Gracie is Doing Great!
Gracie got spayed on 7/22/2010 & she is now doing great! Gracie is doing great after her surgery!
She also had her teeth cleaned & now has a terrific white smile! With a good diet and proper dental care, her teeth will stay nice & healthy too! Dogs need their teeth brushed on a regular basis and dental cleanings as needed, just as humans do.
After her surgery each time she went outside she’d lay down on the warm sidewalk in the backyard & sun her tummy! She loves doing that now & even did it today in the heat! Don’t worry, I didn’t let her stay outside very long in this terribly warm weather..only long enough to do her business!
Gracie gets grass stuck on her nose!
Gracie is also a very curious dog & loves to stick her nose into everything, both inside & outside of the house! Many times, things will stick to her nose such as grass, bird feather, and sand! She also likes to poke the back of people’s bare knees with her cold, wet nose!
Gracie–Always On The Go!
Gracie & Carl Sniffing the Air
Gracie is settling into foster home very quickly! She enjoys sniffing the air for interesting scents with her foster brother Carl, playing outside with him, and cuddling in his kennel with him. Gracie has a lot of energy packed into her little body & is always on the go, ready to explore anything & everything in the house! We have to keep a careful watch on her so that she doesn’t get into some mischief. Gracie is very good with the members of her foster family but is shy around strangers when they come to visit & we are working on getting her used to new people. Gracie will be spayed on 7/22/2010. (Please note that Carl is not available for adoption.)
Gus-good things come in small packages
Gus has adjusted well to life with his foster family. His personality is begining to shine. There is alot of fun and love packed into his pint sized body. He has claimed his favorite spot on the couch, has learned how to sit on command, and enjoys the daily dog biscuit left by the mailman. He is a very quiet and easy going guy. He absolutely adores bones, and will often carry two in his mouth at the same time, searching for the perfect place to hide them.
R.I.P Sweet Angel Callie
Dining out in Florida
Our condolences goes out to Callie’s family. Callie went to rainbow bridge July 4th. We don’t know what happened, though she died within 5 hours and in loving arms of Lisa. Callie was one of the “C” dogs that MSPMSR took in one year ago. Callie already found her humans when she was fostered by one of our wonderful volunteers. Who knew she was in her forever home at that time. She had one glorious year going on trips to Florida. If anyone has seen a puppy mill dog change before your eyes it is amazing. Callie did just that and never left Lisa’s side. When we picked up the “C” dogs, they were all scared, in need of grooming, flea bitten, and neglected. Never being out of cage, they all didn’t understand what was happening. Stairs, outside, doorways, and loud noises were very frightful. Soon, a tail wag, a bark, and enjoying to be touched by a human, was soon accepted and rather enjoyable. We have heard from every single family that their puppymill dog was their true heart-dog and the experience is priceless. All the dogs rescued that day were very lucky and it was an honor to know them all. Callie is gone, though her memories can not be taken from us. Run with our other angels Callie! We love you!
