My Remarkable Adventures: the good, the bad, and the naughty... Bwaaa haaa- haaa!

WE DID IT! Levi and Uncle Buck are safe and sound!

A brief intro: Last December 2006 a great group of my pals here on Dogster and I helped to rescue 6 puppies in Kansas. Thing was none of us live in Kansas, yet with a lot of confused coordination and support from many of our pals we were able to orchestrate the rescue and rehoming of 6 girl puppies. Fast forward to this fall when we discovered one of the 2 missing brothers to the 6 pack was spotted in the shelter by one of our group members. This began a chain of events that led to the rescue of both their brother, Levi, and a beautiful GSD dog named Uncle Buck. Both probably would have been euthanized had we not been allowed to step in and save them.

=======================================

We did it! Both Levi and Uncle Buck are now safely out of the shelter and at home in Nebraska with one of our rescue group members. Two members of our Kansas Puppy Rescue team made the drive to Hutchinson today to pick up our precious cargo. We had already paid their adoption fees earlier in the week and Levi was neutered just a few days ago.

Both dogs were friendly and happy to be leaving the shelter. Levi is adorable and Uncle Buck shocked all of us at how truly beautiful he is. We'll be posting updates and new pictures in the coming days as we learn more about what these two guys are like.

You can see in the new photos on their Cutest Dog Ever Page that Levi has tiny front paws.... Just like his sisters! Their story is on the same page. We're as sure as can be that he is in fact their long lost brother.

We would like to thank the staff at the Hutchinson shelter for helping us to keep these two pups safe until we were able to arrange the transport to pick them up. We think they're great!

=======================================

ETA: Both Levi and Uncle Buck have been adopted into new loving homes! YAY! Levi went to live with one of his sisters in Ohio. Uncle Buck went to a German Shepherd dog rescue in Colorado. The nice people there helped him to find his new forever home and we just got word that he was adopted on Nov. 23, 2007! Happy endings for both pups!

Thank you to all who helped us make this happen. Thanks to those who drove to rescue and transport Levi and Buck, those who fostered them and those who donated to help fund the effort. We couldn't have done it without all of you pitching in to save their lives and make these adoptions possible!
