Jack (Misunderstood) - 2/28/2022 - Welcome to Me!

 Hello everyone!

I came in from retirement last week and settling in quite nicely. 

I love my new friends and we hit it off right from the start! 

Can you guess which one is me?  

Hint: I like yellow

I hear that I am very polite and very responsive to my name ... 

But I'm also very curious about all the things everywhere so every now and then my name turns into "Jack-Jack" and that gets my attention!

Apparently, I have been deemed a "counter surfer" which quickly became a hobby that I had to give up; oh-well, I still get treats and those are probably better than what's on those "counters" anyways!

There's also a little 2-legger that I follow around and so love it when he finally gives up and we get some hug time - I just love being close to him!

Really looking forward to lots of hugs from my forever people too!  

Stay tuned for more about me all week!

Hugs, Jack

Gym (Iwannaquitthegym): 2/28/2022 - Lazy Sunday

I love getting to sleep in on Sunday mornings and snooze in the sunshine! My foster family is very proud that I've become so accustomed to the cat that I don't even look up from my blankets when he runs by. But I'm always eager to pose for a photo or two.

 

       

Going for walks in the city is so fun because there's always someone walking by who wants to tell me how beautiful I am—and I'm certainly willing to open my ears to that conversation. 

Fluff (Idontknowaboutyou) 2/26

 Hi I'm Fluff! I've been in my foster home for almost a week and I've learned a lot of new things. I became a pro at stairs really quickly, and once I figured out how comfy the dog bed was, that became my favorite place to be. I quickly learned not to potty in the house, and I'm really good at alone time in my crate. I'm pretty indifferent to my foster brother so I wouldn't mind either way having a doggy sibling. I know that I love getting pets but I'm still not sure how to ask for them, so for now I'll continue standing in front of my foster parents until they figure out what I'm asking for. I'm very sweet and quiet, and pretty chill in general. I'm curious about the house but perfectly content to just sit and relax all evening. I'm learning how to walk nicely on a leash and I'm getting pretty good at that. I'm happy to just be your shadow and stay by your side. It's only been a few days so my full personality hasn't completely emerged yet, but with the right family welcoming me, I'll make the perfect addition.

Dozer helping with homework- 2/26/2022

Hi! Dozer here again! I am helping my foster human sister with her homework today! 


As you can clearly see I am a VERY big help!! 
I did try to chew on the homework and notebook so my Foster human sister could use the excuse “ the Dog are my homework!!” 😂

Whew!! I didn’t realize doing homework would be so exhausting!!! 

Until next time!

Dozers modeling pics- 2/24/2022

Hi! It’s Dozer here again! Remember that unexpected warm day in February??!!…. Well my Foster mom took some awesome “model” pics of me!! Enjoy my cuteness!! 



Ok— now I am trying to hide to get away from my Foster mom!!

This is my Foster mom’s favorite one… she says I look like I am just taking it all in and just lovin retirement!!

Of course modeling is hard work….

I hope you enjoyed my photo shoot!! All I ever hear from my Foster family is what a good boy I am!! I take my time eating, I have very good bathroom habits and no accidents, I am so playful and loveeeeeeeeee all the pets and kisses I can get! Until next time!

Gym (Iwannaquitthegym): 2/24/2022 - Exploring Baltimore!

Gym here with another update! I recently started staying with a new foster family and I have adjusted very quickly to living in a small house in the city and doing all my business on the leash during walks. I have made a new friend here and we love to snuggle together! Here I am holding her hand while she naps.

I have also decided that my full name—Iwannaquitthegym—is perfect for me. I believe that yoga mats are not for exercise but are meant for relaxing and enjoying retired life. 

I prefer to be active outside, like taking a walk in the woods!

I love going on long walks! It's my favorite way to explore the world around me and spend time with my foster family - and eventually, my forever family!

Dozer’s Greyt retirement! - 2/17/2022

Hi! Dozer here! I love this thing they call “ Retirement “!

Here I am with my foster dog sister, Coco! She is so sweet… she lets me have the dog pillow! 

It’s Valentine’s Day❤️! My foster fam said I couldn’t eat that delicious smelling chocolate bar… or I would get sick! I am very curious and like being in on all the action!!! 

Oh there my foster mom goes again … taking  another cute pic of me snoozing 💤! I do this pretzel kind -of -hiding -my face thing when I am sleeping! 

 I am just loving retirement life and am ready to meet my forever family on Saturday!! 

Love , 

Dozer

Artie (RT Rtwodogto) 2/17/22 - I'm ready!

Hi everyone!  I'm excited about this weekend.   My foster parents say that I've learned so much over the past few weeks.  I'm good at the stairs, I'm good on the leash, and I'm good with my foster brother and sister,although I would be okay with being an only dog. I get along with my 13 year old human foster brother.   

I love to get rubs and scratches from my foster parents. I am very food motivated too. I listen very well to corrections.  I like to "steal" things and take them back to my bed for safe keeping.  I'm a sweet, loving big boy. ❤

Me with my foster sister.

Sasha (Arroyo Sasha) 2/16/22 - Making Friends

Bwahahahaha! My foster brothers have succumbed to my charms! FoMa told me they don't like to share beds. That's just because they hadn't met me! I'm super-soft and snuggly, and who could resist this face? Today the dog bed, tomorrow the world! 

Cuddles,

Sasha

Dozer’s loving retirement! 2/13/2022

Hi, it’s Dozer back again! I have to say I have had a terrific first week of retirement at my Foster family’s house!! 

I went to the bus stop with my Foster Sister. We were the first ones there but then about 5-6 little kids arrived… and I loved it! I LOVED all the attention and petting I was getting- I didn’t want it to stop!! I was very polite and did not jump up on anyone… just my tail was wagging like crazy!! I wasn’t scared of new people, cars or buses going by. My foster mom and I then went on a walk. My foster mom said I did really good on the leash! It was so much fun exploring and all the new smells— my nose was going crazy!! 

Me when my Foster mom is calling me!! I know my name! 

Whew!! What a fun week!! My foster mom always manages to catch me snoozing💤 ! My afternoon naps!! 

Until next time! 

Love ❤️ 

Dozer 

Finley (I Am Savage) 2/13/22 Walk in the Park!

 This retirement thing is a walk in the park!  Literally!!!!!

I loved walking on the trails at the park!  There was so much to see, I am a sight hound after all!

And then we found a lake!!!!

The next day I had an appointment at the Vet to get a couple shots that I still needed.  I was a little nervous at first but foster mom said that I did great and was a very good girl, so she took me to another cool place for walk! Who knew there was soooo much water in the world!!!  And birds!!!

Oh, we do bunches of other stuff besides walking which I love!  (Have I mentioned that I really love walking with my hooman?)  For instance, here I am helping foster mom cook!

I love playing and hanging out with squeaky toys!

Silly me!!!!  Look foster mom!  I'm a roach!  

And finding cozy places to take a wee snooze!  I am especially good at this!

Gym 1/12/22 - Morning walk and glamor shots

 This morning Gym came along on a morning walk with a couple from the household pack.  He did great.  Everyone is happily napping off the morning adventure now.  We did manage to grab some really great photos of Gym to show off some of his stellar good looks.

Gym on the left with Liberty (center) and Lane (right)

His coat was so shiny in the sun.

Really, he is super stunning.

Those eyes are dreamy.

He has no bad side. 

We also had another really special "first" today.  After breakfast Gym came running over and gave me a face full of gentle kisses.  He was just so happy and tail wagging the entire time.  He has been very affectionate but kisses were a first.
