was dirty and matted, her ears were bitten raw by flies, and she was a sad sight. We shaved Bear down and
cleaned her up, took her to adoption days to play with kids, and brought her back to her old self again. In October,
she caught the eye of a young couple during an adoption day. Bear now lives with them, and her new best friend, a
little white Maltese.

friend as well.

Natasha (formerly Lily)
Natasha came to us from Bastrop starving and tired, having recently given birth to 7 puppies who became known as
the "Bastrop Bunch". She quickly recovered, and became a playful, sweet dog. She now lives in Austin with a young
couple and their two little girls. One of the girls was named Lily, so the they changed Lily the dog's name to Natasha.
She's a great dog and wonderful with the children. See 2002 for adoption stories about her puppies. Below is an
update from her adopted mom:
She's still the sweetest dog in the world. Our 2 1/2 year old loves Tasha and shows her affection the way two year olds
do bear hugs and ear tugs. Natasha isn't the least bit phased by Lily's rough play. She responds with kisses, which
sends Lily into giggling fits. When Natasha first came to us, she spent a lot of time inside. Now she's almost always
outside, except in the summer when she likes to come in to cool off. She usually has a lot of company out in the yard,
though. As well as having our two girls to play with, we take care of a little boy during the week. We will probably be
looking for a doggie companion for Natasha sometime in the next year. She's very social, and I know she'd love to
have a permanent canine sister. In the meantime, we arrange play dates and baby-sit our friends' dogs when we can.
It's hard to believe that Tasha was once half starved and afraid of people. She's now about 60 pounds (she actually
had to lose 5 pounds this last year!) and so friendly.

King (formerly Andrew) -
You could call King's family "repeat customers". King, was a joy to have around, and was adopted rather quickly. Raven, the
beautiful black shepherd came from us as well. She, King, and their other shepherd pal Queen make quite a striking group.

Tess and Jonah are Anatolian Shepherds, who were rescued outside Town Lake Animal Center. Jonah was adopted, and his new mommy became Tess'
foster mom. It wasn't long before Tess became a permanent family member, so she and Jonah will always be together.

to himself.
