Hi Joy, Just wanted to send you a few pictures and let you know Thompson is doing GREAT at his new home! The girls love him and he had a fabulous Christmas with his new family. He is a spunky, fun, and sweet dog.

Just an update on Toby. He is doing great and has fit in with my Golden and Lab. I think my Golden and him are the same age. He loves it here and you can see he has grown a wonderful coat for our cold winters here in Calgary Alberta. We love him and he is very happy. He is such a joyous little guy. |

Hi Joy, Here's Bella (formerly Reese) with her "big brother" Tanner. We just can't get over how sweet and well-behaved she is! We had all of our extended family over for Christmas, and everybody just loved her. We'll send more pics once she has filled out a little. :) Thanks
again! Sara P.S. What a small
world?I was at my friend Dara's house yesterday, and I found out that her
new dog is also a rescue dog from GARD!! |

(when she's older I'll send them to you). Rosalie

Hi Joy, Happy Holidays to
you and your family!! I hope your holidays were filled with joy and
happiness. As you can see by
the pictures Murphy is doing very well. He has been part of our family for
almost 2 months now and we love him so much. He loves everybody and is so
sweet. Remember how skinny he was? Well his first trip to the vet he
weighed in at 23 lbs and he is now 31!!! He looks wonderful !! He loves to
eat and has filled out so nicely. He loves to play and has so many toys
but his favorites are the ones that squeek!! He also will steel your
slippers if you don't have them on! He loves to go in the car and for
walks. Walks are a bit tough right now with this winter weather in NY. He
didn't really like the snow in the beginning but he really didn't have a
chose. That white stuff is here for a few more months. I sent you a few
recent pictures. As you can see Murphy loves sleeping with my youngest
son, Kyle!! They didn't even know I took the picture. He is still a
"scardy cat"and is afraid of a lot of things but we are working on that
with him. I hope you have a Happy and Healthy New Year. Thank you for
saving such a sweet dog! Chris, Murphy and the entire Snyder Family |

I'm a sweet Georgia Girl, I wished upon a star and found out that dreams do come true. I am told that my original owners, from Georgia could not afford me so surrendered me to a place that destroys dogs that they cannot find homes for. Lucky for me a nice lady from GARD, a rescue foundation in Georgia that has a no kill policy rescued me before I met a terrible demise. I was sent to Canada to a rescue foundation that helps out because there is so much poverty where I come from that people aren't able to adopt homeless animals such as myself. I was adopted by some people that didn't understand me and weren't able to give me time to adjust into my new home when I displayed behavior that they weren't willing to work with. I once again found myself in a Shelter waiting for my forever home. Like I mentioned at the beginning of my story dreams to come true. There are no more broken promises in my life. I now live in a home that has more than enough love to go around. I live with two other canine companions, two cats that refuse to run from me, a bunny and two guinea pigs that give me what for if I get my nose to close. I am still wary of men but am getting more confidence almost daily. I listen really well to my people and have good recall. My mom says I play nice with the other dogs at the dog park. In the spring my boy,(the one who saved his money and rescued me), says he is taking me to agility...not sure what that is but it sounds like fun I can hardly wait. Thank you to all the angels that worked so hard to see that I found my forever home. There is a special place in heaven for all of you. Love, Your Little Duck Tooler Daisy AKA Georgia |

We wanted to let you know that Whiskey(Keebler) has settled in nicely. The 1st few days were a little dicey, but he is a LUV and has already learned sit, off, down, and lots of leave its!! He is great with my norwhich, and not so good with my cat!! The first time he saw a horse he barked for 10 min straight, but now they are just part of the back yard. The snow is great entertainment, good thing cause theres more on the way! thanks for our dog. we appreciate all your hard work. jim and kerry p. |

Hello ? we recently adopted one of the little Chihuahua puppies and thought you would like to see her picture. This is Tori Moon. She is doing very well, and getting along well with our other dogs. Thanks again for saving the animals. Debbie H. |

Hi, Joy; I have renamed Travis to Nicholas (Nicky) and he is settling in well ay my home on the Vineyard after two days at my girlfriend's house in Newton, MA. He has been well behaved, playful with Tuxedo, and passed the toddler test on the ferry last night. He is sitting at my feet right now, and has a Vet appointment this afternoon. No chewing issues (so far), though he does have counter surfing tendencies. He is a sweet, lovely dog. He and Tuxedo have regular play sessions. What can I say, he is even better than Tux on a leash. How anyone could bear to give him up is beyond my understanding.... Rick H. |

Jonesy (aka Theo) is coming along nicely since we
adopted him in August. Still a tad timid, but just the sweetest, cutest
dog ever-as you can see! Merry Christmas, Nancy Whitaker |

Hi Friends at GARD, I just wanted to send you this Christmas picture of Logan (aka Dash) that we adopted back in March and let you know that he is doing extremely well. I can?t believe he will be one year old this month. We feel so blessed to have him as part of our family. He is a confident, friendly pup and very funny too. He loves people, plays nicely with other dogs and even likes cats. I think he shows great potential for doing therapy work in nursing homes and hospitals in the future. We hope your rescue work is going well and wish you the best in the coming year. Have a Merry Christmas! Sincerely, Lisa S. Gainesville, FL |

Hi Auntie Joy, I wanted to let you know that I'm still doing great in my home. It took a little while but I can really be myself now and I'm a crazy little boy. I play with my toys all the time, and usually bring five or six of them on the couch at one time. I get so excited about every little thing because I'm so happy. My mommies must really love me because they are always kissing and hugging me, scratching my back and especially scratching my ears, I love that!!!!!! I hope you like the pictures. I love to pose for pictures!!!!! One is with my two brothers, Pablo (Pabi) and Benito (Benny). (My real name is Miguel, Mikey is my nickname.) The other is just with Benny, and of course I had to send one of me in my Christmas tie. I hope you and everyone at GARD have a wonderful Christmas. My mommies will be sending a check soon for a donation for the holidays. Thanks again for saving me, you are wonderful!!!! Love, Mikey . |

Just a note to let you all know that Sara just passed
and got her Canine Good Citizen Certificate, at The Potter League
for Animals, our local shelter. She was in a group of 5 dogs and did very
well. Next its the Pet Therapy Certification. I have already brought both
mastiffs into Nursing Homes. I am so proud of her. Rose

Hi Joy, I wanted to
take the time to give you an update on my new baby Remy (latte). After making
the long ride from GA to CT Remy was a little tired and received some much
needed TLC. I am absolutely in love with her! She is such a ball of energy
during the day and a cuddle bug at night I absolutely love her kisses! She fits right
in with our family and walks well on her leash. She enjoys all the new
toys I have spoiled her with. Remy says
"thankyou for everything you did for me. I am very happy to have my
forever home." |

Good Morning! I keep meaning to get updated pictures of Tinka Tank (our "little" brindle boxer mix), but every time I turn around she's grown again. Tank is now up to 20 pounds and getting along great with Keesha, our cocker spaniel. They both have a grooming appointment on Tuesday the 7th, Tank doesn't need it, but I think it will be a good learning experience for her. She's been great with our pool training, she will only come as close as the concert walk way and will not venture any closer. We're very proud that she's learned this so fast, mainly for safety! She's learning to sit, unless it's time to eat (we're still working on patience) and we are working on laying down and staying (I think stay is a little advance for a puppy... so we're taking that easy). We'll be scheduling her spay shortly... I'm thinking maybe late July time frame, since Brent will be on leave and can "baby" her constantly once she's home from the spay. All and all (now that she's having less accedence in the house ;-).) She's a great dog and we thank you so much for allowing us to adopt her. Thank you again! ~Brie Aubrie A. P. OD, LT 4 BCT S4 |
