New Family Member Search

Hi all, I hope your having a beautiful weekend. We have been busy looking for a new member for the family.
Here are some cuties that we have just fell in love with:


This is "Rhea". She is a Terrier mix.
How adorable is she?


This is "Boogles". She is a silky terrier/yorkie mix.


This is "Athena", she's also a Terrier. My husband has just fallen in love with terriers. They look like they have little goaties.


And this is our love... "Sprinkles".
He is a Havenese/Terrier mix. We just filled out an application for this little sweetie pie.

I am truly shocked by the amount of puppies and dogs out there that need a good home. The stories are just heartbreaking. If your looking for a pet, please think about adopting from your local shelter or pet adoption organization.

I have applied for so many dogs in the past 2 days, I'm forgetting which is which. The application process is a lot harder than it use to be, which is understandable. The application has to be approved first and then you will be able to meet the dog at your home for a home inspection. I have to make sure we find one that will be great with the kids.

Well, wish us luck.
Have a lovely Sunday.
Sincerely,
Melinda

  2. ES muy bueno que tengas a un perr@ en casa, te ayudará mucho a ti, en tu estado de ánimo y a tus hijos les hará mejores personas...
    yo tengo una bulldog francés, frenchy, pero fue comprada hace 3 años.
    Es maravillosa

  9. Oh my goodness Melinda! Those puppies are so stinkin' adorable!! Bless you for adopting a wonderful pet from a shelter to add to your family. My Mom works at the Mary Roberts pet adoption center here in Riverside and always has heart-breaking and heart-warming stories to tell. It truly is wonderful thing that you're doing.
    Looking forward to finding out which one you get!

  13. Oh my they are all too cute. You are so right, getting a rescue is the right thing to do. I guess they have to do the screening so that they don't end up in the wrong hands.
    The puppy you get will be one lucky little girl or boy!

  14. I am so happy that you decided to adopt! And not just walk to the closest pet store and "support" puppy mills. I am truly happy! I hope you find your perfect match!
