Attached is a picture of Gracie's first leisurely boat ride....she did extremely well! She just loves trying things. We're celebrating her first year anniversary of her adoption today!

#539 Rosco

We wanted to give you an update on Rosco.  He's halfway through his training and is doing great.  We love him sooo much ! When we're out hiking he wears the shoes because he was having a problem with pads on his paws.  Our vet suggested them and told us it was very common with German Shepherds.  He's great with putting them on too, we give him a treat, put them on and we go for a walk so he associates it with going for a walk and likes putting them on. HE'S SUCH A GOOD DOG, I CAN'T THANK...

Lola is doing terrific! We love her!  She is a favorite among the neighborhood kids as well. She goes for a 3 mile hike with me in the woods every morning. In the year since she came to our home, we may have missed 10-15 mornings...that's it. She very rarely leaves my side. These are a couple of pictures of her at the beach on Cape Cod last...

#522 – Leroy

Look at this sweet boy! This wonderful guy has been with us almost 4 years. He enjoys his walks by the river or just around the woods or just loves to play in the yard and chase the bunnies and squirrels. He had a clean bill of health at the vet so we are happy with that. As you can see he is quite the Velcro dog, always at my side 24/7. He’s a biggest mama’s boy! I work from home so this helps with his separation anxiety.  He truly is the best, and we are so happy that he is with us and...

#517 Spirit

It’s hard to believe that this sweet girl was left at a high-kill shelter two years ago.  Lucky for Spirit an all breed rescue saw her just before her time was up and got her out of there.  The all breed rescue were immediately impressed with her friendly nature and decided she would have her best chance to find a forever home if she could be where people would look for a German Shepherd specifically.   Spirit was adopted two years ago today on June 8, 2019 by a young couple who fell in...
