Sierra – ADOPTED!

Posted Nov 26, 2015 at 9:53 am in Latest News

SierraADOPTED!! Sierra is being fostered in Lewisville, TX.  We’d like to introduce Sierra!  Sierra is a beautiful chocolate tri-color rat terrier who is estimated to be about a year and a half old, and weighs just 11 pounds.  Sierra is trained to use a doggie door to go outside and potty, and her foster mom reports that she is very active and playful, and loves to play fetch!  She also likes to play tug-of-war with rope toys, and gets along great with the other two dogs in her foster home.  We don’t know how she is around cats, or young children.  She needs a little polishing when it comes to leash skills, and we are working on that.  This little girlee loves attention, and her favorite snacks are carrots, green beans and watermelon (just like a true Southern lady!)  For more photos of Sierra, click on her album:

Willow – ADOPTED!!

Willow 2ADOPTED!!  Willow is being fostered in Lebanon, CT.   Our vets think Willow is only a pup, at 8 or 9 months old.  She is a very sweet 10-pound girl who loves to play with her toys!  She’s not destructive with them at all.  Willow is energetic, as you would expect a very young dog  to be, but she also loves to cuddle.  She is coming along with her housebreaking, and is eager to learn.  She is crate trained, and sleeps in her crate willingly.  Willow would do well with a friendly dog as a housemate, and she loves running and playing with the other dog in her foster home.  So far, she is good with the cats in her foster home, as well.  We believe that older children would be fine, but because she is mouthly when playing, we wouldn’t recommend very young children.  We are working on her oral commands.  She walks well on a leash, and because she loves to run, we would love to see her find a home with an active person or family.  For more photos of Willow in her foster home, check her album often for updates: Click Here: 

 

Brayda – ADOPTED!!

DSCN0540ADOPTED!!  Brayda is a beautiful brindle and white girl who found herself in a shelter through no fault of her own.  She is about 2 to 3 years old, and weighs about 18 pounds.  She is an excellent watch dog, and will look for signs from you when a stranger enters the home.  Once told it’s okay, she will wag her tail to meet them.  She is crate trained and is housebroken with a doggie door.  If allowed, she loves to sleep at the foot of her foster dad’s bed or in a dog bed on the floor.  She is a busy girl, always checking out the back yard for pesky squirrels and other invaders!  Brayda loves to play with the other dogs in her foster home, and especially loves to play chase in the back yard.  She loves being outdoors!  Because she is active and loves being outside, we would prefer that her permanent home have a fenced back yard to keep her safe.  She is attentive without being needy, and doesn’t demand to be in your lap all the time.  Brayda would be a fantastic addition to an active family, and would not do well in a home that expected a couch potato dog. Brayda plays hard, so very small children would probably not be advised, we would be afraid she would accidently knock them over in her exuberance.  But if you like walking, jogging, or just watching her harass the squirrels in your back yard, this is the dog for you!  She loves to fetch a ball, but she will make you work to get it back.  Toys are her favorite thing in the world, besides ear scratches.  Check out her album often, as we will be adding more photos.
