Introducing Daisy

Daisy1.jpg

This is Daisy, we just rescued her from Homeward Trails which is a wonderful rescue group. Daisy is mixed Dachshund/ Beagle. She's very sweet and has been a total angel to get to know. She was found roaming the streets of rural North Carolina and picked up. She had tags so the owner was called. The owner would not pay to pick her up so she wound up with a rescue league (thankfully as the alternative would have been euthanasia). She's 3 years old and the calmest dog I've known. She's almost zen like in her personality. She's a happy little thing that loves scratches and cookies. When we adopted her she had no idea of people speaking to her, I would have thought she was deaf she was so unresponsive to voice except I would see her listening to other sounds. Thanks to using organic chicken hotdogs, some basic training, good walkies and affection Daisy is now coming when called, knows her name and has a few commands under her belt. All in just over a week!!! such a smart girl. I can't recomend adopting highly enough. There are so many wonderful pets just waiting for a home.

In memory of The Boo

He loved his mommy and he wanted to be a good boy. We adopted him at 7 and a half and had him 6 wonderful years. Unfortunately he developed prostate cancer and deteriorated quickly. We gave him the very best care and when it was too much allowed him to leave this world peacefully. I will always love him.
