Mugsy

mugsyThank you CPR for helping my mom (Shannon) find my big brother! Mugsy and I are best friends. He follows mom around everywhere and I keep an eye on them both! Even though he is a bit slower than I am, I always look out for him to make sure he is ok and keeping up. He loves to eat and snuggle. You should see how fast he jogs now!! He amazes me and my mom everyday how appreciative and happy he is to be a part of our family.

Thanks again!

Leo

leoLeo is the best “PUG” ever.

He’s the cutest & the funniest.

He is loved, healthy & happy & will stay that way for the rest of his life.

Here in this house…
I will never know the loneliness I hear in the barks of the other dogs “out there”.
I can sleep soundly, assured that when I wake my world will not have changed.
I will never know hunger, or the fear of not knowing if I’ll eat.
I will not shiver in the cold, or grow weary from the heat. I will feel the sun’s heat & the rain’s coolness,
& be allowed to smell all that can reach my nose.

Here in this house…
There will be an effort to communicate to me on my level. I will be talked to, & even if I don’t understand, I can enjoy the warmth of the words.
My name will be used in joy & I will love the sound of it.

Here in this house…
I will be loved because I am who I am, different yet equal my sister.
I will never suffer for someone’s anger, impatience or stupidity.
I will be taught all the things I need to know to be loved by all.

Here in this house…
I can trust the arms that hold, hands that touch…knowing that, no matter what they do, they do it for the good of me.

Here in this house…
If I’m ill, I will be doctored.
If I’m scared, I will be calmed.
If I’m sad, I will be cheered.
No matter what I look like I will be considered beautiful, & known to be of greatest value.
I will never be cast out because I’m too old, too ill, too unruly, or not cute enough. My life is a responsibility, & not an afterthought.

Here in this house…I will belong. I am home.

Athena

athenaI was a little apprehensive about receiving a rescued dog. Previously I had raised my dogs from a puppy.  Athena is great. After the 1st couple of hissy fits by the cats and a responding growl by Athena things were fine. We had a little talk with Athena and close supervision, everything was fine.  I have friendly cats and within a day they were wandering near Athena and sitting on her blanket.  Now its almost as if she has always been here. We walk, she loves the back yard, she comes over for a pat. While walking and another person comes up, I have her sit to the side ‘till the person goes by. She is so sweet and wants to please.  I love her. A great dog.
