He is the best thing that happened to John and I. I also wanted to tell you that we are getting married and plan to have Smooch at the wedding, he will have the very important job of walking John down the aisle. We will send you pictures so you can show everyone. Thank you for introducing us to such a wonderful little baby! Everyday we love him even more! Thank you so much!

Dixie approves  her new house

Miss Dixie Darling is now settled into her new home and seems very happy... My husband Bob cleaned up her dog house … She checked everything out and seemed pleased with it… About an hour later it received her final approval as we watched her rear up at the side of the dog house, place both front legs on top of it & put her head on it like she was saying "Thank you God for such a wonderful house"! She then promptly entered and took a 2 1/2 hour nap.
Our dog Pete as been so helpful in getting her acclimated to her new surroundings... He has been the Poster Dog for patience, bless his heart.
Dixie is fine and very happy. She has a queen size … pillow for her house, squeaky toys, chewys and plenty of love. We're convinced she's a Saint sent from heaven.
...I can't wait to try out new vegetables for her to see what she likes. Veggies are important. … I'll keep you updated on her progress. She's a fine dog and is already much loved.
Jan, Bob, and Pete

Molly, its only going to get better!

  "I just want you to know how much we have enjoyed having Molly as a part of our family. We adopted her through the Humane Society around Thanksgiving of last year. Molly was very timid. I was very concerned for her when we first brought her home because she immediately found a corner in our kitchen and hid. ... Since then we have showered Molly with love and patience and it has been wonderful to see her come out of her shell. ... Now, she runs to greet me every afternoon with her tail wagging. She is very loving and affectionate. Little by little we have watched her learn to trust us and become a very integral member of our family. We consider ourselves very lucky to have her. ... From here it can only get better. Thank you for allowing us to take her into our home."
