It’s been a busy month over here, so we wanted to share a few updates on everyone!
Riot has been absolutely thriving in her new “job” as a therapy dog at the Children’s Hospital! She loves visiting with the kids and is always on her best behavior. Watching her bring smiles and comfort to the children, their families, and the staff has been so rewarding. We couldn’t be more proud of her!
Poppy is now 7 months old and weighs just 30 pounds! She’s becoming such a confident little girl. Fireworks, busy public places, settling quietly, and learning her manners! She’s incredibly smart, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for her! Poppy is looking for her perfect guardian home, but she will remain with us until then!
Boone (formerly Colin) was returned to us through no fault of his own, and we’ve decided to keep him in our program! Our hope is to pair him with Rumor or Secret in the future. We recently completed his genetic testing along with his Preliminary OFA hip and elbow evaluations, and we’re thrilled to announce that he received an EXCELLENT rating on his hips and normal elbows! We’re so excited to watch this handsome boy continue to mature! Boone is living with the girls BFF Louie and they love being brothers!
Riot and Lady competed in their very first dock diving competition! Lady earned 1st place in her wave with an impressive 15-foot jump, and Riot took 3rd place in her wave with an 11-foot jump! Even more importantly, both girls handled the excitement of the event beautifully. Between the barking dogs, cheering crowds, and all the commotion, they stayed calm, focused, and showed exactly why temperament means so much to us!
And lastly, here’s a sweet little picture of Roxy and Poppy supporting one of our good friends and her adorable flower truck! 🌸🐾 We love getting out in the community and supporting our friends!
We’re so proud of all of our girls (and boy) and can’t wait to see what adventures are next month!
