| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures I REALLY need to get on this road trip thing.. Map out where everyone is and pack up all the dogs. That way when I get there I can have all dogs on hand.  I wonder how many dogs I could have adopted by now.
*** We got a phone call back from the family that wants to meet Britches. He sounds really nice and we're setting the meet up for this week. I'm going to have to get busy taking pictures so that is he does go everyone will have their share of him.  I'll keep everyone updated on how it goes.  *** |

Although, it makes me sad as if I'm losing a dog from my own home. Why do I feel like that??
Stella and Bella are my favorites. |

Stella and Bella are my favorites. | I know. Everytime I get a call on him I cringe just a little hoping they don't take him. He's such a good dog and we'd keep him if we could handle a full time 5th dog. He will be very missed. I will miss him the most, but it's time for him to make some one else as happy as he's made us.  Wish us luck!
Everyone really loves Stella and Bella. Both are great dogs. Bella is one smart cookie though!  |

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures It was so strange going to today’s adoption without my Britches boy. But it sure was busy once I got there and we were really open. I hadn’t seen it that busy in months! Groups of people coming in, but still not to many adoptions.
Fabian was adopted and Chula from Oak Hill.
My favorite of the day was Berdie a Terrier of some sort. Two people said there was pit in her, but I don’t see any in her. She is the Bearded Lady as I call her.. with a plum/purple nose. You’d think she had frost bite or something it was REALLY purple! If you have an guesses as to what she could be by all means share them. She is between 4 and 5 months all; probably weighs around 20 -25 pounds and that includes her big ol’ belly.
Her sleeping in a crate across the room.

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Jimmy is also new with us. He was found in a Tom Thumb when the temperature got up to 105 degrees he wondered into the store and headed for the fruit section. It was cool and he got plenty of love. He is now in a foster home where he gets all the love in the world and stays cool.
A better shot of the luv muffin
Now this is the face of an unhappy boy.. He only wanted to be in my lap, but when I made him get off he went pouting behind me. I’m not sure, but I don’t think he knew I could get a picture of him if he was behind me. His look is “Are you serious?”. lol

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures A woman who works rescue adopted a dog she later found out was pregnant. Having 5 puppies she came into the adoption to see if she could get them adopted. So I set up a crate; such great puppies. They are 7 weeks old and range in size by a lot. With such different personalities it’s funny to watch. The mom is a Aussie mix, but we see a little Shepherd, Aussie, maybe Border Collie? There is a bit of everything.
The cutest (imo) of the group is Willy Mammoth; 7 weeks and has to be at least 10 pounds. The goofy boy of the bunch and a super cuddle bug.
Jackie is the quiet, soft spoken, gentle girl. She has the most distinct markings and the most Shepherd looking.
Baby Bear is the adventurous, outgoing, crazy girl that likes to snuggle too. The only pup with up top ears and really short coat. I’m not sure what she is out of the mix.

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Sneaker is an active boy that likes to sleep a lot. Lol It may sound like an odd mix, but he can go from 0 to 90 within seconds.
Wilamina is the princess peach of the group. Shy, but wants to be seen, quiet, but will pitch a fit if she doesn’t get what she wants. A real ham.
Roccoo and Katchina were back. Still terrified and unsure of everything except each other.

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures The dork also known as ChaCha. That’s too small of a name for such a big girl. Whenever I hear ChaCha I think/see a Chihuahua; not a Hound/Lab mix. She is still unsure of everything, but loves to be out in the grass. She’s going to be one big lap dog though. I couldn’t keep her off; it was either her whole body or just her butt, but she was toughing me the entire time she was outside.
The puppies lined up in a crate. Paddon, Orville, and then three of the shepherd.

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Duke; sleeping with his lips all smooshed against the crate. It’s pretty amazing what dogs can sleep through!
Stella..she didn’t want to take pictures today so I got one with ears cut off. 
*All Finished*
Thank you again for taking a look this week!   |

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Alright, I have never been a fan of pink on the now, or long hair but Willy Mammoth is about as cute of a puppy as I have ever seen. I love that picture. He should be in Hollywood. He is a little dolly face boy.  |

| ADB 9/6 adoption Suba has been with us for a while, but has been bouncing around from city shelter, to foster home, to a boarding facility. He got his name because he was found in a swimming pool that had just enough water in it that mosquitoes were nesting in the water. He ended up getting heartworms by the time he was found, but has already been through treatment and is ready for his forever home. He does not like cats or maybe he just likes them WAY to much. However he shouldn't go to a home with cats. He loves all dogs though.

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Princess was recently pulled from the city too. She is shy, but warms up pretty fast. She is said to be a 2 year old Yorkie/ Schnauzer mix. She is a cutie.
Jojo was actually pulled from the city shelter during the adoption. He is a sweet boy and was found as a stray. Imo he looks like an off put of the standard Pappillion. Needs a few more baths before he gets that terrible kennel smell out of his coat. Anyone that has either worked with city shelter dogs or has spent a lot of time with them knows what smell I'm talking about. Now the first 20+ pictures I took his ears were pinned to the back of his head and his tongue was hanging out. I tried all of my nutting tricks to get him to perk up his ears, but nothing worked. For one last try I barked at him trying to get him to play and... his ears went up! So I kept barking to get a good picture. And people wonder why I don't want them standing out there when I'm taking pictures. lol I look and sound like a complete fool.

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Dolly was pulled back when I posted pictures of Lark. The shelter had them together; Dolly being an unspayed female and Lark being an unneutered male.. they were asking for trouble. Dolly was of course in heat and became pregnant. *insert head bang here* This week she came in and she had an absorbed pregnancy. (I'd never heard of this) but she is scheduled to be spayed and once Lark is healthy enough he is being set up to be neutered.
The face of a treat crazed dog. She will literally do ANYTHING for a treat. 
*Thanks for taking a look this week!!!  * |
