Tuc (Oh Ya Tucker): 7/31 - Update



Just a quick update on me. I've been working on my manners and learning what no means. I love being outside on these nice evenings. I love having my coat brushed and ear rubs. I just love cuddling and will try to sit on your lap.

Tuc (Oh Ya Tucker): 7/27 - Lots of Love

Hi! My name is Tucker, and I'm a real lover. I like my ears scratched and my belly rubbed. I will cuddle with you and put my head on your shoulder if you let me. I would be your best friend. I love toys and carry them around with me.





Fonzi (Igotbigplans) 7/26 - Hi guys!

Heeeeeeeyyyyy! Greetings! Fonzi here! I'm straight off the track and learning how to dog! Foster mom says I'm a quick learner- I've got the hang of stairs already,  and I conquered those pesky hard floors. Yay me! 

I met the handsome dog in the mirror and I couldn't help but stare at him for 5 minutes- he's as handsome as I am! 


FoMa says I'm a sweet boy and I have the softest ears ever. It's intentional- I looooooove ear rubs. 

Well, enough about me. It's been a busy week and I'm off to nap.

Rusty (Rusty Nail): 7/24 - Namesake

Hello beautiful beings. 




Like my namesake, I am a fastener. I attach myself to my people and trust them with my big snuggly heart. 




So if you’re looking for a shy goofball who sticks to you like peanut butter and also looooooves to eat peanut butter, then I’m your guy!




I may be small, but I am a lovable piece of canine hardware.

Turbo (RF Turam): 7/14 - Did you say Ice Cream?

 Omigosh - something completely amazing happened to me this week (oh, yeah - it's your pal Turbo here... Hi!) and I just had to tell you about it. Have you ever heard of "Blueberry Ice Cream"? Well let me bark, I hadn't either. But then Uncle Chris and Auntie Kate took me on a super long walk to downtown here in Annapolis and I was hot so they said, "Let's take Turbo to the doggie ice cream shop."

Wait a doggone minute... There's a doggie ice cream shop?!?

Nom Nom Nom! Yummy!

I picked blueberry and gosh was it good. I ate a whole medium bowl. And it was delicious!

Also, I did really super good on my walk downtown with all the people and cars and other dogs and stuff. I'm such a good walker on the leash - I don't pull or anything, I just mosey along with you.

Here's one more shot of me chowing down on the doggie ice cream...

Can we come here again??

What an awesome day out! I hope maybe my Forever Family sees this and will know how much fun this would be to do again. 

Okay, that's it for now. See you again soon!

Love and Nose Bumps,
Turbo


Rusty (Rusty Nail): 7/9 - Peanut Butter!

Holy WOW guys!
🤩 Have you ever had peanut butter? 🤩 



It is the most amazingly sticky and delicious treat and I love it SO much! I get so excited about it that I do a little excited dance and then go into a comatose state of peanut butter zen afterwards (see photo evidence below).
When we hang out, I’ll share some of my nose leftovers with you, because I’m such a generous guy.
