		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today is my birthday. I am 7 yrs old today. 7 years! I was about 2 yrs old when I was rescued from Death Row at the pound. Just 2 yrs old and my life came very close to ending there. I was due to be put in the gas chamber that day. Miss Terrie came to get another dog and left with 3 of us. My sister was one and she went on to be adopted and lives in another city. I went to live with Miss Terrie but she had to move and she was sick so she turned me over to the rescue. I lived at the kennels for a few weeks and was very unhappy there. The adoption coordinator asked my parents to foster me because I had soooo meny personality problems, fear issues. I have been here for FIVE and a half years now. This is my home....I am never going to leave unless me or my parents die. I am still scared of people. I react by biteing. I KNOW, that is not good but I can't help it. It just happens and I pee when new people try to touch me too. I try not to do it but it just happens. Well all that does not matter to my parents or to ARF-LA. They say they love me and will always take care of me. I am happy, loved, safe, well cared for and that is all that matters. I love my parents and they love me. Mom is boiling chicken for me as my special birthday treat. That's better than a cake! Oh Ya it is. :)]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom and Dad took Hershey and Katie to the adoption store today and Hershey didn't come back with them. Hummmm another one adopted and I am still here. I see them come and go and some are young and cute and some are not so yung and not so cute if you ask me. They all seem to get adopted sooner or later except for me. I went to the adoption store a few times and it was fun but nobody chose me to adopt. I don't think I will ever get adopted. It's a good thing I like it here. Good thing I love my Mom & Dad. :-)]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Been a long time since I wrote in here. Nothing much has happened except friends going to their forever homes. They come and they get adopted but I'm still here with Heidi, Bella and Buddy. I guess my day will come. Mom says it will. 

I got in a fight with Dixie a while back. I don't like her cause she runs up in front of me when Mom comes around. I want to be first. I want kisses from Mom and she tries to take my place. I don't like Dixie.

Mom and Dad took me to Petsmart a couple of times. It was not so bad. I even let people touch me. I even let a little kid touch me and I didn't growl at her. Mom was so proud of me. Dad said I'm a good girl.
I still don't have my own home. I don't know why.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom and Day took me to Petsmart today for adoption day. Someone called and asked about me and Mom liked the man very much and he and his wife were just what Mom thought would be perfect for me. Mom gave me a bath, bought me a new pink collar and a pretty scarf with tiny pink roses on it. I did what they wanted me to do. I tried to be nice but I was so scared when people came close to me. Dad brought my crate in and I ran inside and hid from everyone. I only came out when I heard Mom's voice and peeked out to look for her. I even walked out once and went to her side. There were so many people and dogs there. I was scared. Lots of people looked at me and Mom and Dad talked to them about me. They kept telling the people that I am a good girl and sweet too. All the people smiled at me, some gave me pats on my head, but they adopted other dogs. All Mom and Dad's fellow rescue volunteers laughed and said "Rose has her home. It's your home too. She is your dog." I heard them talking about adopting me. I am just going to wait and see if they do it. It really doesn't matter cause I know they will not let me go away from them. They love me very much. Almost as much as I love them. They are my Mom and my Dad and this is my home.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ There are 7 of us now. Zee was such a bother to me that I don't miss him much. Maybe I'm just envious because he got a furever home and after over 2 yrs in foster care/rescue, I am still a foster girl. I often wonder if I will every have a family of my own.......... not here in this home. I wish I could stay here forever and Mom often says I probably will. She had someone ask about adopting me yesterday but she told them how very shy I am and that I need a quiet home. The people have 4 grandkids that come to stay and visit them. Oh My! I could not handle that. Mom said she was sorry and would help them find a dog suited to their life and home. Today she has been talking on the phone about the Doxies being adopted. I won't miss them either. They are snappy and boss me around. I feel sorry for them because they had a hard life but so did I and I'm not bossy. Well, I just stay to myself and don't make any trouble at all for Mom and Dad and I love them and I know they love me. That's enough for me.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I have been here almost a year. A foster home for almost a year? I don't think it's supposed to be like this. Mom said I would be here for  a few weeks and then go to my Furever Home. I don't know why nobody wants to adopt me. Mom says I am a wonderful girl. I never make trouble for her. She says I am almost invisable. She says someone will see how special I am and want me someday. Mom said I am going to have a party for my anniversary with hats and treats and fun games. Oh well...... Foster and Murray got adopted today and Katie too! Katie is shy but someone adopted her. Mom says if nobody adopts me she will keep me and take care of me and just keep on lovin me like she does now. That's not so bad. I love Mom and Dad. I like Buddy, Bella and Heidi too. They are here furever and we are like a family. My family! I have seen a lot of dogs come here and go on to their Furever Homes but I am still here. I hope they are all happy, I am. :)]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I heard mom say that Harry is going to his furever home tomorrow. Cagney left last week and the week before it was Carson who left. Seems like everyone is finding their own family except me. I am kind of sad about it. Mom says I am a sweet girl and my furever family will find me one day and I will leave her too. I don't know if that's every going to happen but I know I'm safe here. I know I am loved here and Mom and Dad show me they love me every day. I'm happy for Harry. He's a pup and pups need to be in their own home. The longer I am here the more I think this may be my furever home.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom has been talking to me about my weight. She says I have got to reduce. I am happy like I am. She is on this big kick. She says I have to loose weight because it's not healthy to be so fat. Rrrrrrrr She decided to take me walking. Now she knows I don't like to go for walks. She put that pink leash on me and we headed out. I walked past 2 houses. TWO! and that was enough for me. She kept walking and I layed down in the road and refused to move. She called and laughed and then she even fussed. I didn't move an inch. I made her pick me up and carry me home. hehehe I hate walks. The sun is too bright, I don't like birds and I'm tired. She said she is going to make me go again tomorrow. Oh Brother. This is not going to be fun. She said she is cutting back on my food too. Now that's not funny Mom.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom and Dad are taking me to adoption day at petsmart on Sundays again. I don't want to go there. I don't want to go anywhere. I am scared of people and strange dogs. I don't like the sounds I here there or the lights. I just can't make myself be friendly to any of them. Mom lets me have my crate there so I can crawl inside and just stay there when I am ready. She said that she was told I need to be out with others so I can get over my fears. I need to learn that nobody is going to hurt me and they are all my friends. I don't want to go. I don't want to find a Furever home. I want to stay here inside my house and my yard and with my friends and family. I wish she and Dad wouldn't make me go. Besides that, nobody wants me. Nobody understands me and my fears.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom and Dad took Pepper to PetSmart adoption day again. This time Pepper didn't come home with them. Mom said she got picked by some nice people with 2 kids. Mom said she is on a home trial for a week. If she stays the week then she will call that place home forever. Her Furever Home. They don't take me to adoption day anymore. I don't know for sure why. I know Mom said it makes me too scared to be there and she understands that I know what is going on and I am very unhappy to think of going to another new place. Besides I like it here just fine. I get along great with Bella. We play when I feel like it. Buddy is OK. He sleeps a lot. Heidi is kind of a pain. She always wants to play. I know she is still a puppy so I just walk around her and let her be silly. She's kind of cute and she has a bad leg so I feel sorry for her. Yep! I'm glad they don't take me to adoption day anymore. I'm happy for Pepper. Good for you Pepper. I hope you will be very happy with your family.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I started to use the pet door and I am doing pretty well with that now. I am still scared of one of the others maybe making the door hit me in my face. I do use it though. Mom and Dad are so darn proud of me. I got hugs and kisses when I did it and still do. I feel like this is my real home. I have my favorite place to sleep and I am very good for them. I am not one bit of trouble. I wonder if I will be able to have a family like this one one day? Maybe I'll just saty here. :) As long as I am quiet and stay out of everyone's way they may just forget I'm here. hehehe]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I still am a bit too scared of the pet door to use it all alone. Mom holds it open for me still. I had an accident by the door during the night. I went to the door but Mom and Dad were sleeping and I just couldn't hold it any longer. Mom didn't fuss at me. She said she understands I was trying to go out. I was embarrassed.
I like the cool weather. It feels so good to lay in the sun when it's cool out.
Pepper is gone! Mom said she is on a home trial. I did that and it was so scary for me. I hope she likes it more than I did. I wanted to come home. Maybe Pepper wants to come home now. I hope she likes it where she is. I kind of miss her but I want her to be happy too. Maybe she will come back home like I did. Maybe she wants to come home and be with us. Maybe she is happy in her new place.
Mom said Miss Stephanie took my and Heidi's pictures out of the adoptable book. That she said means we are not for adoption. Mom asked me if that was OK with me? I wagged my tail and gave her a kiss. Heidi never understood what being adopted means so she didn't understand what a realy big thing this is. Thank you Missy and Bradley for helping me find a home I love.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom is teaching me to use the pet door.I'm scared to go in and out alone so I wait for her to hold the door for me. I think I will give it a try soon but I'm not quite ready to go it alone yet.
It was cool today. Soon it will be cold and wet weather. Heidi doesn't know about winter. She never had to spend the night outside on a cold night like I have. I won't have to do that again. I will have a cozy warm bed every night from now on. It feels good to know that.
Daisy is gone. Mom said she is in her furever home with her owner. I'm happy for her even though she was not very nice to me and the others. I want her to be happy and safe.
Mom wanted me to sleep in the people bed with her and Dad last night. I didn't want to so I slept on the big doggie pillow bed. I like that bed a lot. It smells like cedar and is comfortable. Maybe one night when it's cold I will spend the night with her in the people bed. I'll think about it.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom spoils me and Dad calls me Princess. :) I am happy. The other dogs are all nice to me except Daisy who Mom keeps away from all of us. She's not a nice girl. I think a human was not nice to her or another dog maybe. So she thinks she has to be mean to everyone. Poor Daisy. I'd like to help her but I am very frightened of her so I stay away.
Today Mom had a fund raiser for ARF. They are working to get money to have some of the orphans heartworm treated so they can be healthy and live. Well my former foster Mom was there and Dad brought me over to visit her. She held me and hugged me and she cried. She told me she loves me and she is so glad I am happy now. Mom told me I was not nice cause I didn't kiss her or make a fuss over her. She said I should have shown her thanks for helping me before. I didn't mean to be unkind I just wanted her to see I am very happy now. I love my foster parents and foster brother and sisters. My home is a good one and I am loved and I don't want to ever leave it. Mom said she told her I was just being shy.....]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I got the call night before last from the lady who had Rose on a home trial. It was not working out because she was just too scared and hid most of the time. The lady said she was so scared that she had to pick her up to take her out and that was just too much for an elderly person. I agree and so yesterday morning I picked Rose up. She was so happy to see me that I thought her tail would fall off from wagging. Her mouth was open and I saw her smile at me! It broke my heart to see how happy she was and I think it will be too hard for me to ever give her over to someone else again UNLESS there is a major change in her. When we got home she looked all around her with total curiousity as I carried her inside. I put her down and I have never before seen her like she was at that moment. She took off and ran from room to room checking every corner and crate in the dog room. She was needing to see that her home is all here as she had left it I guess. She was so excited she jumped on Fred's recliner and smelled it from top to bottom. Then she ran and jumped on the sofa and ran from one end of the curve to the other and down on the floor again. She check the kitchen for the water bowl and food bowl. She checked the bedrooms and bathrooms. I let Bella and Buddy inside and they greeted each other smelling end to end and tails wagging furiously, ears straight up. It broke my heart to see how happy she was to be home. I spent much of yesterday holding her and just giving her lots of love and attention. She is home. Rose is home and very happy.  Welcome home sweet little Rosy. :)]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Rose continued to be more comfortable here each day. She didn't like having to share her time with us between the other dogs in the evenings, but she had no choice. She is such a sweet dog she just took her place.
Took her to PetSmart today for the 3rd time. It was a special day. Blossom was there too! Rose and her mother seemed happy to see each other but not overly happy. I think they have become used to being apart. A lady who is 70 fell in love with her personality. She had a dog much like Rose who passed away some time back. She missed having a dog and she took Ros for a trial week. She has fenced in yard and a doggie door too. She lives alone so Rose will have her complete attention. She will be alone with her all day. :) This is what I wanted for Rose. Thank you God for sending this person to get Rose. I will miss her but she deserves a quiet, one person, no other dogs home.

NOTE; I spoke with Rose's adopter tonight. Said she hid under the dinning room table from the time she got home. She had to carry her out to potty and she had an accident in the house. She was not upset with Rose about it. She has gone in the room and talked to her every few minutes and just had wagged her tail and come out a little way from under the table. Poor Rose. She will be OK if the lady does not give up on her. She was scared of us too at first.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I am feeling more comfortable here in my new home. I come out of my crate and sleep on the big pillow bed and sometimes I go to the livingroom to see what is going on. I try to be friendly but I'm so scared. My foster Dad has been so nice and gentle with me. I let him pet me and I want to go to him when he asks me to but I am still too scared yet. I go kind of close then turn back. I do go to Mom. She puts me up onm the chair with her when she is on her computer and I like that very much. I feel safe and comfortable with her. I watch Heidi and Jasmine play. They are such silly pups. They don't know what life has been like for me. I have not had a easy life. I miss my Mom and I don't think I will ever see her again. Mom said I have to go to PetSmart with her and Doogie and Dad tomorrow. She said there may be a kind, good person who would want to take me home and love me for the rest of my life. That would mean I have to get used to yet another home and new people. If it would be the last time, I would be OK with that.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I don't know what is happening to me. This day has brought another change in my life. I was in an outdoor kennel with a lot of other dogs. It was hot and the mosquitoes hurt me when they bit. I was scared at night and in the day I just wanted to get cool. Then I was brought her. The lady is very nice to me. She speaks softly to me. She gave me a bath that I so needed. She cleaned my dirty ears. It felt so good. I smelled good and felt good when she was finished. She dried me with a big, fluffy, soft, pink towel.  I felt like a Princess. Next she brought me to the vet. He gave me a vaccination and tested me for worms and heart worms. I am fine and healthy but over weight he said. Then we came back here. The lady took me for a walk and she said I should call her Mom for now. She told me about Missy and Bradley and how she and "Dad" help little dogs find good loving homes. I like that and I am thinking maybe they can help me too. Life has not been good for me. She said she thinks I am very pretty and very sweet. She said she will be good to me and love me and take care of my needs. It's cool inside and my crate is big and my bed is soft and clean. The food is good and the water cool and fresh. I think this will be a good place for me and I will try not to be so scared. Maybe tomorrow I will play with the other dogs.]]></content:encoded>
