AUTUMN IS COMING

Temperatures have dropped some. It’s the middle of September so autumn will officially begin soon.  Gwennie is posing for her pumpkin picture.  

Cinnamon and Pippi join in.  

Start sending Autumn pictures of your dogs who are ready, too.  Be sure to give their names. 🍂🍁🥮
 

MARLOWE—PLAYMATE?

 

Marlowe has done so well in his foster home.  He’s making good progress on house training.  He loves to be on things. Today it’s a chair.  Silly boy  

We were wondering if he would be a good playmate. 

He has played w Todd, his foster brother. 

His foster mom said he needs some help w other dogs. He can be great and he can also be bossy.  He’s a great boy. Affectionate and sweet.  

He might like to be the only one. 

Marlowe just had a grooming and he’s showing off.  Of course, as a table boy, he jumped on the coffee table for a picture.  We’re looking for a wonderful home for you sweet boy. 🏡

PHOEBE ADOPTED

Phoebe went to her foster home almost two months ago.  Her foster mom had just one dog but Phoebe let him know she was a new boss in town. 🤣  The Pekingese who had been there had all crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Phoebe brought the Pekingese presence back. 

She is 11 years old.  She loves toys and began to round them up. 

Phoebe loves her foster mom and she loves the grandkids, too.  When they come over, Phoebe is so excited!  She plays w gentleness and exuberance- both at the same time. 😍

It’s official.  She is staying there and she is resting easy.  Enjoy your new family sweet girl! 
 

A WEEK OF REMEMBERING

Most of you know that Toasty lives in New York (Brooklyn) now.   He isn't that far from the 9/11 site.   My granddaughter told me there were a lot of remembrance things going on.    

She sent me a picture of the Statue of Liberty from her running path.  

And this.  Brings chills as we remember.  

Toasty is becoming a New Yorker (4 more years of grad school) so he and his girl see it with new eyes.   So many changes in 25 years-- but we still remember. 

 

PERCY AND TULIP

Percy (Nicholas🎄) and Tulip (Tinsel) are thriving in their home. They went from hoarded dogs to pampered Pekes. I looked at a picture from early in their new life and now I can see a relaxing in their faces. 

Percy likes an occasional nap. 

Tulip is busy making sure the house is protected. 

They both get a lot of hugs.  They have come so far.  

Tulip is smaller than Percy.  She looks like a little princess here. 

As I follow and get updates on the Christmas rescue dogs, I still am amazed at all who stepped up to help.  Tinsel and all her siblings have changed lives because of rescue. ❤️
 

ZEKE—NURSE, GUARD DOG

Zeke has a new job.  His dad had surgery and is using a walker.  Helping his dad is his new job. 

Zeke loves his dad (he loves his mom too) so he remains close in case his dad needs help.  

His mom takes him out for now and guess what.  There was a deer there. 

The deer saw Zeke. Zeke saw the deer.  Zeke was barking and the deer was swinging his head and pawing the ground.  He wasn’t going to be bossed around by a little Pekingese!  🤣

Zeke said it’s easier helping his dad than trying to scare dangerous deer.  Maybe he can go in the front yard next time. 😉
 

HOLLY AND CODY HAVE A VISITOR

Holly is a beautiful girl.  She was in better shape than most of the Christmas pups. 

She and her brother Cody are good friends now.  At first Cody wasn’t too sure about her. 

Now they are best friends. Holly has become the sassy boss there.  SHE is now in charge. I love it!  🤣

They have a tiny cat visitor.  Cody and Holly are so good w her. All very calm. 

I’m surprised she didn’t curl up beside them.  Maybe she’s close by. 🥰
