Best Tricks: Being rescued from a high-kill shelter that gassed their dogs
Arrival Story: I adopted Honey from the rescue group HAPPE(http://www.happepets.org) when she was about 6-8 years old. Honey is exactly what I asked for- she is all love, all the time. She loves sleeping on her dog bed (OK, she'd prefer the couch, but she likes her dog bed) and chasing tennis balls thrown by her Dad. I suspect she's part cat from the way she stretches when she wakes up (front paws waaaay out, butt in the air) and her habit of napping in all the good sunbeams. She enjoys meeting new people on her walks and dreams of someday catching an elusive possum or squirrel. She snores. She thumps her tail when I sing to her or walk into the room. Being an older dog, she arrived with some interesting habits and unexplained fears. (Someone taught her to sit on her haunches and offer both front paws- I told her she didn't have to do that if she didn't want to and she eventually stopped.) She's afraid of thunderstorms and metal grates in sidewalks. She did turn out to have some health problems (arthritis and a possible food allergy) which took a while to sort out. Since her human father and I also have chronic illnesses, this is not a problem. What's frightening is how close she came to euthanasia. Thank you to Althea, who works at the shelter & begged Tracey to come and get her. Thank you to Tracey, who had several fosters and took Honey in anyway. Thank you to HAPPE, which rescues hundreds of dogs like Honey every year. Thank you to Honey, for introducing me to HAPPE (I've been a volunteer ever since) and for bringing more fur, slobber and love into my life.
Bio: I watch people flock to the puppies at the HAPPE adoption stands and see how much longer it takes to place the adult dogs. Please do consider adopting an older pet- they're housebroken (or very close), through the chewing-everything-in-sight stage, calmer and have tons of love to give.
I don't know how long I'll have Honey in my life (4 years so far!), but I'm very grateful she's here.

Mulligan, a mere 6 year old, unexpectedly arrived at the Bridge today. Mokey, Ben and I still had room to share on our cloud, but NO MORE! The rest of my still-living friends are hereby directed- there is no more room 0n our cloud- NADA. Once you have completed your rich, full life on earth, you may find a lovely cloud in my immediate celestial neighborhood. Do NOT rush to get here (hear me Brandy and Buffy?)
I'll be happy to welcome you at the appropriate time, but this piling-on is unseemly.
I realize that dogs arrive at the Bridge not by choice, but be careful out there- your families love you and I've got plenty of company already.

Mokey doesn't mind, and neither do I. Our cloud has memory foam, so we can sleep without disturbing each other.
Except for the occasional pillow fight, of course... This causes terrible blizzards on Earth, so we'll try to keep it down. (Sorry, Chicago- Mokey was snoring!)
