1 Year of Fun with Scooter

My husband, our papillon Mandy and I are all celebrating our 1st Anniversary of adopting Scooter! The love and joy he's brought to all of us is unbelievable. He's filled our home with more laughter and fun that we imagined a little guy could.
Scooter was fostered by Heather, Casey and their dog Major. He was so well adjusted when he came home last year that he just fit right in. Thanks to Heather, Casey & Major for caring for him until we came along.
Scooter has had a lot of adventures since he joined our family - he loves sailing, camping and the beach. He adores his big sister, loves to practice escaping from the fenced yard and mostly he has charmed everyone by falling asleep in their arms.
People can never believe anyone could give up Scooter - we are grateful everyday that someone did so we could love him.
PUPS - thank you so much for caring for him until we came along.
Cheers,
Steve, Lisa, Mandy & SCOOTER!

Luigi

Luigi has been with us less than a week, and his final name (after a few tries!) is Raymond. He has adjusted to his new life quite easily, and is happy to spend time sleeping in his new bed, or hanging out with his brother, Junior. Raymond is happy to go on long walks most days, and enjoys the occasional treat of salmon or bacon! Raymond had a checkup at the vet and is feeling good. He is quite energetic and enjoys playing with Junior. Raymond is a great addition to our family, and fits in perfectly!

Tasha

My name is Taffy Red Cloud Wahlin and I am the newest member to the family. I was called Tasha before,but after a short time in my new home, it got changed.My Momy says Taffy because I am little,and sweet and Red Cloud because of my coloring and even though I am small, I have the heart of a warrior. My favorite things are playing fetch,riding in cars,and running really fast through the house past my Mom when she pretends she is going to catch me.There is a siamese type cat here that I am afraid of but there is also a big orange cat and I like him because he's very laid back and never jumps out at me. One day I went on a hike and 2 other people came and there was another little dog.we liked each other alot and it was really fun because there were all these new things to smell and see. My Mom is married to Ron the Marine.I am not sure what that means but he is nice to me,even though he has his own dog that he likes best.Oh, I almost forgot to tell you how I got here! I starte
d out in california and belonged to a young lady who was nice but she carried me all the time and I never got to run around.then somehow I ended up in a big house with lots of people coming and going but my lady was not there and no one really paid attention to me.Then I ended up in a "shelter" and that was really scary.there were lots of other dogs there,upset,confused and making lots of noises. Then,now here comes the good part,I went in a long car ride to washington because of an org. called PEOPLE UNITED FOR PETS and they helped me find my forever home. I stayed with a nice foster family who took good care of me while I waited for the right person.And now here I am,very happy and so glad to be here.

Reggie is definitely part of the family! :)

We adopted Reggie two years ago in October. He has adapted well to our family and to our other pets as well. He spends every night in bed with mom and dad and is loved unconditionally. We couldn't have asked for a better dog! he is comfortable no matter where he is.

LOVE Bonus

I adopted 'Rambo' in April of this year and I'm completely crazy about him! I first shortened his name to Bo and later changed it to Bonus because he has been such a bonus to my life. He is a joy to be around and he brightens the day of everyone he meets. Thank you PUP for connecting the two of us!
