Don't forget the ongoing work at Tejas:
Nicole Joncas from Tejas Rescue has been working for years to have this particular puppy mill shut down. Nicole has my deepest respect as I know how hard this fight has been for her. She has never given up and you can tell she is very driven and determined to end the misery of these innocent animals. I have placed Nicole's open letter here for you to read and spread the word for these innocent animals who can't speak for themselves - God bless you Nicole! To read her open letter ...>

Mink Update

"Mink has been in our household for 10 months. she has one eye due to earlier abuse, most likely at a puppy mill. She is some character! She makes all sorts of grunts and groans, she sure is a comedian! Mink does has one eye and under bite and fangs but i wouldn't change her one bit! True she's not a cute little puppy but she has the friendliest attitude and a puppy spirit! she likes long walks and loves to play with her blue squeaky ball. she can do many tricks- high five, sit, shake paw lions cub (where she jumps up and wraps her arms around my arm like a lion cub) roll over and will learn more as she just started some Pet Smart training lessons! Shes come along way from sitting alone in pain on a street where nobody cared. But now shes a happy spoiled little dog! shes recently taken up whining when we leave the house and don't take her, so as her cute puppy dog face is usuly hard to ignore she goes for more walks now! lol i love her sooo much and wouldn't trade her for the world. i'd like to thank everybody who has helped her in some way exspecially her foster mom Sharon." ~ Holly

Young Volunteers

There is nothing more heartwarming than when we hear from younger people looking for ways to help us.

Holly [see above] joins our other two young rescuers, Alex and Noah [occasionally] and we hope to have many more young rescuers in the making join us.

These dedicated young people will be starting their own blog to keep us informed on what they are doing in and around the communities they live in. We will let you know when they get their blog started.

Ask Sassy

Dear Sassy: What is the best way to get a large breed, excited dog to walk on leash without pulling?

Dear Allie:

Thanks for your question. It's one that we are asked a lot. The best accessory on the market to help with an unruly dog on walks, whether they are big or small, is the GENTLE LEADER. My mom swears by it. Of course, she never needed to use one for me, but some of my siblings aren't as good as I am (-:

The gentle leader works similar to a horse's halter. Mom says if you can control the head, you control the entire body. And it is so true. That's why a child can lead a horse around. Mom made sure she learned how to properly use the gentle leader, because if not used correctly, you CAN hurt your dog.

Also, if you have a large breed, TRY to find the gentle leader that is secured like a regular flat collar. The snap/clip on leaders can and do break. For more information about the gentle leader http://www.gentleleadercanada.com/products.htm.
