the excitement is still the same.❤️
Then one day the light starts to fade from their sparkling eyes, they stop going for long walks, and their days are spent laying next to me resting. We may have to go more often to the doctor. I may have to clean up accidents more often.
I wanted this when I decided to bring them into my life, I wanted childhood, youth and old age with all it’s beauties, happy moments and even the worst days with all it’s grudge.
There is not a single moment that I regret!!! I took charge of them w
First meal today! I thought they’d be a little curious about big kid food, NO hesitation they acted like a football team at a buffet.
8 of the cutest little puppies heading north today..
The B puppies are too cute!
Taken in by a caring loving couple, they have never known anything but love and kindness.
Valerie is one fast little girl..she would be great for agility training, all 8 lbs of her.
She would be the star of the class.
Every evening we do the same thing and she loves it!!❤️
Elizabeth’s puppies are a force , lol
Getting ready to go to my bigger kennel area. ❤️
This is another of the 4th of July pups Freedom! His foster sent me this and I think it’s safe to put in his bio, Good with cats! Freedom and Patriot will be on next transport and head to SGH.
