Naya - Leighs

Naya: She was going to be put down summer 2008, at 7 months because she had diarrhea. She was tested for Parvo Virus, she was thankfully negative. She was a beast of a dog, 80lbs and hip height. But she was such a sweet heart, she is the definition of a gentle giant, really one of the sweetest most submissive dogs we have ever met. Caroline knew right away her personality would work great with Leigh’s dog and her rabbit, she had tried out other dogs that did not work out. The next day Leigh (our exotic girl) came to see her, and she got along great with her picky (when it comes to friends) akitamix.  Leigh took her home, and she has never had another episode of diarrhea again. We have since found out that she is a huge hoover and will eat anything in sight. She has even eaten gloves leigh use to dye her hair with out the bathroom sink. Most recently, an ant trap. Which explains why she was probably sick a lot with the other owner. She continues to live hapily in her new home. 

Ringo - Carolines

Ringo: This little long hair chihuahua was going to be put down at a year and a half. He was devocalized three weeks prior and then became snappy with the other dog in the house. The previous owner became afraid that he would snap at the new puppy. We figured I would take him home and give him to an elderly lady who has no animals or children at home, he would be her baby. This little guy really won over his foster (Caroline - Founder) though, and they ended up keeping him. He lives Caroline, and her sisters and her dog Jazz, they are absolutely in love and inseparable. The only times he has ever seen him aggressive to another dog is when a German Shepard was playing to rough with Jazz at the dog park and she yelped. He then he chased the German Sheppard across the park nipping at his ankles. He actually probably got snappy with her other dog because he was protective of the new puppy. He has since proven himself and his gentle nature many times, and even under went a live dental (minor, no sever periodontal disease or extractions), a procedure that every dog goes under anesthesia for because otherwise it is practically impossible. He was a perfect little addition to our family's pack, and too much of a diamond to give up.
