FurrButt Friday!

Let me introduce you to this week's Featured Adoptable FurrButt, "Chile"!

She is believed to be a Rat Terrier / Italian Greyhound / Mixed (short coat) and is about 2 years old.

Here is her info from her webpage:

Chile is a darling little girl who we found in a kill shelter in PA after she had been found wandering the streets of Philly. She was dirty, very thin, and very scared!
Now she is doing much better and is ready for a new family. She is 7.8lbs, approximately 2yrs old and has been vetted!! She does very well in her crate as long as shes taken out every few hours (tiny dogs have tiny bladders you know).
She is still timid in new situations and because of this and her size, we will NOT be placing her in a home with very young children. She does fine with other animals of ALL sizes.

"Chile is very affectionate, very playful..loves to run around the yard like a windup toy...fine with other dogs and cats...loves loves loves attention."




OK so here is my view of Miss Chile!
First let me say that I typically am not a fan of the small breed dogs, I love me some bulk! :)
I was prepared for a shaky little thing that would be difficult to take pictures of. But I actually really like this little girl! Even though she was a bit nervous and didn't like the camera much she is SUPER sweet and you can just see that she want's Furrever bad!
She is very curious and even though content to sit in a lap, want's to play and explore. So even though she had a rough start she is not completely fearful of the world.
She is dainty but solid for her size, she is just a real neat little dog and
I have to say I am very surprised that she has not been adopted!

Her ears are so stinkin cute!!


Agh another moment that I love to be able to talk about because I also have this thought that all little dogs are "crazy lickers" but she is content to just sniff and give a little love :) at least from what I saw.

FurrButt Friday! Calling all Hound Lovers!

This weeks adoptable FurrButt is Julianna a GORGEOUS Pure Red Bone Coonhound. She currently resides with Lost and Found Dog Rescue and is hoping to find her furrever home.

Pictures do NO justice for this babe, she is amazingly beautiful, has those soulful hound eyes and velvet ears.

She is a Submissive female and if you know anything about hounds she will want to spend much of her time on the couch with her head in your lap!

Julianna's nose is always in the air as you can see and she is a very tall girl, the combination of these two things almost guarantees that she will attempt to scale a 6 foot fence if given the chance. She must have a Pet Stop fence system in place to keep her safe. You can not expect a hound NOT to follow their nose!

Have you ever heard a Dog, Bay? Well that's what hounds do! To me it is a wonderful sound and much preferred over a bark, when they Bay it is with purpose, never just because.



Pretty smile!


Eyes that you could fall into, almost human!

FurrButt Friday!

Featured FurrButt!

I have decided that every Friday will be FurrButt Friday! I will feature one Wonderfully Adoptable Baby with their information, my personal opinion based on the time I spent with them and a collection of images so you can see for yourself!

Meet Felicity!

In my hour or so with her, I fell in love so I have decided to feature her for so many reasons but mostly because she IS the perfect "Active Family" dog and she needs a family!

This is from her web page, "Felicity is an awesome girl that came to rescue with her newborns. They are grown and gone now and its time for Felicity to find her furrever family. She is about 18months old and still very much a playful puppy. She loves to run in the yard and can make a toy out of anything she finds!! She does very well in her crate and is working hard on leash training. She would do best as an only dog, simply because she plays very rough...its all tackle for this girl..no flag football here. She would make an outstanding jogging partner."

(But I watched her completely submit to 2 very small playful dogs and I photographed it! But safety first, she is a strong girl!)

This is what I saw,
The moment I met her she was in my face, giving kisses, trying to get in my lap and the tail going a mile a minute!
You could almost hear her say, "OHHH a new person!!! Let me kiss you, let me smell you, I want to play with you!!!!" A bundle of energy that greeted each and every person, big or small, that exact same way!
When I think of the perfect Family for her I think she needs her own Boy! An active Boy that will wrestle with her, run with her, throw a ball for hours with her, teach her all kinds of cool tricks and let her sleep in his bed! A boy to be her brother and her best friend in the world!
(This is just my opinion)

Felicity IS what all Pittie lovers call a Pit Bull! You see there is no true "Pit Bull" this name includes many breeds and breed mixes, the Pit Bull has no "guaranteed" appearance. Many Pittie lovers know that a Pittie is based mostly on Personality traits, ALL of which is pouring out of every inch of this beautiful girl! A great place to learn about the history and Personality traits is to visit BadRap.org a wonderful Group in California.


Anyway just see for yourself!


A People Pleaser, People LOVER, Child Lover, Eye contact that goes for days, Curious, Interested and Ready!



If you are interested in a Pittie PLEASE have experience or do your homework, BE a responsible Dog Owner and Adopt!
