Arrival Story: We're originally from NJ - bought an old farm in NC and were commuting back and forth to oversee the renovations. I noticed a pile of rags in the corner of the barn on one trip and when I went to check it out, it was 3 puppies (Tucker and 2 sibs). Tucker immediately came to see me, the others stayed in the corner. We found homes for them, and Tucker moved in with us.

I've Been On Dogster Since:
Mommy heard from Miss Dawn about our furriend Maggie - she said we wouldn't recognize her! She's grown back all of her hair and is absolutely gorgeous! Miss Dawn says she could have been adopted several times, but she ends up keeping her (Maggie already lives in the house with Miss Dawn), so it looks like she's got herself a great home.
The puppies left for New York this morning - Mommy was sad to see them go, but she is happy that she had a small part in saving them from being PTS and going on to have great lives with their new families.
Max is loving living at the farm. He stays outside during the day (cause Mommy keeps food out for him all day and she knows we'll try to steal it) and she brings him inside when she gets home from work. He's already staked out his spot in the bedroom (right next to Mommy's side of the bed), and he refuses to get up in the morning - he just wants to lay there and sleep. He's supposed to go to Miss Debbie's house next week, and go meet his new family from there. We hope they love him as much as we do!!
Mommy doesn't pay attention to us anymore! The puppy (now named McKinney) left yesterday for her new home and we were so happy because now we're back to just US! the PACK! the FAMILY! Mommy's all ours again, right? Wrong. SHe told us that someone dropped of an "old gentleman" at the shelter - she was really upset that someone could do that to a senior pup until she heard the story behind this guy - he had been rescued originally in Florida and when the family moved here, they had to go into a rental unit. THe landlord said "no dogs inside the house" so they bought a kennel and run for him and left him outside. He got depressed and refused to eat. His pawrents were so upset that they made Miss Lisa promise NOT to put him down, but to try and find him a home! WHo does Miss Lisa call? You got it. He's not here, but she's been going crazy contacting everyone she knows to find this old guy a new home. Know what? I think she did it - Miss Debbie from Pinehurst knows an 80-year old man who's wife is in a nursing home and who just lost his golden retriever and is desperately looking for a companion. This guy is the perfect match for the old gentleman. He's 9 years old and all he wants to do is lie down next to a person and be scratched and touched. I've gotta admit it - he is a handsome yellow labbie - I guess it wouldn't be too bad having him here for awhile - I'll let you know what happens!!!
Mommy brought Maggie to meet Miss Dawn this morning. Mommy said that she was great in the truck (whimpered a little bit until Mommy put her hand on her head, then she laid down and slept), and was ALL OVER Miss Dawn when she met her. Mommy's eyes got wet (AGAIN) and she hugged Miss Dawn and said "bless you" for giving Maggie a chance at a decent life. Miss Dawn said that now that she'd met Maggie in person, Maggie would not be put outside in the pens where the other rescues were --- she would join the pack in Miss Dawn's house! Isn't that pawesome????

PS - my fursis Maggie keeps biting me and telling me to make sure everypup knows that SHE wasn't the Maggie that went to a new home. She says she has NO intentions of leaving this one!
