Moxie (nka Rocco)
App. 10 months old
Male/neutered/shots current
10 lbs/9" tall
We don't know what he is??

Could have some Pom or Chi in him, he is colored like a tortoiseshell cat...very unusual and striking small boy, his tail curls tightly over his back, which is not shown in the above picture.

Moxie is a sweetheart, he is very playful, energetic but not hyper...he loves playing with my Sheltie, who they are about the same size (my Sheltie is only 9" tall) he loves to cover you with kisses..he is very bright, inquisitive and eager... ...when you first met him, he may be barky and uneasy...if you give him 5 minutes to view you as a friend, he will be all over you...you just have to get past that initial first meeting...mainly his issue is being a bit scared, and if he gets upset, or too excited when you come home, he sometimes does submissive urination...which at his age, is not uncommon...it is easy to work with...he needs his confidence built...and in the right home, with unconditional love, this boy will blossom into a great great dog...
Rocco went to live with a wonderful family, who had just lost their dog suddenly, Rocco was able to replace that grieve with happiness...residing happily in Seattle, WA

Felix
Cocker/spaniel/Poodle??
App. 7 years old
Male/neutered/shots current
23 lbs/14" tall

One cold and rainy night, I was tied to a picnic bench outside of a restaurant on a busy highway. My bed, toys, food were beside me, with a note.."my name is Felix"..early the next morning I was discovered by the employee of the restaurant, I was in such a mess, terribly matted, ears so dirty, it took so many washing to finally clean them. But I showed her, and everyone I touched, that I am incredible, kind, loving, sweet, housetrained, and oh I love those cats, give me a kitty, and I will wash them for you...but even with her warm and kind heart, she had no room to take in yet another dog, so I am in the loving care of Furbaby...where they whisked me away, got my teeth cleaned, another power washing..and it is hard to believe that I would be left stranded, I am so sweet, won't you come and give me a home, I promise to adore you, give my barks of glee when you come home, just never abandon me again..
Felix is now living with a sweet older lady, who loves having him as her constant companion, residing in Bellingham, WA

What can you say about the sweetest peke, except that if you love this breed, she will totally steal your heart, she loves to sit in your lap, give kisses, she insists on sleeping with you, unless you want to hear her "woo woo's" of protest...she is a cuddler and a lover.

Buddy (nka Busby)
Cairn Terrier
Male/neutered/shots current
App. 9 years old

Cancer took Buddy's life, he brought such joy to his foster home, and his forever foster home, many tears were shed, when this precious soul, crossed the bridge, I want to thank Ginny for giving him the best time, with hiking, camping and exploring till God called him back...

I was tossed away, when a new puppy arrived, they said the puppy didn't like me, I gave them my life, and in return they took me to the vet to be put to sleep, why would they do that, I have so much life and love to still give...I am so kind, gentle and one of the nicest boys you would ever want to meet...I love to frolic in the yard, putting my nose to the ground and sniffing all that life has to offer...I cuddle in my bed at night, I am no trouble, I am so loving, and sweet...my hearing is a little dim..but that does not stop my heart from being full...we discovered that Busby had throat cancer, and we were all devastated, but a wonderful lady and her husband, who worked with Colonel Potter's Cairn Rescue, said Busby has a place in our home and hearts, for however long or short he has...thank you Ginny, residing happily with another Cairn in Yakima, WA

Mindy (nka Fendie)
Miniature Poodle
Female/spayed/shots current
App. 8 years old
10 lbs
*sadly Fendie crossed to the bridge, March 27/07*

I lost my family, my heart is breaking, I cry, asking my foster Mom, "please take me home to my Mom and Dad" , she does not answer, they told her, that they needed to move to a retirement home, that does not allow dogs, my foster Mom holds me, with tears slowly trickling down her cheek, because she does not have the answer, because she loves us all, she does not understand how a life has no meaning, she does not understand, that no matter what, our babies are part of our family, and that they would always remain with us, Mindy does not understand why she was not loved enough to belong...she sits in my arms crying for her parents, who turned away...she is a love, who wants to be loved...why was she not loved enough, foster Mom does not understand and I do not either...please open your heart, give me a home, and never leave me again....

Mindy had not seen a groomer in YEARS, her anal glands were impacted, my groomer who adores poodles, spent hours to restore her beauty...Mindy is a sweet girl, who wants to belong..she has an appointment with my vet, and will have her teeth cleaned, and hopefully will not find any other health issues...this girl has a great home, living with another of our rescue babies Dino, and their beautiful Shih/Poo, Gremlin, residing in Maple Valley, WA

Sammie doesn't hear very well but that doesn't keep him from finding you no matter where you go in the house. Sammie loves to wander in the yard and lie in the sun. He likes car rides and lots of naps. He is on medication for a slight heart murmur. Well someone did want to love this sweet older boy, he has a wonderful new Mom, living in Seattle, WA

Maltese
Female/spayed/shots current

How long has my discomfort and pain gone on for, my body encrusted in mats, so twined into my body, that I am left with sores, the toes and nails on one of my paws, is turning upwards, from not being able to walk properly in how long, months, years, at the very least one year, my body was crawling with hundreds of fleas, nests of them in my eyes, in my ears, the torture of being so infested, and not able to scratch, barely able to walk...my foster Mom and her friend/groomer worked close to 3 hours, to cut/shave/shear the mats twisted on my body, and through all of this, and sometimes painful, I licked their hand, I never cried out in dismay, I allowed them to clean me, I was bathed three times, the blood poured off of me, from the meal the fleas were dining on. When I was finally shaved and cleaned, I was put on the ground, I did not know how to walk normally, still hunching over, not realizing my body was free and clean...now I was taken to the vet, who spayed me, repaired a hernia, cleaned my teeth, bloodwork, and I am healthy, for the condition I was in, my skin is good, after all my medical, I am on antibiotics for slight infection...
I am just the sweetest little angel, who already has stolen everyone's heart, now I need a real home, who will NEVER allow this to happen again, soon I will have a beautiful coat, and I am beautiful, because my soul is...
Mary Anna, has two wonderful parents, who say she has quite the spirit, adored in Victoria, B.C. Canada

Note: I have been rescuing for 8 years now, I have seen puppymill dogs, shelter dogs, the worst of the worst, with fur in appalling conditions, Mary-Anna is one of the WORST I have encountered.
And this dog was an owner release....

You look at me and see a rare breed in rescue, but really I am just Farley, an easy going guy who wants to go to a great home and put an end to my travels in a peaceful setting with caring people and lots of love.

Dixie
Pug mix

She is housetrained, and a very pleasant girl to be around, she would love to have someone to dote on her..
