Kalvin Update!

Kalvin is doing absolutely wonderful!! He and Jack get along so incredibly well! They play alot! They love the rope! When Alan comes home in the evening, I let them out on the porch and they go running up to meet him! He does love Alan! He won't give me kisses, but he will Alan! He is still fascinated with Baby, our older cat, but Baby is not afraid of him, just Kalvin I think doesn't understand why Baby won't play with him! Cookie and Chip, the outside kitties love him! They will let him lick them, and he will play with them! It is so funny!

Well, tell Mike we say hi, and so does Kalvin!!!

Fred

Just wanted to thank you again for placing Fred in our family. We had a great weekend. Saturday he woke up and rolled over to get his belly scratched. He went with the boys in the morning. They say he rode in car really well. He watched the soccer game from the truck, in a blanket with Jeff. The rest of the Sat activities we rained out. We stayed home and played.Sat night, we were all sitting on the floor playing a card game. Fred walked around wanting to see everyone's cards. Sunday I took the kids to church. Jeff volunteered to stay home with Fred. He said he howled and looked out all the windows for about 10 minutes after we left. He's been following our every move since we got back home.

He wags for every family member now. He enjoys the little ones the most. He even went for a walk with them yesterday afternoon. He sleeps all night. However, when I get up he's ready to go (after a few stretches).

We are having a great time getting to know each other.

Autumn is home!

Thank you all so much! You have helped make this whole process so incredibly smooth and wonderful. I've had a great day with Autumn - she is such a good dog. I seriously think she's the most awesome dog ever!!! We played in the backyard, I took her for a walk in the neighborhood, we took a car ride to the pet store to get a longer leash and a retractable and then played in the back yard some more, then we took another car ride and went to the park for a really long walk. She did great in the car and on the walk when other people would pass with dogs or kids or when I would say "leave it" to something she was focused on. She minds so well! When I fed her dinner - she sat before I gave her the bowl. And when it was my turn to eat - she just curled up under the table and laid down at my feet. She's laying at my feet as I type this. She's gotten lots of belly rubs and love today! She is so loveable! Thank you all so much for everything.
Blessings,
Autumn

Just last month we celebrated Chloe's first year with us, her new Forever Family.

We thank you gratefully for rescuing her and helping her find her way to us.

Marvin- World Traveler

Marvin is doing great! He's right beside me here in Memphis for the holidays, and he and my cat Clapton have become buds! Marv came along with me and my boyfriend on a month long road trip this summer to South Carolina (took him to the beach, wasn't a big hit since water isn't exactly his thing), up to Massachusetts and then out to Colorado, and it's safe to say he had a blast. The car is without a doubt his happy place and we couldn't have asked for a better travel buddy. I can't believe it's only been a year since he joined the family, it feels like we've had him forever. Looking forward to the calendar and the shirts, I hope you're having a great holiday season.

Cheers!
Sam

p.s. I attached some recent pics :)

Molly is now Ayla

Everything is going absolutely fantastic! I had originally planned on Molly (Ayla now) sleeping in her crate the first couple nights she was here until she got used to the place - but she's been sleeping in my bed all night long. I swear - you would've thought that she'd been living here her whole life! :-)

Everything is going fantastic and everyone loves her. Sadie and her play all the time, so it works out well.

Thanks again for all your help!

Chance is in heaven!

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you know that Chance is continuing to adapt extremely well. I adore him, and Dale is really enjoying him. They "hang out" together in his office/studio during the work day. He is in HEAVEN! When we go on our morning runs (2 miles), his little feet move so quickly, I'm not sure you can see them! Chance especially loves his bed, and he continues to sleep well through the night. His favorite thing to do (besides running) is riding in the car, and he behaves beautifully. I take him with me whenever I can. A couple of days ago, we went to my mom's assisted living and the ladies in my mom's card group petted him. They were completely enamored with his great manners, his soft coat and his total sweetness.

Just wanted to take a minute to thank all of you for taking such wonderful care of Chance until we found him! We truly enjoy his "dual" personality...cuddly and loving, yet also a bold, brave "big dog". He is everything we could have wished for and MORE. :)
