JAMES with his new family — Trey, Marley and their human Katherine December, 2011

	BAILEY Adopted in July 201 She and Rigby are now constant playmates, racing and wrestling all around the yard (and the house— they love house tag!). Love it when they tug on the same stick or toy!
We've been taking her to classes at the local club and she does really well. The teacher is always picking her for the "demo dog," because she learns so fast and she makes the teacher look good! Maddie isn't in these pictures but she still reigns supreme. Bailey quickly figured out who's really in charge here. And as you can see, Dave is absolutely besotted with her. He's like a teenager in love. She's a hoot!1
This is Rick and his new buddy Monk. Adopted in 2010

	GUNNY (Adopted April, 2011) Gunny celebrates his birthday on May 21 with his new family.

MAGGIE (Adopted November, 2010) Persuading her to sit for a photo is not an easy task but John was able to snap this one of her smiling into the camera. The Greenville Humane Society is looking for a new "face" to represent the new facility that will open in a few months and we submitted Maggie's photo. Of course we think she is a winner, whether she is selected or not. She is doing just great. She loves taking walks and runs and riding in the car on short errands. She is a wonderful addition to our family and we think she is as happy with us as we are with her. Ginny

When Sophie was 5 (she's now 8), she jumped off the bed and herniated a disk, which then compressed her spine. She was such a trooper through a surgery, physical therapy, even an underwater treadmill and doggy acupuncture! When it was clear she wouldn't walk again, she took to her wheelchair like a total champ. Most of the day, she's contented to mosey around the house using her front legs alone. But for longer walks, she wears her wheelchair; and then she's been known to hike 6 miles without batting an eye. She's always up for a ride in the car, or a walk to wherever. But she also relaxes at home just fine.

(October, 2009) We just wanted to touch base about the dogs, and let you know just how much we love them – it’s a love fest! They’ve come a long way since we brought them home ten months ago and seem to enjoy their country surroundings. Cora and TJ were absolutely frightened of everyone, including my husband, when they first arrived. They were also quite frightened of other dogs with absolutely no interest in playing with them. TJ jumped at every sound and had the night frights like you wouldn’t believe and neither knew what it meant to play with a dog toy, they were scared straight of them. Everyday they have gained new confidence and now let most strangers pet them. They are great at restaurants when we take them to outdoor patios and yesterday was a huge breakthrough when they both started playing with toys -- I couldn’t believe it!
We call them our muppets. Cora particularly looks like a little muppet.
Thanks for gracing our lives with these sweet dogs! Read nore about Cora and TJ

This week since we've had him he's learning the following:

• Upon arrival he wouldn't go up or down steps. Now, he races up steps up and down.
• He's become very close with our other dog. "McDuff" (see photo)
• He knows his name now and comes when called.
• He sleeps without interruption throughout the night on the end of our bed.
• He has a favorite chair to nap in which we don't mind
• He's very energetic and loves to cuddle
• In the process of investigating every closet and room in the house, is very curious, which we feel is a sign of intelligence.

Floyd, nee Boy (Adopted February 2009)

Floyd, following a recent trip to the groomer where he won the Mr Cordiality award...what a great dog he is. Lynda and I thank you and everyone involved in making him part of our family. Best regards, Neal Wein

Dart (Adopted February 2009)

We have a new nickname for Dart now "devil on wheels".  We are proud to announce he is graduating from his training class tonight- a very food motivated learner, if there ever was one. He and his step-sister Besa continue to play endlessly with each other. We take them to the dog park and they never leave each others' side or play with anyone else (we've tried taking them seperately and they just stand next to us).  When we are in the wine country we often look our our window and see them in hot pursuit of each other. Besa really has his number down and knows just the right way to get him to chase her. Dart has grown into a really handsome young pooch. He is blacker than night and has big paws. His bark is a grumble followed by some type of woof but it sounds more like and "eruption" than a bark.  He is super gentle with our god children and only snapped at our handyman Larry (his nose to be exact) when Larry refused to let him go.

Cooper, nee Max (Adopted December 2008)

Max has finally found his forever home after being bounced around three times at his mere 10 months. His new family now calls him Cooper and he loves his new brother Brody.

Dickens, a 3-year old male Tibetan Terrier, now living in Connecticut (Adopted October 2008)

Shakira (Adopted October, 2008) We are so in love with our "little girl" Shakira. It has only been a little over a week, and we think she is doing great. She is such a smart dog. We just hope she isn't too bored with us. She is slowly getting used to the folks next door. Anyway, we are so happy to have her. She sleeps with us and stays the whole night without closing any doors. Keith has started the walks, and she is so excited to get the leash on. Thanks so much. Lorraine
