Gideon and Berlin Adopted!

When we rescued Gideon, the vet advised us to put him down. He couldn't walk, couldn't even lift his head--and was covered in flies.

Now he is on four, long-term meds, and is doing amazingly well! We soon had him at a couple of adoption events, something we never thought would happen. To our utmost surprise, Gideon was walking around, standing for four hours and licking everyone's legs!

And guess what?

Gideon got adopted! And with Berlin, his "sister," no less! We couldn't be happier about it.

The first photos show Gideon when we first got him, and the last photo shows how good he looks a few weeks later.

We couldn't have done it without your donations! Thanks to all who donated for this sweet senior boy.

Oliver Adopted & Paul Mitchell Event Tomorrow!

Oliver, our long-coated rottie that we've had since February, got adopted today! His new family has a female rottie, and Ollie sure seemed pretty comfortable around her! So we're all happy for him!

Although, I have to confess, I teared up when they drove away ... I'll miss him. But he finally has his own family, so happiness for him sure outweighs any personal sadness on my part.

The first photo is a recent one, taken after he was shaved down. The second photo was taken awhile ago, when he had all his glorious fur! YEAH, OLLIE!

COME MEET US SUNDAY AT PAUL MITCHELL, THE SCHOOL. It should be so much fun! Vendors, such as dog walkers, obedience trainers, and many more, will be there! Plus there will be face painting for the kids, food, dog grooming, pet photos, a pet food and supplies drive, and FUN. Plus, there will be lots of terrific dogs looking for their forever homes.

Proceeds will benefit the OC Humane Society and Critters in Need Pet Rescue.

The Pet Day and Adoption Fair is September 20, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the corner of Harbor and Adams in Costa Mesa, CA.

Hope to see you there!

Woof!
