Caregiver Destiny reports:
These two girls enjoyed getting to use a new (to them) park today. We had a power outage in both hospitals so Pinky and Lucy get to hang out in the Super T along with the other Hospital 1 doggies. Most of the dogs are scared of new places but these girls were nothing but excited to explore this new place and enjoy the cool air conditioner. They are such little characters and they have the cutest little faces, you can’t help but love them.

Caregiver Ronnie reports:
15 year old Rudy hasn't been himself lately. Growing older weakens muscles, depletes energy and triggers new pains that once weren’t there. With each passing day this becomes more evident, his daily adventures to the park (which he loves) sometimes becomes challenging but Mr. Rudy is a trooper. He pushes through and happily returns to his bed inside Hospital 1.

Caregiver Destiny reports:
Oh sweet boy Dash. I love this puppy with all I have, if I could take him he would be mine in a heartbeat. He deserves a loving family with lots of time because he is a special boy. His eyesight is not the best and he can’t hear a thing but he is perfectly capable of snuggles and playing like a “normal” puppy. Neither of these things slow him down at all and he’s the sweetest little fluff ball ever.

Hello Straydog friends! It’s me, Annie, fka Miss B (Bitey). Just wanted to check in quick since it’s been almost one year since I found my “furever” home. I’ve been spoiled rotten during this year - kinda feel like I hit the doggie lottery. I have found my calling as an indoor dog - I really only like to go outside to do my business or go for a walk! (And trust me when I say I know where ALL the bunnies and squirrels are in the neighborhood!)

Mom still works from home so my sister Bogey and I are fortunate to get to snooze in our beds all day while knowing someone is always around. Every now and then I feel the need to pop in and say hello to Mom, though....just because I can.

I think I’ve grown very attached to my mom and dad and I don’t really like it when we have company. I don’t warm up very quickly. I keep my distance. But mom says maybe I am just afraid someone is going to take me away. I warm up eventually - just takes awhile.

I have big news - Mom and Dad said we are moving to AZ so Bogey and I are going to be desert dogs. As long as they have rabbits or other varmints to chase, I don’t care where we live.

Since I will be moving soon, Mom said she might bring me to the Clear the Shelters event in Rockwall this weekend if any of my old Straydog friends will be there that would remember me.

I want to say thank you again for taking such good care of me for the four years I lived at Straydog, and thank you for letting Mike and Wendy adopt me and make me a part of their family. I’m one happy pup! Maybe see you on Saturday!

Tail wags,
Annie

Caregiver Chelsea reports:
Poor Luna, she was not enjoying her park time at all today. The non-stop rain had everyone a little on edge but she seemed far more afraid than the rest of the dogs. I let her go back to her kennel early after a few back and forth trips from my lap to the gate.

Caregiver Chelsea reports:
After the rains from the previous day some dogs were a little extra needy. Raphael is pretty much always one of those guys. I couldn't even take a step into his kennel before he was right there between my feet demanding my full attention.

Caregiver Chelsea reports:
Happy forfeited the majority of his play time in the park to hang out with me. I tried to get him to play but he just wasn't having it today. All he wanted to do was lean against me and give me his notoriously sloppy kisses.

Caregiver Ronnie reports:
“Peek-a-boo I see you” says Dash. He's a very energetic and playful pup just like his sister Dawn who recently was adopted. Being completely deaf has no impact on his personality and adds no disadvantages to his everyday routine. He's full of life and enjoying everything around him from the toys in his crate to his time outside, even to the point of total exhaustion.
