Still Need Homes for Three





I still have three girls looking for forever homes! They would love to have a yard to run around in and a family that will lavish love and attention on them. They all enjoy going for walks and are very playful. They are all current on their vaccinations and have all been spayed. I keep them on Iverheart Max or Heartgaurd Plus and K-9 Advantix every 30 days.




In this photo, Miss Floppy and Sissy are sitting for treats. Momma is in the background, she is camera shy.






Momma is a sweet and gentle girl, approximately 2 - 3 years old. She is leash trained and loves to go on long walks. She is very playful. She weighs 80 lbs and has a thick coat. She was a good mom to all of the pups, keeping them safe while living out in the woods. She has been indoor trained and rides in a car real good. She is an escape artist, so precautions will need to be taken.




Sissy is a shy girl. She definitely earned the name "Sissy" She is afraid of things she is unfamiliar with, that includes people. She will shy away and bark, but never gets mean or growls. Like the other members of her family, she is playful and enjoys balls. She is also a digger and digs holes to lay in. She loves attention and pushes the others out of the way so she can get brushed first. She is 1 yr old, weighs 75 lbs. She walks on a leash, but will pull. She has ridden in a car several times without any problem. She has always been outside, so will need to be trained to live indoors. Anyone interested in adopting her should come to visit several times to allow her to become familiar with them before taking her home.


Miss Floppy, like her mom, is a sweet gentle girl. She really loves to play and is usually the instigator of play. She will nip at me when I go into the pen to get me to play with her. She will be happiest if she has a playmate. She loves water. I have a small pool that I leave out in the pen and will put all of their toys in the pool. Miss Floppy is always the one that fishes them out. I take ice out to them on hot days and place it in their water and she will come up, plunge her nose into the water and stir the ice around. She will sometimes fish out a piece of ice, but it is usually Sissy that will eat it. Miss Floppy was born with a small hole in her heart, it does not require medication or surgery. However, she should be seen by a vet at least every 6 months so that they can monitor the mummer to ensure it is not getting worse. She is 1 yr old, weighs 70 lbs. Walks on a leash and has taken several trips in a car with no problem. She has always been outside and will need to be trained to live indoors.

Red's New Home






Red is still very happy in his new home with his new family and playmate! His new playmate's name is Giggles. They go on walks together. He has now become protector of the yard and Giggles.




They are planning on extending the yard, so he will have more room to run and a larger area to protect. His new family is very happy with him.

Poppa's New Home



Poppa is very happy in his new home. He has settled in nicely and loves his new family. His new family is very much in love with him as well. He has been doing very good and shows no more signs of anxiety!


He also has a new friend which he enjoys playing with. Her name is Tinkerbell. Poppa has become very attached to his new friend and forever family!

3 Still Available for Adoption

I have three female Husky/Malamute mix available for adoption. They are all on a monthly regiment of Iverheart and Advantix.







Sissy is very skittish. She is afraid of new people. She will require someone that can come out everyday to visit with her and allow her to get to know them. She loves attention and once she gets to know someone she will come up right away for some loving. She is almost 1 year old, weighs 78lbs, is current on all vaccinations, spayed and heart worm free. She walks on a leash, but will pull sometimes. She is ready to be adopted once she finds that special person that is willing to come get to know her.





Miss Floppy loves to play and will nip at you to get you to play with her. She is the instigator of all the games! She loves to be chased. She will want a playmate. She walks with her tail curled up over her back when she is happy. She is almost 1 year old, weighs 74 lbs, is current on all vaccinations and heart worm free. She is scheduled for spaying on 3/11/10. Miss Floppy has a heart mummer due to VSD and an aortic stenosis, which was a birth defect. This will require close monitoring by a vet every 6 months. She walks really good on a leash and will be available for adoption 3/23/10.



Momma is very camera shy, it is hard to get a good photo of her! Like Miss Floppy, she loves to play and has a gentle nature. She is indoor trained, rides good in a car and get along well with other dogs. She will want a playmate as well and she loves to go on long walks. She is about 2 years old, weighs 75 lbs, is current on all vaccinations and is scheduled for spaying on 3/11/10. She is heart worm positive and will be starting her heart worm treatments 3/24/10, if my finances will allow.

New Home for Pop


A wonderful family came to adopt Pop last week. It is a large family and he is their only "baby". They give him lots of love and enjoy playing with him.


They have been giving him time to get used to them, 4 adults, 4 children. Since he seems to be feeling more comfortable, they are ready to begin his heart worm treatments.


They really do love him alot and want to have him around a long time. I will update his progress and photos as I get them.

New Home for Red



Red went to his new home on February 21st. He really seemed to like the large backyard and his new playmate! She is a German shepherd, pit bull mix.




When I first unleashed Red, he pranced around the yard like an Arabian horse, head held high and tail curled up over his back.




His new owners have been taking him and his playmate out for walks and Red has taken his position as protector of the yard.




Although I really do miss him, I believe he is happy in his new home.

Rescue Efforts for Miss Floppy










Miss Floppy got her name when a large tick attached itself to her right ear when she was a pup. The ear flopped over from the weight of it. She was still living out in the woods and would not allow me to touch her so I could not remove it. By the time she was letting me pet her, the tick was gone. The ear took a while but it recovered and no longer flops over.




Her fur is not as long and thick as her brother's and her coat is whiter. She also walks with her tail curled over her back. She loves to play and will nip at me when I go into the pen to get me to play with her. She likes to play "can't get me" with her brother and sister.




She is not available for adoption at this time because she has a heart murmur which requires further evaluation. The vet feels that she was probably born with it. She has an appointment at the specialist next week for an ultrasound. If it is not life threatening, she can then be spayed and will be made available for adoption. The family that is interested in Red, is also interested in adopting her when she becomes available.
