Cody and Cassidy
-- Lee and Jan Robinson, Sandy, Utah
Cody:
Big, gorgeous, black boy. 75 lb. 2 1/2 years old. Listens really well, and is
still in "Where am I?" shock. Looks at me like I'm an alien. I can hear his
mind going, "Why is she hugging me? How come there is all this food available?
Which bed should I lay on now?"
Cassidy:
Petite, dark brindle girl. 53 lb. Very sweet and initially timid. She wags her
tail at me, but is sometimes shy to come over and get hugs. As each hour passes,
she's realizing she can't do anything wrong, and recently ran around the yard,
encouraging the other dogs to play.
July 1997
Nick
-- Karl Hahn, Las Vegas, Nevada
A
sweet fawn boy who wants nothing more than to just be - be in a world where
life is good. He made it to 14, when he decided that after Norma left, he had
to go be with her.
Norma
-- Karl Hahn, Las Vegas, Nevada
A sweet, brindle girl who will take her time to trust, but when
she trusts and love, she does so forever.
Honey
-- Michelle and Marco Garcia
Black with four white feet and a white ticked chest. 66 lb.
Very active and fun loving. Very young, so gets into things. She likes to put
stuff in her mouth, very curious about everything. Likes to be outside. Is a
guard dog and will bark a lot if she thinks she hears something. Very independent.
Will growl at other dogs and is bossy. Very territorial about her space and
her food. Adores kids, but is not cat safe.
August 1997
Foster -- Carla
Lescosky and Chris Brewer, Las Vegas, Nevada
70 lb., white with red brindle spots, sweet, and silent type.
Wags his tail and is interested in things, but is also very cool about being
too demonstrative too soon. Cat safe. Toe broken and healed sideways, so limps
at times.
Schuylkill
- Great Dane Extraordinaire
Rippen
-- Mary Lou and Harold Mountain, Las Vegas, Nevada
This petite little black girl is a squiggle of love. Very attentive
and sweet, she follows you with her helicopter tail going round and round. Loves
to sleep in the bed right next to you, gives you a big greeting when you come
home and will try any food you'd like her to. Cat safe. Came off the track with
a major flea allergy, so her hair and skin need time to heal and grow.
October 1997
Coco
-- MaryRose Sloan
Black female with white chest and two back paws. Very playful,
friendly and energetic. Loves kids and other dogs. A chewer, initially, because
she was insecure. She stopped though after two days. Wants to play all the time,
needs toys and chews and distractions.
Lacey
-- The Houges, Las Vegas, Nevada
Two-year-old, fawn brindle female with a big smile. She loves
to play, sleep on the couch and steal anything not tied down. Endearing and
fun, she barks, loves toys, will jump on you, is active in the morning, smiles,
and is really Ms. Personality. Her feelings get hurt very easily, so be careful
about reprimands. If she doesn't want to move, she won't and there's no telling
her anything else. Travels well in car. Cat safe.
Becky
-- Glenn Gamer, Las Vegas, Nevada
Gorgeous 2-year-old white-and-black female with boundless energy.
She just leaps and bounds all over the place, and doesn't like to stand still
for anything. Plays with toys and chews and will steal items and take them outside.
Very interested in everything, and is very smart, as she learned the doggie
door by herself. Very food oriented. Cat safe. Barks and makes snorty noises
like a horse. Travels well. Was scheduled for use as a terminal surgery dog
at CSU, but saved by vet student.
Lady
-- Carla Lescosky and Chris Brewer, Las Vegas, Nevada
Read
Lady's Story
Moon -- Pat and
Mary Jo Hultman, Las Vegas and now Wisconsin
Four-year-old, tall black boy. Currently quiet, he's just checking
everything out before he lets his true personality show -- which is sure to
be sweet and fun! He loves playing with and hoarding his toys and compressed
rawhide chews. Exudes a solid, secure, loving presence. Once he decides he's
safe, he'll be your best friend. Travels well in the car. Not cat safe.
Lady -- Frank and
Jean Mitrani, Las Vegas, Nevada
Five-year-old, red brindle female. She's a wiggle of love, who,
though initially hesitant when she meets strangers, will practically leap in
your arms to be loved once she feels safe. She's claimed the oversized chair
and ottoman and only leaves it if you can offer her something better. Cat safe.
Smiles. Wags her tail in helicopter fashion. Travels well.
November 1997
Forman
-- Sharon Townsend and George Fedleski, Pahrump, Nevada
Big, black male with white chest, white tipped feet and tail.
Very quiet, unassuming and sweet. Follows you everywhere, but is very innocuous
about it. Took a few days to wag his tail, and learn to relax in the car. But
he's the kind of guy who is going to do everything nice and slow and make sure
he can trust what he sees. Will bond very strongly once he trusts. Not cat safe.
Keno and Brin --
Delane and Al Williams
Keno:
70 lb. red brindle male. Cat safe. Initially hesitant, but very sweet. Looks
around as if taking it all in, and he can't believe it all. Listens well, comes
when you call. Chewed on a wooden table corner the first day. Loves to lay in
the kiddie pool and be outside. You have to lift him into the car.
Brin:
A very sweet, four-year-old, tiger brindle girl. Brin is interested in all around
her, though will be initially hesitant. She's used to being very spoiled, and
needs to lose a little weight. When she was two years old, Brin was rescued
when the Greyhound Adoption League overheard her trainer say she was going to
put her down because she had epilepsy. GAL said, "Let me check her out for a
few days". That trainer had been spraying flea spray directly in her ears, and
that was why she was shaking her head all the time. She did not have epilepsy.
The Greyhound Gang took her home the following day.
