| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures They are all wonderful dogs you can see that in the photos you post. Poor Patti with the nub photographs like I do. LOL I always look like I went out on a drinking binge. LOL I can't seem to keep my eyes all the way open in pictures and always do something dumb with my mouth. Bree is of course, my favorite. I hope they all find wonderful homes. It is so strange how people don't wish to adopt the dark colored dogs. I must be a freak because I always think the dark color dogs are cutest. LOL You do such a wonderful job with the pictures. I so wish we had a set up like you do. I would need fosters of course as well. I think it is always interesting to see what dogs are popular where. |

Besides the pups we haven't had any others. I just keep posting up dates on them; they're the same dogs. Rosy was a surprise! And Cookie is a chihuahua I just meant she already has a Rat Terrier at home..sorry for that confusion.
Yeah I never really liked my name and everyone names their dogs that now.  *coughs* YOU *coughs*. So I like to go by something different. | Lol, I just noticed that
Oh, that makes sense. Yeah, I thought that might be what you meant after I posted...but I wasn't sure. Thanks for clearing it up.
Heyhey, Dakota is 7 years old, I tooootaly named her before the trend  . Actually, I was even the one that named her so no blaming me  . |

Besides spending the day with them the next best part for me are the pictures. Although I don't have the best of camera and really hope to get a canon soon, but until then..
Darker dogs are really hard to adopt here and always have been. The light colored and white dogs go like the wind. Black dogs are almost as hard as bullies to adopt; which to me is amazing because I couldn't care less about the color and love the bullies! Quote:

I think it's a pretty name for a dog..just not me I guess. I see them sticking around a while so I'll have to get used to it or give him a nick name..

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Mr. Pooch-
She's a full blooded American Staffordshire Bull Terrier. She hates cats..we've had a few incedents with her and cats so they are no longer friends and would do better as an only dog. So you're in the clear.  She is great with other dogs as long as she doesn't feel the need to take it to the next level. If she feels threatened even to the slightest bit she will show her dominance. Other wise she is a great dog with kids, people both men and women. She has been growing on me, but without the room and already have four dogs. I really don't see her getting adopted any time soon and her scared face (from playing so hard) only makes her look more mean. We have to tell people she's really nice because they think she's an xfighting dog..  |

Aye, I wish there were more in my area as well. Actually based on some forums I've been on there IS a large bully community in WA (We even have a state APBT club) but I don't meet them a lot in shelter work. Not at my shelter, anyway.
Lol, if only I could replace all the people who come in any say "No way, those dogs turn on you!" with lovers...well that'd be perfect  . |

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Hmmm as I dig the paper with all the dog names out of my wallet...Today was SoOO rainy! It rained off and on the whole entire five hours we were open. So now my hair is all curly lol.. We had a full house(city, ADB, and Oak Hill) so there are even more pictures then last week and I uploaded over 40 pictures..don't worry I'm not posting them all.
An old time buddy of mine came back for our adoption drive. He's been with the city for forever and seems to just be to much for everyone. He needs a home with plenty of exercise and love. You'd think any dog lover would take him. His name is Wolfgang.
My other Baby Gabby. She's been with us since she was pretty young and is now 7-8 months old. Still young but big; not many people look once they're her size. It's sad, but true. She weighs about 50-60 pounds and is still not done growing. I LOVE her nose!
Twinkie is also still with us; two of her sisters along with herself were found wondering in a park near her now fosters home. There are two of them left; Twinkie and Snickers. Hehe 
Twinkie and her bussy Stazia..Stazia is only 3-4 years old and only loves her foster mom. 
*Lots More* |

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Our big bears Ranger & Kodiac (was Dakota). They're Akita/Husky mixes and Ranger is growing on me. I said he needs a German accent. lol Look how big and only 3 months old 
Patti came again today. Her cute little bob tail and a personality that charms everyone. She's smart, gental, and just loves life. 
Tyler; that big pig! He's still a puppy, but has the belly for a large breed adult. j/k It's huge thought!

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Blackie came with the City and everyone loved him. He got a long with everyone and everyone got along with him. He's got a gental soul and only wants to please. We were sad to see him go back to the shelter.
Chula and Carol are very close and have raised their puppies together. Chula is the mother of the fluffy puppies I posted a while back and Carol is the mother of the Terrier pups. They were found close together and have been unseparable.
And we have a new Sugar..She's got a long past and even a past owner that maybe in jail.. She's been through a lot.
Bella started in Alaska where she lived with her owner. He got transfered to Texas and she came along where he could no longer keep her. So she was boarded at tooth acres and had to get out. She is now with one of our fosters. So even though her past isn't that great it's pretty cool that she's from Alaska and this cold weather we're complaining about is nothing to her! 
*More*

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures We have another new set of pups. Ripley and Troy a Lab mix and a Shep mix. They're said to be about 9 weeks, but I don't see it. I think they're a lot younger than that.
Dexter was neutered, but came full fledged to party! He has made it his number one priority to protect his foster mom. It makes adoptions hard for him when he's in such a shell. He's coming a long though.
Alice has been with the city for a while too. She's a sweetie and loved everyone. She can go from full of energy to alseep on your lap with the snap of a finger.
Kaia is a cutie too. She's about 2 1/2 months old and said to be a Boston Terrier, but no one saw it in her. We see more Heeler and Chihuahua than anything. 
*A Few More* |

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures Ooooh I'll take Alice...She's lovely, and I need a second dog that has lots of energy but still likes to crash, since that's how Kim's turning out to be. How old is she? 8 mo. to 3 yrs would be perfect...lol. Think she would like to do casual agility when she grows up a bit more?  How about hiking and canoing? |

| Re: A Different Breed Adoption Pictures What I want to know is how is it that people can continue to breed their dog with stupid excuses as to why they are doing it when there are so many wonderful looking and sweet dogs out there already. I love Baby Gabby and I would look at her. She has a great face if you ask me. I am partial to black and tan mind you, but wow she is really lovely. She also has kind eyes. NOT fair I tell ya. I hope they all find homes. How do they decide who comes and how often can they come to the adoption fair? It goes on every weekend right?
Shaina, Alice looks like a gal that would love to go hiking and Canoing. I bet she would be an agility master. LOL
She sure has a sweet look on her face doesn't she?

Everyone was rooting for her today! Quote:

She's got a great personality, but when they see 60 pounds and only 7 months old they jump back with "  " <- with that facial expression. I for one love huge dogs and the bigger they get the more I'll probably like them.
I go every week unless I'm sick..or even if I'm sick in some cases. The City comes every other weekend now; it used to be once a month. Oak Hill comes every week also. We have an adoption every week though. |
