Here's my little actress Matilda, drove all the other rescues to shame with her manners that day. ;)

Isn't she pretty for seven? I guess she's been catching up on her beauty sleep since we got her, such a lazy girl.
Actress? She was doing her best to get noticed. She had already picked you!

Beautiful dog. She might be sleeping a lot due to all the stress from her past life at the shelter, etc. Now that she has found a safe home she feels comfortable to sleep off all that stress. Enjoy your new family member.

4 of our rescues

If I have attached the photos correctly, here are four of our rescues. Two of them we lost in Nov/Dec of last year, hard stuff. Still have two, the sable and the black pictured in our kitchen.

Here's my two shelter dogs! Sasha was adopted from high kill county shelter in Colorado about 6 years ago. Blitz came from a shelter in South Carolina over 8 years ago.

Great pics on this thread of some great looking dogs.

I drove to Indiana this past weekend to adopt Kali from a county pound. She was purchased as a purebred puppy and then dumped at the pound by her owners. At just seven months, I'm hoping there is time to recover from the complete lack of attention and training she has received up until now.

My Boy Diesel

This is Diesel I adopted him from the RSPCA last week, we're doing a lot of work on not mouthing (such sharp puppy teeth!) and he's coming along really well. He only has three legs (he had to have one amputated) but that doesn't slow him down :)

Bear is from the Barron County Humane society:

Quinn came from a small rescue outside of Independence, WI. She was found wandering in someone's field so matted and dirty that they weren't even sure what kind of dog she was! Her tail and ears were so badly done (cropped way too short and weird, and docked too short) as well, and for awhile they thought she was some kind of mutt. We had her DNA tested, and she actually is a white Schnauzer, so that's good to know. :D
This picture was a stop for gas on the way to pick up Bear from the Barron County shelter.

And, even though she's no longer with us (died at age 15 after a stroke last Nov.), Tilly was a Norwegian Elkhound we got from the Clark County Humane society in WI.
Her muzzle and face turned white as she got older, and people always mistook her for a small husky. When she was younger, she had a black face. She was about 14 in this picture:
