Adopt Asia!

Asia is one of the newest members of Our Silly Dog Pack. (See earlier posts for other photos). Asia is amazing. I have had her at my house for four hours and I am absolutely in love with her. She is a sweet, goofy, silly, girl and anybody who meets her will fall in love just as I did.

Asia is a rescue from Greenville, SC - a high kill shelter. The shelter called her a Husky/Shep mix, but now that we've hung out with her for awhile we firmly believe she is a Husky/Hound mix - what an awesome mix! She has big, floppy ears, a silly grin and huge feet!

She gets along great with other dogs -- is super playful - and kids!

If you can give Asia the home she deserves please e-mail, Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org

As always, Asia is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, treated with flea medication and microchipped.

Maury and Pauly - Two Great Puppies!

Meet Maury (pictured above) and his buddy Pauly (pictured below). Maury is a four-month-old Boxer Mix. He currently weighs 24lbs - he'll be a big boy! He is 100% housetrained, will sit on command and uses his doggy door with ease. He's an absolute love and would make a great family pet.

Pauly is a two-month-old hound mix (we think hound/beagle but who knows?). He's just a baby and absolutely sweet as can be. I could play with those floppy ears all day!

To find out more information or to adopt one or both of these guys, please e-mail Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org.

More Adoptable Members Of Our Silly Dog Pack

Our Silly Dog Pack is packed to the gills with our silly furry friends. If anybody can lend a hand fostering/adopting or sponsoring these beauties please e-mail Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org.

It's been another busy week for Our Silly Dog Pack and K9 Safehouse. We've been rescuing so many dogs I can't even keep track. I'm even rescuing dogs in my sleep...when I do sleep. I'm so exhausted I feel like I've been run over by a bus. Thank goodness for our vacation next week.

OK, lets get to it and introduce another round of rescues:

We have Rhonda the Rhodesian Ridgeback mix, pictured above. She's 2 years old, 65lbs, HEALTHY (phew), and a sweet, sweet girl. She has been in a kennel with four other dogs and gets along famously with all of them. She's gorgeous and sure to make a great addition to any family.


Next up is Reid. Reid is a four-month-old baby lab puppy. He weighs in at 20lbs. He's a baby and like all of the babies that pass through here, he's super sweet, friendly, and full of that fun puppy energy. Labs are great dogs and we can never pass one up...hopefully you can't either.

Then we have Remi, another little lab baby. Remi is three months old and weighs in at 15 pounds. Again, she's a lab, she's a baby, and she's adorable! Reid and Remi would LOVE to go to a home together so if you have room in your home and heart for these two lovable pups please let me know!


Finally, we have Asia. Asia is a beautiful Husky/Shepherd mix. She is one-year-old, and 40 pounds. She is a happy, playful, agile, spry girl. She will keep you fit, active and on your toes. I love all dogs, but I am partial to the husky mixes. They are truly a blast! They have silly personalities and a lot of spunk. Adopt Asia before I have to keep her!

Please remember that all of our dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations!

If you are interested in adopting any of these dogs e-mail me. If you are not interested in these guys (because you're nuts) but are interested in a different age/breed/whatever, e-mail me. We can help! If you're unsure, try fostering -- we'll pay for the dog, you get to play with it! If you can't do any of these things but you want to help we are taking donations of all kinds: Money, food, treats, blankets, crates, etc. All donations are welcome. For any other info, e-mail! Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org.

One last thing: If there is anyone out there who can explain to me why I am having such a difficult time of posting photos to this site.....e-mail me, PLEASE.

Until next time....

Update: Nikko Is Adopted!

I have received an incredible amount of e-mails for Nikko, or "Tiny" as we like to call him. I'm happy to report that Nikko has been adopted and he is now living happily ever after. It's so nice to get photos of these guys being loved, living in their new homes. It's a great reprieve from the endless amount of sad, broken, lonely dogs we see on the euth list on a daily basis. We can't save them all, but it's nice to know we've made a difference for some... and it's that difference that keeps us going.

We're so happy for you, Nikko!



If you were interested in adopting Nikko please e-mail me at Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org, there are tons of other great little guys out there looking for their new forever homes.

Spaghetti and Beethoven

It has been such a busy week for Our Silly Dog Pack. We saved seven dogs from the euth list this week -- our biggest victory yet.

Earlier this week I posted these four: Stella, Bridgette, Horse and Marilyn.

Prior to that we posted a plea for Spaghetti. Her pull fees and transport were sponsored but still nobody would take her. I e-mailed and said I'd take her (pregnant), too.

Then there was Beethoven. He had rescue but his rescue group failed to pick him up. He was posted all over the place as URGENT. My little sister even begged me to save him. We pulled him, too.

Beethoven is a 7-Year-Old Border Collie/St. Bernard mix. He weighs 65 pounds and I'm told he's an absolute sweetheart. I will post more on Beethoven next week. If you are interested in adopting Beethoven, please e-mail Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org.

Thanks,

Liz

Coming Soon - New Adoptable Members of Our Silly Dog Pack

All of the following dogs have been recently rescued from a high kill shelter. They were all on the euth list.

This guy to the left is Horse. He's being called a Blue Tick Heeler -- but just like Nikko (previous post), you never know.

I fell in love with him on site. He looks like his head has been photo shopped onto his body, doesn't he? He was a staff favorite at the shelter and is described as a sweet, loyal, gentle goof who is good with everyone -- kids, grown-ups, cats and other dogs. He's up to date on shots, neutered, micro-chipped and weighs 65 pounds. What is not to love about this guy?

This baby on the right is a female black lab puppy named Bridgette. Not much to say about her except that she's a BABY. Everyone loves a baby and I'm sure this baby will love you right back. It's so sad to see her in this cage. I can't wait to see a photo of her in her future forever home!

This little heart breaker on the left is, Stella. Stella is a 4-month-old Border Collie. Who doesn't love a Border Collie? They do everything! Swimming, Hiking, Frisebee and they're SMART. Border Collies are like kids, but they're nicer to you and they don't talk back! Oh, and they're furry and will keep you warm in the winter. Stella is such a cutie pie. She is spayed, up to date on shots and micro-chipped. Lets get Stella out of this cage and into her new home!



This beauty here is Marilyn. Marilyn is an eleven month old shepherd mix. She is described as 'very friendly' and 'loves attention'. Who doesn't? Marilyn was turned into the kill shelter because her owners home burned down. We rescued Marilyn just in the nick of time and couldn't be happier that we did. Marilyn, like all of our dogs, is spayed, up to date on shots, and micro-chipped.

Please consider adopting a dog today!

If you can't adopt, please consider fostering. Fostering saves lives, too!!

Please direct inquires to Elizabeth@k9safehouse.org

Thanks for looking!

Urgent - Help Needed For Spaghetti

Spaghetti is on the infamous 'Red List' at the Greenville Shelter. She is a sweet, 2 year old, Pit/Lab mix who has been heartlessly dumped at a kill shelter -- and she's pregnant. You would think that being pregnant would save her from the Euth List for at least a little bit, but you'd be wrong. I emailed the shelter about ten minutes ago asking what the deal is with Spaghetti -- any potential rescues, etc? The response was simply, "Her time is up" and she will be "Put to sleep tomorrow morning".

You can help Spaghetti by pledging to donate any amount (even $5 helps) to a rescue that will take her or by fostering Spaghetti for a rescue group.

If you can help please email: Elizabeth@K9safehouse.org

Thanks!

Introducing Domino

Domino was rescued from a high kill shelter. She is a stunning, five-month-old puppy with beautiful coloring, long nose and adorable big perky ears. Domino is a sad case as it is obvious she has never truly been loved. She will melt your heart. She is skittish and afraid of people, but with a little patience and a lot of love you will slowly earn her trust. Domino lights up when another dog enters the room -- lights up in a way that I've never seen another dog light up - her eyes grow wide, she smiles and her tail starts wagging like crazy. She will follow the lead of other dogs so if you have another dog that would be helpful in earning her trust.

She has had such a short life but whatever happened, clearly it has had an impact on her. She is not growly or aggressive - just shy. It would be best for Domino to go to a home where there is at least one other dog and where the owners are committed to giving her the TLC she so desperately needs.

Other neat things about Domino:
*She is fast and agile and she has some 'herding' tendencies (circling the perimeter much like a herding dog) - perhaps she's a border collie mix?
*She likes to hide toys - I keep finding toy stashes all throughout my house
*She loves other dogs and doesn't bother with cats
*She loves rope toys and rawhide bones
*Many, Many, More...

Stay Tuned for more updates and 'Super Dog Stats'.

If you think you can give Domino the committed, loving home that she truly deserves please e-mail me. You'd truly be saving a life!
