#663 Akylla

Hello,  I did not want today to pass without sharing a memory . One year ago today Peter was kind enough to drop Akylla off to us.  She came right in and knew she was safe,  I tried hard to stay focused as a foster,  loving and caring for her while she gained confidence but as soon as we saw her kind and gentle eyes we knew she was in her forever home .  And then the unimaginable happened ... and the rest is history .  Thank you for trusting...

Good Morning, I completely forgot to let you guys know that Piper turned 1 year old on Tuesday! Once again, thank you for all your help. We can’t imagine life without Piper she is perfect. She is doing amazing, the most loving and gentle puppy! We are doing great, enjoying the summer with piper. She has been camping, tubed down the sacco river as well. We love to be outdoors so we are happy she is able to enjoy all the activities beside us. She is spoiled, but living her best, well deserved...

#640 Jax

Hi Tina, Jax is doing very well. He has overcome quite a few fears and bad behaviors in the past year.  He loves people, other dogs, and children. He gets lots of exercise (me too) and now loves to go places in the car. We still work biweekly with a trainer to reinforce his retraining. His best friend is a two-year old GSD named Alfie, who he plays with every weekend. In general, he is a very happy, gentle GSD. Oh, and he happens to be absolutely gorgeous.   I am so grateful to the GSRNE...

#608 – Howie

Howie and Elsie are doing well together.  I took it really slow but I think it paid off.  I had them loose at times in the house a few weeks ago but just started having them free together in the yard with the bigger fenced in area.  Howie can be a bit vocal during times of excitement which made Elsie not interested in the relationship.  Now that he has come down a notch I feel comfortable having them together. This weekend we are going on a field trips for 3-4 days up North. I’m going to...

#590 Pepper

Pepper is an ongoing project, but she is the sweetest puppy.  She’s full of love for us and her brother Casper, but for no one else. Her favorite person in the whole world is her dad. They go for daily morning walks with him and play ball with me in the afternoon.  Her manners are excellent and the stress she previously showed about noises of any and all kinds is all but gone.  All in all she is doing very...
