Abigail has found a wonderful home and she even has a playmate! Her playmate is Crystal; a Sheltie/Aussie mix. Abby also has a young (teenage) girl with whom she can cuddle at night. Her yard is big green and secure. There is a huge deck from which she can take her naps under almost ancient oaks. Here's an update from her new mom: Abigail is doing great!! She and Crystal have been playing like crazy in the backyard and have fit in a few naps in between play time. She just settled in with Shelby in her bedroom. She is such a sweetheart. She is slowly getting use to the stairs. Shelby helped her up the first few times. It was so cute, she came down them so quickly that when she hit the wood floors she slid a few feet. We are doing great and we are so excited to have her home with us. You have done a fantastic job with her she is so good and well behaved. Thanks again for everything.

Andre and friend Maddie March, 2006

Andre (Formerly Charlie - Owen's brother) was in rescue for a long time. He was fearful of men and terrified to leave the yard. He was adopted by a lady who worked with him and made him into a much more confident dog. He now loves to ride in the car and go places.
i just wanted to keep in touch and let you know how Charlie (i actually renamed him Andre) is doing. He has come such a long way in the month I've had him! When i first took him out on walks, he would keep his tail between his legs and jump at the sound of any cars going by. Now he loves walks and has made a ton of friends at the dog park and with my roommate's Saint Bernard, Emma. He's also more comfortable in the car now - a little nervous, but the throwing up seems to have stopped (thankfully!). He just seems happy in general, very good-natured, and loves meeting my friends.
UPDATE March 28, 2006 - I just wanted to send you an update on Charlie (who was renamed Andre), who I adopted from you in September of 2004. He is doing wonderfully - he has really come into his own and is a much more confident and outgoing dog. He is still a sweetheart, though, and all of my friends are in love with him. He is in great health, and I can't imagine I ever lived without him. I hope you are doing well. I attached a picture of him with his friend, Maddie. He has this funny habit of raising his leg to have his belly rubbed, even if you are across the room from him.

Tahoe -(formerly Beige), was found on the streets of Pflugerville. Rescue was called and he was quickly scooped up, fixed and fed. He was adopted by a young professional family in Austin. He's enjoying being a companion to the oldest daughter, age 5, and lovin' having a yard and a playscape to share with her.
Here's what Tahoe's new folks have to say: Just wanted to give you a Tahoe update, things are going very well. He is eating a lot and gaining weight. He’s gotten much better on the leash and doesn’t try to run out the front door anymore (we are still careful though;). He has more energy now and likes to fetch balls, however he doesn’t bring them back we’re working on that. We bought a kennel but don’t use it much, he’s learned to stay out of Lori’s way and doesn’t give her much trouble when she’s with the kids. Zoe feeds him whatever she’s eating so they have become great pals although he still follows me around most of the time. We love him and he is a wonderful member of the family. Take Care, Paul & Lori

Dakota - Is a wonderful dog who gets along with everyone. He loves his doggy sister, Nina. As you can see, they both are living the life of luxury.

Dax - I just wanted to let you know that Dax is doing great. We went to the vets yesterday and got his shots and heartworm/flea medicine. He weighed in at 45 lbs and the vet thinks he will probably reach at least 90 before he's done growing. He is still a big ol' love bug and is hilarious when he gets to playing with his toys. He got on a puppy run the other day and ran all over the house, I almost couldn't stop laughing - which he thought was great fun! We have started taking long walks in the evening and he is doing excellent on the lease.
He does well staying in the back yard during the day, but has a hissy fit first thing when I leave - he has a very impressive howl. He really likes the Kong I got him and I also made some out of plastic containers and biscuits - he's very good at getting the lids off.
Update January, 2006: Dax brought with him his liking to chew up empty Ozarka bottles as you can see!
Also, one thing new that Dax had to get used to was living with our kitty cats. He has adjusted just fine. We love our Dax very much! We think he thinks he is a person........and he is so smart that we forget he is a dog and think he is a person too! He is a "PERFECT FIT" for us.
