MARLOWE—LOVING BOY

Marlowe came into rescue when his owner could no longer care for him. 

He went to Winter's home for fostering.  

He loves tummy rubs.

And he loves people and attention.

Marlowe goes on walks with Todd and Winter.  He does enjoy walks.

He likes tables.  On chairs, under tables, or...

,,,, on top of tables.  Silly boy.  He's working on having house manners, so he wears a belly band.  (So do several at my house.  They're easy to use.)

Marlowe is 8 years old, and about 12 pounds.  He's had all his health updates and is ready to be adopted.   He would love to be an only dog if he could find that home.  He can be a little bossy.  

If you're interested in adopting, you must live in Maryland or Virginia or very close.

(Do this on a computer-- for some reason, applications done on cell phones do not come through.)

WINTER — HAPPY DAY

Winter is out for a walk w her brother Todd.  She paused to look back at her mom.  She was one of the Christmas pups and is now loved, secure and full of fun. 

She says HAPPY SUNDAY! 🌞
 

WELCOME AUGUST

Gwennie and I are welcoming August by sitting on the deck and enjoying the morning. 

It’s quiet. The birds are not chatting much. (At night, they have a symphony in the trees.).  

The deer have already had their early morning trek in the yard although we might still see some activity as they cut through the yard. 

The beginning of a new day and a new month.  HELLO AUGUST! 
 

PIPER -- FINDING HER SPOT

How can it be the last day of July already?   The summer is going by quickly.   Things at Camp Runamuck (my house) are busy.  Taking care of dogs and trying to decide where to hang pictures at our new home.  

Piper has been making herself at home at my house.    

We needed to buy a harness for her, so I made a basket car seat for her so she was all strapped in safely.  Without a harness, I couldn't put on her seat belt.   She settled right down and enjoyed the ride.  (An old Longaberger basket put to good use. LOL)

All the dogs know where their food bowl goes.  Piper and Paddington eat together.  Cinnamon has her spot, and Dickens goes right to his place. 

Gwennie is behind a small gate because she's fast and I don't want her trying to help the others finish.  🤣

Gweenie is all done-- LET ME OUT.   Be patient Gwennie.  She could easily push the gate open, but she's never tried.  

Piper is tiny at 8.8 pounds.  But she can be mighty.  Dickens tried to get close because he is fascinated with her.  She told him clearly that he was in her personal space.   What a funny episode!   She will be scheduled for spay and dental.  They are done separately, so she'll be with me awhile.   I'll keep updating everyone on how she's doing.  We're working on housetraining and she's learning to go outside.   She hops in the grass and will follow me around.   She's a sweetheart.  💜
 

BERKLEY’S NEW LIFE

Remember Berkeley?  He was the “peke” we got from a shelter.  He may have had a little peke but there was more of something else. lol. This month was his one year adoptaversary!

Berkeley has been accepted by one of the cats.  The other one keeps her distance. 

He has the most adorable face.  When he was in the shelter, he was terrified.  But now, he loves his life. 

He has so many toys and is picking one out. He’s “Peking” over the bed. 

He’s another small one w a big personality.  Happy adoptaversary!! ❤️. He was a lucky boy to find such a wonderful mom. 😍

PIPER GIRL

Piper Girl came into rescue on Sunday.  

She is little at 8.8 pounds and she doesn’t need to gain weight.  

She can make it up the stairs (but so little that I like to carry her up).

We visited Gigi, Granger and Tuk Tuk. She liked Gigi. 

She did great! 

It’s Tuk Tuk and Piper Girl.  Me and mini-me. 

At night, her bedroom is the big bathtub.  

She watched me and then settled down for the night. 💤

She runs and bounces. Adorable.  She will have a spay and dental before she will be available for adoption.  

Welcome to rescue sweet girl! 🌸

GWENNIE AND THE OPHTHALMOLOGIST

Gwennie has been to the ophthalmologist several times.  She has dry eye but we were also watching the inner part of her eyes. 

We tried drops and ointment but she was still squinting. 

Gwennie will have eye surgery on August 8. 

She may still need extra meds but we hope the surgery will fix her eyes.  

Everyone loved her there and she was so good.  Sweet girl. 😍
