I hope everyone enjoyed the last long weekend of the summer. I know the weather wasn't the best in a lot of areas, but there is something about that last long weekend that makes you want to kick up your feet and enjoy, no matter what the weather.

We had a great visit with one of our boys this weekend. He arrived on Friday with his little puppy in tow. It turned into quite an exciting and eventful weekend. LOL The little guy had my big dogs running for cover and my smaller ones completely wound up. 

Here is a picture of our Tegra, who after numerous warnings to STOP DIGGING IN HER YARD... she finally had to take action. She gave little Duke a complete talking to and, as you can see... he FINALLY got the message (-:

But I have saved the best news for last!!! 

We are THRILLED to announce that our beautiful girl Willow has found her forever home. She went to meet her potential family on Saturday and we heard from Willow that she... TOTALLY APPROVES of her new family !!! (-: It was love at first sight, not just for Willow, but her anxiously awaiting family. 

Willow will be going home on Wednesday to a very excited and happy family. We know that Willow is also very excited about the big day.... she is finally going home!! Woohooo!!! I am sure we will get lots of pictures and updates and will pass them along as we get them.

Congratulations to Willow and her new family from all of us at ANML-RESQ.

Peanut Recovery Update 

We end the week with an update from our girl Peanut. She is recovering nicely from her spay surgery and seems has fallen right back into the routine of "family life". What a girl!! She is such a doll...everyone that meets her falls in love. Here is an update from Peanut's foster mom, Allie...

Me again...

Thanks everyone for your well wishes for Peanut. I think I may have been more upset at the loss of the pups than Peanut was. Although it is sad, in my opinion, it is best, as there is a huge overpopulation of pets. However, I was afraid that Peanut would come back depressed at the loss of her pups. I was wrong. Maybe she didn't even know yet. She is the same happy goofy dog she was when she left. Maybe even a little more goofy now :) Everyone in the pack is back together again and it is as if Brie and Little Man know that there is no rough play with her for a few days. They all said hello but no one got rambunctious as they usually do. As I sit and write this update they are all laying quietly in their own little spot, enjoying each others company. Time after time it amazes me the wonderful dogs we get from such terrible places. Peanut is well on her way to a great forever life!

Our Wilma is also recovering nicely from her emergency surgery. Her stitches will be removed today, much to foster mom's relief (and Wilma's too). Wilma is back to her usual laid-back, cuddly self and we are thrilled she made it through this life threatening situation.

Have a GREAT LONG WEEKEND everyone!! Drive safe and enjoy the last long weekend before kids go back to school.

Introducing Malana

Introducing our newest adoptable - Malana!! This girl is a true couch potato, her favourite pastime is snuggling. Malana is good with larger dogs, but has a high prey-drive... so small dogs and cats are a no-no for her. 

She has no aggression towards people whatsoever, no food or possession.  An all around good dog who needs to find a "responsible" owner. The Argentine Dogo is a fairly rare breed, we don't often hear of them.  Here is a link to tell you a bit more about them and what kind of owner we are looking for [dogbreedinfo.com/dogo.htm].

Malana is a 2.5 year old, pure-bred Argentine Dogo. She is a lovely dog and companion who would like nothing more then to curl up on your lap in your favorite chair, despite her size which she occasionally forgets sometimes. She is friendly with other large dogs and plays nicely. She has very good table manners and is very smart and obedient. Malana loves going for her walks and does leaps and bounds at the sight of her leash. Her current family saved her from a hard life outside but is unable to provide for her long term. 

She needs to find a forever family that can show her love and respect the way she deserves it, can you help? Because of her size and strength we will not be accepting applications from families with small dogs, cats or young children. Malana is spayed, up to date on shots and clean in the house. Please contact us today for more information, or to fill out an application please visit furkidsrescue.ca. Welcome Malana!!

Peanut Update

Our young girl Peanut went to the vet's yesterday to be spayed. We were all so happy that she was finally being altered ... no longer would she have to bare puppies. We know of one litter she has had - Riley being a product of that litter.  It is very possible she has had more litters in her short life.

You could not imagine our shock when we found out today (while Peanut had undergone spay) that she was once again pregnant. What???  So soon after having a litter? Her puppies were only 10 weeks old? Sadly, no one had any idea she was pregnant. She was vaccinated about 10 days prior which very likely would have caused severe health issues, if not death for her puppies, had they come to maturity. 

However, we hope that Peanut's story will help to convince people to PLEASE spay or neuter your pets. Animals (both dogs and cats) that are allowed to roam free in an unaltered state will mate often in a year. This only brings about unwanted litters, often mothers raising their young on the streets, foraging for food. This is not a life for a dog.

For Peanut, her new life started yesterday. We promised Peanut ... 'no more babies for you! You are still a baby yourself.  You should be enjoying life in a home where you are loved and will want for nothing. Our second promise to you will be to find you that home!!!'

Peanut will be going home today to a very anxious foster mom!!  All of us at ANML-RESQ wish you a speedy recovery Peanut!

I thought you might enjoy reading this interesting article from KC Blog ... some very interesting findings!!
