Lottie - Couch Potato
Just wanted to give you a 6 month update on Lottie. I picked her up 6 months ago yesterday. She continues to do so well. She has become such a special little person in our family and my husband and I both love her so much. She gets lots of hugs and kisses and love every day. Everyone who comes to visit thinks she is as sweet as can be.
My husband is up for re-election here in Boardman, and we have even posted a couple of pictures of Lottie and my husband on his campaign website. She has gotten quite a bit of attention and been an asset to his campaign. Whenever anyone asks about where we got her, I tell them about "Rose's Rescue".
Hope your wonderful work continues and all is well with you. What a difference you and your organization are making.
Thanks again for letting us have her. She really seems so happy here and contented.

Dear Rose,
I thought I sent these pics with my note yesterday. A picture of Lou & Luna, then a picture of Luna. Thanks again for helping the strays.
Sincerely, Beth

Mudd and Lydia. Soul mates.
We adopted Mudd three years ago. He had a bit of trouble staying home alone at first. He loved to pile presents near the front door so we'd be sure to see them as soon as we got home. He'd gather pillows, shoes, hats, dishes - whatever he could find. Dad decided to take him to work at the music store until he was able to overcome his separation anxiety. He's a doll now. Stays home with no trouble at all. Being a cell dog, he came to us very well trained. Since then we've learned to shake (both hands) and roll over. He is very smart. He's learned to fetch and loves to chase the squirrels in the back yard. He runs super fast and almost caught one the other day.
We adopted Lydia just a few months ago. She and I bonded instantly. She's a wonderful girl who had rough start. Mother of 9 puppies and complications after being spayed - but all that is behind her. She's the one being babied now. And Mudd adores her, too. She loves to run the perimeter of the yard with Mudd. We call her "The Bullet" because she keeps up with him despite being half his size. She likes playing tug and is learning to chase the balls we throw. We also discovered she loves to unravel skeins of yarn so those stay safely locked away when we're not home.
We've been lucky to provide forever homes to such wonderful rescues. They care for us just as much as we care for them. Maybe even more. It's great to be a dog's person!
