Jack (formerly known as Rojo)

It's been almost a month since Jack bounced into our lives. The name Jack came about because he reminds me somewhat of a Jack Russell Terrier when seen from behind. He's already got a nickname of Bullet as he darts across the living room and jumps onto the couch without concern of stopping against the back of it.

He's pretty much potty-trained these days and that's a relief. Our other dog, Rupert, gets along with him quite well. Even though Rupert is 3 times the size of Jack, they love to play and nobody gets hurt.

I never thought I would get a dog this small but something about him when I saw him at a PUP event changed my mind. He fits right into the "pack" and loves to go for rides in the car now that the weather is cooler. Also likes to watch the ducks out back.

Jack's on schedule to be fully spoiled by Christmas. He's got a new collar, leash and a coat for when it gets too cold out.

Sophie our sweet mama dog

Our beloved senior dog Squirt had to be euthanized and our hearts were broken. Sophie came into our life the same day.We have had her almost a year, About 2 weeks later we adopted Vitamin who has three legs and suffered abuse. Sophie and Vitamin are inseperable and Vitamin lays on top of her she is a tiny chihuahua.. Sophie is like her mom. When Vitamin is tired she leans against Sophie. Both girls are from Ca.What a blessing they are to our life.The young boy in photo is our grandson with her. She has quite a personality and when she wants food she taps your arm.

Pink

From the first day we brought Pink home it was like she had already been a part of our family. Our mini Aussie doesn't approve of most, but we can't stop the two from playing all day long. We have never seen our Aussie happier. Pink is our spunky little linebacker as she finds blocking our Aussie from his ball and toys amusing. Pink's personality is "I can do anthinng better than you". To our suprise she loves to swim, and swims with our other dog all the time. She has added more joy to our little family then we could have ever imagined. She has become accustomed to many days at the Redmond dog park with her brother in which she loves to meet new friends. Our little family is so thankful for this little bundle of joy.

Augie Takes The Biscuit!

On a random Saturday at the end of August we found ourselves in an Issaquah pet store to look at a dogs up for adoption. I for one, felt a little overwhelmed at the vast number of four legged friends. After an hour or so, we left the store. When we were in the car, my 13 year old asked the question that would change our lives forever, "Did you guys see Augie?"
"Yes, yes, yes!!!!" shouted the seven year old...
The discussion continued until we got home and as we pulled into the drive, it was evident that Augie was THE ONE. So we turned the car around and went back. We were told though that Augie was already "pending" and we had to wait and see...
But on the following Sunday we were told that we could adopt Augie and make us his forever home! What a wonderful day that was!
We have not looked back since and can not imagine our lives without our new dog. We changed his name and he now goes by Sir Biscuit! He is super intelligent, extremely loveable and very very friendly. All these are only surpassed by his exteme level of super cuteness! Even our three cats are taken with him...
We love Sir Biscuit and would like to thank PUP for bringing him into our lives and changing it forever for the better!

Why Fiona Is The BEST!

We adpoted Fiona in August and we have sure grown to love our little girl! She is wonderful addition to our family and loves her big sister Lucy (and they look so much alike!) She has the most adorable bark, it almost sounds like a video game :o)

Fiona is very loyal and quite a cuddlebug. She likes to sleep right next her sister Lucy each night. She is doing well with housetraining and is venturing into the world of dog parks, although isn't so sure about them yet. Her favorite game is fetch and tug-o-war. It's hilarious to watch her hop through the grass to chase her toys. We are so happy we have her in our family!

Alia (Alicia)

It has been just one week since little Alia came to live with me and my dachshund, Huether, and in that time she has brought so much joy to our home. Okay, Huey was a little put out at first, but he's warmed up to her and her puppy antics.

We've made good progress on potty training, although we still have a ways to go with walkies on the leash.

Thanks so much to PUP for allowing me to adopt Alia; she's one big kibble bowl overflowing with cute.
