She is the sweetest girl in the world and now has the happiest eyes. We think she is our gift from heaven for all the hard work we did in caring for Bart.

My blog is dedicated to the effort to popularize the adoption of rescue dogs everywhere. These are dogs that have often been neglected and even abused and are so deserving of a second chance to do what dogs do best - bring joy and unconditional love and devotion to a home of their own.
If you would like to help get this award denied to Michael Vick, visit this post:
But what about DOG etiquette? What is proper or expected? What is considered "socially acceptable" for dogs? For example, is it better to leave your dog at home? How do you prepare for a visit? What are tips to deal with the ride? If you are taking a pet with you, what do you do when you arrive?
I have a great article that will help answer those questions and help you to prepare your dog for the holidays! For some great tips, go to: Dog Etiquette for the Holidays
She wasn't skinny as so many lonely dogs and cats are, she was a heavy weight. It seems that the local business's were leaving delightful food items out for her. A kind lady tried coaxing her into the building, but she was street wise, so to speak.
I got a live animal trap and set it out with a pile of burger and meatballs. The next day the call came, "She's in the trap!" I got her and the trap into my garage and covered it with a blanket. It took this scared lady 3 days to finally inch her way out to eat and urinate. I have had luck with dog whisper techniques so when she finally came out we kept on going...right on into the house and into our established pack. She became Ginger and from then on she has bonded to my other 2 rescues, Buddy, an unwanted lop eared Border Collie and a sweet Border Collie, Elle.
Thanks to them Ginger was able to learn basic commands. Ginger made it off of Main St. and into my heart. It's time for her to move on to her forever home. She is listed on Petfinder and she will be a wonderful addition to a lucky family.

Each time a contribution is made to the ASPCA, the donator helps homeless, abused or neglected pets in every state.

I shut off my engine and went back to get him. How could I resist that adorable face and those huge ears. He's been a great addition to my family and I am forever grateful to all of the wonderful rescue organizations out there. If you're looking for a pet, please go check out some shelters. There are many great dogs looking for a great home!
