Ibanza

Hi Sherrie, Thank you for checking in on our sweet Scout (formerly Ibanza). We cannot imagine our lives without him, he's such a giant teddy bear and hands down the sweetest dog ever! He often tries to "talk" to us, I think that he believes he is human. It's so funny because he sounds like Scooby Doo when he does this. He has a big brother (golden retriever named Lucky), whom he LOVES to wrestle and play with- they are very close and I love that they have the same energy level. Scout also loves going out on walks with me and Jim and the kids. He's grown into a massive 110 pounds, but still loves to hop up on the couch with us and snuggle, which we love as well. It's just hard to put into words how amazing, sweet, cuddly, loving he is. If one of my kids is having a bad day, or something sad happened at school, it's almost like he can sense it and will go over and put his head on their lap and give them kisses. He's really sensitive and caring like that. We are so fortunate to have had the opportunity to adopt him- he's enriched our lives more than I could have ever imagined. Thank you so much!Take Care, Erin and Jim

Hi Sherrie, Sorry for the late reply, I was out town during the Labor day weekend. Pepsi is doing great at our home. She loves to play with our 15 month old daughter a lot. She always want to go out and play, and often play dead and refuse to go home when returned from walk. Here are some her recent photos. regards, Lufeng

Velma

Hi Sherrie! I can't believe it's been 6 months already - but it does also feel like Kiwi (formerly Velma) has been a part of our family for forever! Everything is going great with her, she's an energetic, happy and playful puppy. We love her to death! I don't really have any questions at this time, everything is going so well. So far she knows to sit, play fetch, and she knows that she has a certain spot that she goes "potty" in. Bath time is actually fun for her, and she loves to snuggle. I've got some pictures attached - I'm fortunate enough to work for a company that has "Dog Day Fridays" and Kiwi was able to come into the office with me and experience a day at work with mom! (Which mostly consisted of her making friends with the other dogs in the office, and taking naps in my lap). She loves her brother, Kermit and he loves her. They balance each other's energy out so well, and we're so grateful that they get along the way that they do. A true brother/sister relationship, and they cannot sleep unless they are right next to each other. She still loves to play with our socks, and we are constantly finding them around our apartment in places that she has hid them. Our apartment has a lot of geese outside all the time, and Kiwi has tried chasing them before, though they are much bigger than she is. Loves to go for walks, but sometimes halfway through she will just plop herself down and wait for you to carry her the rest of the way. She has a happy and playful personality and really has brought our family together. We're so thankful to have found her through T.A.R.A. Let me know if you need any additional updates! -Stephanie

Dryton

Hey! Beans is doing great. He is just the love of our life. He loves to sleep on his doggy bed with our beagle Lucy and he gets lots of exercise. We have been working on swimming this summer:). He goes to doggy daycare once a week because he loves playing. Here are a few pics!
