To Whom It May Concern

Dear Future Family,

Are you out there?

I have been looking for you for since the July but I can't find you. I am a good girl, trying my very hardest to learn new things from my foster mom and the added bonus is that I am housetrained. I play well with others but also love to have some alone time in my crate. I would love to meet you. I love my foster family but I need to move on to my own home so that they can help someone else like me. I promise to love you, come when called and do my very best to be the best dog that I can be. I will be waiting for you so please come and find me soon.

With Love and lots of Hope,

Tucker

This handsome fellow is Tucker, a one year old Lab Cross, who was found wandering on the outskirts of the city.

His foster mom says he is a great dog to have around and is learning what a good life is all about. He listens well and even after a few days respond to his name when called, even off leash. He is learning to play with other dogs, cats, toys and does well when meeting new dogs. He is a bit shy of men at this point but once he meets them and gets a few pets he warms right up.

Tucker will be neutered shortly, has all of his shots up to date, microchipped and is eagerly awaiting a home of his own.

The Felines

Last week, I posted about the situation in Medicine Hat. To catch you all up, there was a cat hoarding situation that involved about 117 cats/kittens in a single home. Due to the amount of cats and the plea for help, PDCR agreed to help and we took in 7 beautiful cats last week.

Introducing:

Sapphire - Has been Adopted

She is a 3 year old Calico Himalayan. She is very sweet, puffy fur, but only 3 kgs. She is petite and so soft.

Tawny - Has Been Adopted

This cutie is an Exotic Short Hair. She has short hair and such a cute pushed in face. She is about the shyest of the bunch but coming around quicky in her foster home.

Nikko - NIKKO HAS BEEN ADOPTED

He is also an Exotic Short Hair, his face is pushed in. He is only 4 months old. His foster homes says he is wildy playful and super cuddly.

Kali

She is a beautiful Flame Point Himalayan X. She is about 11 months old. She too is somewhat shy, but already wandering around her foster home, meowing when she feels lonely. She likes to roll on the carpet to get attention.

Holdin - HOLDIN HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!

I've been telling my kids to 'stop holdin' the kitten'.....the kitten is now Holdin. He is an adorable 5-6 month old Blue Point Himalayan X Siamese. He is super cuddly, brave, and loves to snuggle on the bed.

and Fiona

Fiona is a very sweet Flame Point Exotic Short Hair. She is about 2 years old and also very sweet with a shy exterior. Her foster home reports that she too is getting more and more comfortable each day.


These cats were all kept in sheds according to age and breed. Their socialization with people was non-existant. They are all a bit shy when it comes to cuddles as they haven't ever recieved alot of physical attention before. But, being cats, they come with alot of curiosity and sometimes that does get the better of them! They find themselves wandering around their nice, warm foster homes and soon enough, they are urged to rub themselves on a pair of legs and allow the person to pet and cuddle them. They are all finding this strangly wonderful! Lets see these beautiful cats into new homes where they will adjust and fit right in.










**The cats were kept in very dirty conditions, they had alot of dust in their eyes and nasal passages. That is all clearing out now, but in some of the pictures, you may notice a bit of eye/nose gunk, the dust is what is causing that and isn't a 'condition' that will last forever or cause future problems. They have all been checked by our vet and cleared.**

Boxer-Dogge

This is Lexi, she is very smiley.

She was turned over to us when her owner was forced to move, or give up the dog. Lexi is a big wiggle butt! She is happy and very well behaved. She really reminds me of Vince, a dog we had last year.

Lexi is 9 months old and she is a Boxer X Old English Bulldogge. She has the body size and shape of a Boxer, with the extra jiggle of a Bulldog! She is a little unsure of herself, she has never really been taught anything, so she does come off as needy, but after a few days she calms down and starts to relax.

She is playful and gets along great with other dogs of anysize. She would be a great family dog too as she is very caution and gentle with small kids. She is also cat smart!

TONIGHT!!!

Dog Walk is on, hope to see you all there!!

Just a reminder it runs from 6:30pm to 7:30pm at Gyro Park.
