Here is another mix. They do out of area/state adoptions, and since it's a shelter, probably doesn't have the fence requirement. http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/24092780.

Everyone has been adopted (if you look on Petfinder, it say's adopted dog. :D) I haven't posted any updates because Edie's new family was having some issues with her. Just typical puppy stuff (mouthy, some what excitable, etc.). They had only had her 2 days, so I told them to give her time, and...

DH and I were in the Winston-Salem area today doing a home visit with Edith. They loved her, btw, and ended up adopting her. Yeah! Anyways, we went to Hanes Mall and there was a store called Fashion & Fun, selling purses, wallets, bags. And they had a Sheltie purse! On Sale! So of course I had...

Karen, Is the Humane Society rescue friendly? Here are a couple of area Sheltie rescues (when I say area, I mean within a 5 hr drive or so). Minnesota Sheltie rescue: Karen Marquardt klm@mnsheltierescue.org 612-616-7477 or 612-616-7477 http://www.mnsheltierescue.org/ This...

Smudge, I had to look at this, because, as a rescuer, I've NEVER heard of an organization that has cats and then wants you to release them. Then I looked at the link and saw you were talking about feral cats. Feral cats = wild cats. Most of the times, these cats can't be tamed (exceptions are...

I have a question about the dog park. Is it all one big area, or is it split up at all? I know the dog park I go to has one HUGE area with a gate so it can be split into two (still large areas), then there is a smaller area for little or reactive dogs? If it is split, can you take Lacey to the...

Ugh. Idiot dog owners. Waaayyy too many of them in this country for my taste. As for the marking issue, I've found that once males get neutered, the marking issue isn't nearly as much a problem and sometimes goes away completely. Of course my rescue/fostered males have never been more than 2-3...

Yet ANOTHER update Wanted to let you all know. Alice has been home with her new family for a couple of weeks, and they just LOVE her. Oscar and Ivan both have new homes. They will each have a little boy to play with. Ursula and Edith are still available. It's weird, Edith is DH's fav and...

Hey everyone, wanted to give a status update. Looks like Alice is going to be adopted. Our admin got her posted on Petfinder yesterday (we were closed Thur due to weather), and we received a call and email from an interested party. I had a long conversation with the potential adopter, we...

Alice is about a year old according to A.C. She weighs 16 pounds, and is a bit skinny, but not too bad. She should max out at 18 pounds.

Here's the link for the Rescue: http://www.ashehumanesociety.org/ The dogs should be added on Thursday (we're only open on Tues, Thur, Fri & Sat -- Sat is adoption day). We don't have an online adoption application. However, if anyone is interested, they can email or call (email is best)...

Judy, I had heard about this as well. This is the article I read about it: http://veterinarynews.dvm360.com/dvm/ArticleStandard/Article/detail/703785

I've started a new thread in Adoptable Shelties, with pictures. Just waiting on approval from a Mod. :razz:

We picked up Mama and the pups from A.C. yesterday. I decided to start a new thread, since they are adoptable. We took them to the vet and they seem pretty healthy. We guess them to be 5 - 6 weeks. They still try to nurse from Mama, but she's pretty dry. They're eating solid food really well...

I feed my boys, and my adult fosters, Fromm Gold. I was feeding Innova until it was bought out by P & G. I was going to keep with Innova, but my dogs started to have major tummy troubles (Ozzy even had blood in the stool). After numerous vet visits where nothing else could be found on either dog...
