Kobe (Coach Kobe): 10/14 - Sunshine!

Guys! Fall weather is my favorite! I LOVE being outside in the sunshine, don’t you?



My foster siblings (Winston and Lily) like to spend time outside, too. 






Napping in the sunshine, zero responsibilities, and pumpkin spice lattes might make me a basic long boi, but I really don’t mind!
Happy Fall, y’all!  - Kobe




Kitty (WW Unakite): 10/14 - For Me?!

 

Flowers! You shouldn't have! Oh you didn't? That's ok...can I try and eat one to see if it tastes as good as it looks? Nope. That's fine too! Lets go for a walk instead.

Sometimes when I'm out for a walk I like to play "hey what's that?" It involves me stopping in the middle of a path, doing a little squint, then pointing one ear forward and one ear down while I try and work out what's going on.


   All that is hard work though, and it doesn't take long before I need to recharge my batteries.

Gene (Superior Genie): 10/12 - A Roach!



I've got to update you all! Foster sister Selene has taught me about a new trick called 'roaching.' 
I flip over onto my back and stick my legs up in the air, just like a cockroach. 
Then, I get all the belly rubs from foster mom. What a treat!


I can't help but smile!!!

- Gene


Kitty (WW Unakite): 10/10 - Just to Confirm

Hello! Even though my name is Kitty, I realized I forgot to mention I'm a kitty-dog and not a kitty-cat! Someone meowed at me yesterday when they found out my name is Kitty, so I thought I better let everyone know I'm actually not a cat.



Here is how you can tell: I have four paws and a tail...


I have two ears and a nose...


....and I'm a Greyhound!

- Kitty

Kobe (Coach Kobe): 10/10 - Good morning!

Kobe here! I make an excellent companion for daily activities. Every morning, while foster mom makes the bed, I like to help by supervising the stack of dog beds. 
So many beds, so little time to sleep on all of them. 💤 




Bailey (Super C Bailey): 10/7 - Patiently Waiting

I'm loving the beautiful fall days we've been having and seeing all the sights and sounds of fall on our daily walks. I watch the crazy squirrels with interest but don't think they're worth my time.  On our walks,  the humans often chat with neighbors and if they're taking too long, I will find a comfy place to rest and wait ever so patiently. I am perfectly content just watching the world pass by. I'm also patiently waiting to meet my forever family and hope to meet them soon! - Bailey



Mika (Mac’s Tamika): 10/7 - New Toy!

I ❤️ my new stuffed animal toy... a sloth! I have so much fun tossing it around and chewing on it... and bonus... it SQUEAKS!!! And then I ❤️ just laying with it when I am tired. 💤  



Did someone say “Treat”!?! One of my favorite words! 🦴
