WE CALL HIM ''SCOUT'' Adopted!

What an awesome dog! Look close and you will notice he has black eyelashes on one eye and white lashes on the other eye! He might as well big a large breed and reminded us more of a lab or a husky in his temperament. But he is still that nice small and conveniently easy to transport size. Several people commented that he must have corgi and Chihuahua in his mix. He is an all American dog that is for sure. Loves fetch and tug of war while not being overly rambunctious nor destructive. In fact he was in his foster home this week surprisingly calm, completely non-destructive and even housebroken. Scout slept quietly through the night in a crate though he really loved a chance to share a snuggle under the covers.

Now we were informed Scout could be territorial and protect toys, food or his spot on the couch with a growl or a nip but we never witnessed any such incidences. We wonder if this was due to the fact that we already had dogs in the home when Scout arrived and therefore he was on their turf and claimed nothing as his own and retreated to another room with no fight when our dog growled at him or stole his chew toys back. So it is possible he is better adopted into a home where a dog already lives. The other thing we found with Scout is he loves men. Contrary to most foster dogs, this little guy choose the male in our family and followed him everywhere in and outdoors, wanted to go on car rides in his car and consistently picked his lap on the couch or in front of the computer. So he seems like a mans dog though he was sweet both with women and children also.

He walks well without pulling on the leash and loves a little run or romping with other dogs. He does have the habit of chewing on the leash when no one is looking so he needs his walker to keep his attention and distract him from this behavior using positive incentives like treats and praise. We as foster parents want to honestly tell any potential adopters that in just a few short days Scout quickly became our favorite foster pup yet!

So take a chance on this charming little boy and you will be rewarded by the best little buddy you could ever ask for. This dog is love on 4 legs and he really needs a forever home to prove it.

“ BETTY PIE ” Adopted!

My name is Betty Pie and I am a “sweetie pie”. I am basically a shy bundle of love on four legs but I desperately need a forever home to prove it. You see, I am timid in all the noise and confusion here and need a stable, consistent “mama” to care for me so I can return the favor with everlasting, unconditional companionship. I am one special girl and here are just a few reasons to pick me today:

I have the dear, calm tender-heart of a big dog in a conveniently compact and easily transportable size. I even know how to play fetch if you can find me a good small size tennis ball.

I am not a picky eater like some little dogs my foster mom has dealt with. I love baked sweet potatoes, green beans and steamed peas and took carrot juice and flax oil mixed into my dinner kibble.

I have a downy white coat that is easy to keep clean and doesn’t shed at all. I really just need my little under eyes wiped quickly with a damp cloth once a day. I also look great in dog shirts and am fun to dress up!

I am not hyper, not bouncing off the walls and was completely easy and non-destructive in the foster home I had for 5 days. I am almost listless and stand sometimes with a lost look on my face not knowing where to lie down and relax but I seemed happier toward the end of the week and just need time to come out of my shell.

I love to be in your arms and I have this precious, heart-breaking way of holding on to you with my grover-like arms in a clingy hug. In fact, whenever I am nervous or cry or whimper, all you have to do is pick me up and the warm embrace comforts me immediately.

I am very gentle with kids who love to pet me and I do sometimes react defensively with other dogs. I even remained calm and non-reactive to cats that approached me in an indoor home setting.

I love going with you on car rides and especially enjoy a rolled down window to put my nose to the breeze. I make great company tagging along for errands, going in with you if the store is dog friendly (most non-food places are these days) and waiting patiently curled on the car seat if I am not allowed in.

I am housebroken and my foster mom did not have to pick up after me as long as I was consistently taken out and watched until I relieved myself outdoors. Inside, being confined to the same room as the family was in, made it easy for me to show signs of needing to be let out.

Everywhere I go I put a smile on peoples faces because I remind them of a little lamb or a goat and I love to give licky kisses to whoever will let me. · I am super easy to please, really all I want is to be fed and held in your arms like a baby.

I enjoy a leisurely outdoor walk just be sure to fit me with an extra soft padded harness (like you can get at ‘Give a Dog a Bone on Kentucky street in Petaluma) because my neck seems to be sore as if I have been yanked too hard by a collar in my past. Do be patient because when walked too fast I cried and reared back a bit and was helped along by a treat dangled in front of me as a reward and to let me know not to be scared.

I had a bath this morning so I could be all spiffy and sweet-smelling and now I am all ready to go home with you for good!

"T I T O" Adopted!

Meet Tito! Tito is your new best pal in a super mini version. He is an unconditional little love bug in your world! He treasures being held and clings on to you with dear, tiny dog paws that need you so much. At maybe 9 yrs old, Tito is a puppy and an old guy all at once. He is the smallest dog we have ever fostered and though we were extremely careful in holding and transporting this delicate fellow, he proved surprisingly hardy. He kept up on walks with our other dog, running in the cutest way as fast as his mini legs could take him. He enjoyed many strolls at Howarth park and thoroughly enjoys the smells of any ground you set him upon. Tito was a good little eater, too. With us he hastily devoured plain baked chicken breast cut up with organic baby food carrots or green beans and a dab of ground flax seed or cod liver oil to keep him regular. He even liked steamed peas and squash and bites of soft pear once he saw our own dog eat it.
 

Tito was housebroken upon coming to us and was accident free his entire stay, given we were sure to take him out every time he woke from one of his constant naps. He was fine with being let out to relieve himself on his own in our small enclosed yard as well. At our home Tito slept the night quietly in a small soft, fleece lined carrier, but he liked even better to doze off nestled in the crook of a humans arm or with his head laying on your chest. We were informed that Tito has a bit of a hole in his skull, indeed he has a funny, quirky look to him with the tongue hanging out and all but he ultimately won us over with his endearingly sweet personality. He was in a nutshell just eager to please and content with little more than a cuddle. Apart from some occasional labored breathing and congestion he did not display any real health problems, on the contrary, he became quite robust. He would prance around trying to fend for himself with miniature reindeer-like qualities amongst the other dogs he met.
 

Tito was a great companion for running errands. He happily went on our laps for car rides which quickly lulled him to sleep. He was such a convenient, compact size, we could easily take him in most any store where we were shopping with no fuss. He is silent and calm when put in a little bag or doggie sling for carrying. He seems to be satisfied just to go along. All Tito really ever needed was a loving forever home and a tender human to gently care for his precious little self. We know someone will love this wee soul as much as we have and we thank you for it.
