On the "Motivational Poster" website I created a mosaic with some of my favorite pics from previous foster/ shelter dogs. Please join! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/24_hello.gif

The lady that gave us Gypsy got her from a shelter. What a smart, beautiful, and loving dog she is too.
Thank you God for our Gypsy! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/25_angel.gif
Here's my shelter baby, Sable. She came from the Humane Society of the Black Hills here in SD. She's come a long way from the sad girl I found standing in her urine. I can't walk thru there without bawling. I wouldn't trade her for anything in the world, and believe me I get offers! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/03_wink.gif
My Gaia - being hugged by Daddy, Maedchen rescued her from a shelter just before she was to be PTS, and Carolina (GSDBESTK9) arranged her transport north for me!
DH has said no more dogs for now, but has let me adopt two kitties in the past year & half;
Caroline (ruling the roost from my son's bed):
and Caleb, whose name is Hebrew for "Dog"!!!! (Little did DH know another "dog" had slipped in! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/03_wink.gif )
I've never had a velcro-cat before, maybe at heart he really is more canine ...
This is my Abby. Not a pure GSD, but GSD and yellow lab. I adopted her from the shelter. She was grown when I got her, but young. I had her for just over 16 years...January 1987 - February 2003.
This picture was taken while we were on vacation in Rhode Island.
Sally dog-my trophy puppy from W.Virginia. I fostered her mom and siblings who all had parvo, and then she became my foster failure;
Chewbacca-adopted from shelter in LI, NY-you can read his story in the "where are they now" forum;
Matsi-from a breeder prior to my rescuing days;
Red-adopted from Boston Animal Shelter where he sat for six months while his owner, a reverend here in Boston, was prosecuted for severe neglect. (Some of his other dogs didn't make it).
Rose-we have some dogs who look alike, I think-the Chowish ones!
Kramer from the Erie HS, Erie, PA
Ava from the Wooster, OH shelter
Naji from Columbus, OH shelter then to Paws of Gold Rescue then adopted by me
Bruno from a WVA shelter to BrightStar foster then adopted by me
Anna from a TN shelter, eventually to BrightStar and given to me by them.
Nina from Menands, NY shelter to BrightStar, never leaving!
Sean and Neely both from the same shelter. Sean was brought in as a stray when the police found him, and Neely was an animal surrender. The thought of these two sweet, lovable creatures not making it out of the shelter would have broken my heart. Just wish I could have saved more. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/31_paw.gif
Here's my Bear--sprung from a Kentucky kill shelter, transported to Ohio with 3 Lab rescues (we snuck her in, the black coat helped), and then driven by her new Mommy to her first ever real home in Pittsburgh (go Steelers!) in '03.
We're now back in my hometown, Rochester, NY, where Bear is mightily spoiled by her Grandma & Grandpa and has become a much adored Goofball Princess by all lucky enough to know her! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/03_wink.gif
Yes, that's my bathrobe she's 'playing' with! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/08_rolleyes.gif
Which is the funniest picture you have of your dog that makes you crack up when ever you see it?
I'll start, this one of Gala drying her head off just cracks me up every time:
This Bob Barker, he will be 11 months this week....
I have fallen in love with the sables, I wanna see all those beauties!!!
