Sadie will be three on July 17th and we will all celebrate with a vanilla ice cream cake. When Sadie came to us she was a sad, terrified little Goldie at the young age of eleven months. It was so hard to see her yelp when you raised you hand to pat her. We assumed she thought that she was...

He was being fostered in Burlington at the time and although we were told by his foster parents he was a ‘counter surfer and had ‘some issues’, we had no idea of the extent of the trouble we were in for.

Manzana (Zana for short) has adjusted well into our home. She was shy and hesitant at first however over the past couple years she has become one of the family.

Howdy folks! I had my first birthday in my forever home. My gifts were hugs and kisses, an extra long walk, hugs and kisses, a new bone, hugs and kisses, lean beef in my meal, and more hugs and kisses. And just in case there have been any doubts, I am staying put! My human parents adore me, and in fact, that adoration is reciprocated. I have...
