New faces


TJ has really blossomed the last couple of days. I moved him over with other dogs, just females at first, and then with the boys as well. He's fine. Very friendly, happy, and relaxed now that he's settled in with others. He hasn't jumped the dog yard fence and he crates without a problem too. He's really a nice, nice dog, and quite a handsome one too.




The new brindle boxer girl needs a name.  Her rescuer had been calling her Tiger, but I don't think that's really appropriate, apart from her markings, because she is a sweet little girl.  She came from my doggie dealer (shown below) last Friday, who saved her from the life of a trailer park dog. 

She came in the house last night and has quickly learned how do the stairs and the crate.  She whined a bit when left alone crated in the office last night, so Molly had to babysit. 

She met the gang of Trooper, Trooper Jr. (Buddy), Sunny, and Jeremey today without problem.  She's a pretty boxer girl, to the extent boxers can be called "pretty" anyway. 


Finally, there is Buck.  He is the only dog I had committed to take and I had put him off for several weeks due to space.  Buck impressed Linda and that impressed me.  He had obviously been some one's dog.  He was already neutered when he was found as a stray, but no one claimed him.  She pulled him so he didn't get put down.  He's a Great Pyrenees mix, we think possibly with some Border Collie.  He's got a BC's intelligent look.  He's well mannered, friendly, and good with other dogs. 

Buck needs a good brushing and I haven't gotten any good pics of him yet.  Fortunately he has the coat to make it as an outdoor dog for a while until I can find him a home.

Beautiful dogs, all deserving of the second chance you are giving them.
