Riley (Oscar) update

Hello,

I just wanted to write and let you know how lucky we are to have adopted Riley.

(You knew him as Oscar.)

 

Riley has been a great dog!! It took some time for him to relax into the routine of the house but he is doing great. We took him to basic training through AOCB. The class taught us more than it taught him!

 

Riley has been so much fun this summer. We have been out every weekend this summer camping, hiking, kayaking, and boating. We started the summer at Lake Chelan and it just might have been the first time he saw water. He was very unsure and unwilling to fetch in the water. Over the weeks he grew to enjoy the water and is now swimming. I have attached one of the kayaking pictures of a recent trip to Orcas Island.

 

Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity to adopt Riley. It has been an amazing adventure!!

Update on Dolce

Hi Homeward Pet!

I just wanted to give you a quick update on Dolce (formally Daisy).  She is a super sweet 2 year old torbie who had a litter of kittens.  I found her at Homeward Pet in the middle of May. 
 
When I found her at Homeward Pet I connected with her immediately and knew she was the perfect kitty for me.  She had a rough first week (she was sick), she is doing great now! 
 
She is an only kitty and gets tons of love.  She sleeps with me every night and is always cuddling on my lap or by my feet.  It's so nice to come home to my baby every night.  Thank you so much for doing what you do!  I would have my sweet baby if it weren't for you!

Our happy kittens!

We adopted our precious 'kittens' a little over a year ago, so they're not quite so small anymore, but they continue to brighten our lives every day.  Notice Peyton, the calico's, 'thumbs'.  And Archie, the orange tabby, is a real love!

 

Dodger the Cat!

Here are pixs of our boy for the wall of fame. He was “T.C” with you, but has been re-named Dodger. He had a rocky start health-wise, but is now vibrant and well. He loves his forever-home!

Dodger Update!



 
Dodger is relaxed and happy, he visited the vet this morning and is healthy except for a little nervous tummy, which is pretty normal.
He is super comfortable with me, and is getting better with Don, still tentative during the day, but likes to sleep cuddled up to Don, I guess he likes him better when he is asleep.
Jim was right, Dodger has blossomed in just 36 hours. One of these pics is him playing in the pool with our neighbors 1 year old beagle / border Collie mix. They LOVE each other and run like maniacs! Max is good for about 5 minutes of running and then likes to lay down for a bit. He is not a big fan of the heat.
I will try to send a video of him playing tug of war, you won't believe it is the same dog!
Thanks for all you do for our furry friends!
 

Update on "Clyde" aka Harley McNubbin

Here are some pictures of "Clyde" ... we have named him Harley and giving him the loving last name of McNubbin since that little nub of a tail is pretty darn cute and one of his great characteristics. He has been a really great puppy, a few accidents here and there but for the most part he is really enjoying all the space to run and explore and doing a great job of learning the ropes. He has an outdoor kennel (12' l x 8' w x 6' t) that he loves to hang out in laying on his outdoor bed, listening to all the action going on our 2 acres. He is getting along great with my daughter Macey who is almost 5, they are bonding really well. He is learning to walk on a leash, and we are introducing him to the water too. The 5 year old rotweiler/lab mix next door has really taken to him and is almost playing surrogate mother, it is very sweet. We have signed up for the puppy orientation class at Rivendale on Aug 1 and he has been to his first vet check up ... we'll be going again to update shots etc. He did great on the 4th of July, we had him at a block party and he was the star, until the fireworks display started then we put him in his crate and in the house, he didn't howl or whine, good sign! He has become a very loved part of the family.
