Thay call me scout now. I have learned to anser to it alreddy! Thay say I am a smart boy------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Norton (renamed scout by our children) is having a wonderful time and is settling in very well. He is showing good progress in housetraining and is very eager to please and learn other commands (we almost have "sit"). He started out very timid but is quickly gaining confidence and getting more rowdy while maintaining his sweet temperament. He is becoming a very good citizen and a fun new family member! Thanks, Brent

Buster Brown

We wanted to give you a very happy update on Buster Brown, D090369, renamed BUDDY TEBOW CLARK, adopted on 6/27/09. He is absolutely the most wonderful little dog. We are so thankful we were able to share our home and our love with this little fellow. In the 14 months we have had him, he has learned what we expect of him, and he knows he can count on us to give him the care he deserves. Every time we think how close he came to being put down in Missouri, it pains us. We know there are thousands of excellent animals that do not escape that fate. Thank you, again, for the work you do--the work that has brought such joy into our little home in the form of a bundle of energy wearing a beautiful red coat.

Buddy

Hi Lavonne, I see you are still at it, working hard as ever to rescue as many poor lost animals as possible. God bless you. I hope you remember Buddy and me. I tracked you down to your home and then to Petco on 3/12008 to adopt my Buddy. He was a sorry sight to see. You had just rescued him from a shelter in Germantown, Tn, on Thursday he had been scheduled to the death chamber on Friday and I adopted him on Saturday. He has been a wonderful addition to our family. Our grandchildren adore him,(we have 6 grand and 2 great) as he does them . Even our youngest at 14 months. Sometimes we have to rescue Buddy from her great demonstration of love. But true to his gentle nature he will sit still until we help him. I am attaching a new picture so you can see our happy boy. My husband that didn't want a dog would now trade me for Buddy. Again thanks for all you do , have done and will do for the lost animals, and especially thank you for my precious Buddy.

Eve

Hello to all the wonderful folks at Proverbs1210, I wanted to give you all an update on our two wonderful dogs we adopted in July, Eve (now, Evie) and her puppy Emma (now Wilma). Evie and Wilma ("The Girls" as we call them) have settled in nicely in the month and 1/2 they have been with us. We weren't completely sure what it might be like to have two dogs at once but it has turned out brilliantly. They are truly sweet dogs with such nice and friendly dispositions. Wilma, the puppy, has become much more adventurous and will amble out on her own away from her mother quite willingly now. She loves to chew (Kleenex is a particular favorite) and to pounce; she's an amazing jumper. Evie wants nothing more than to either lounge in the chair or to have one of the humans pet her. When she wags her tail, her entire body undulates, she's so thrilled. We have recently added outings to the dog park to our weekly schedule and there The Girls are learning to interact with other dogs while they all run and run and run. It's great fun to watch them play and run with abandon with huge smiles on their faces. At night, they curl up between us on the bed, often maneuvering for as much real estate as possible. Good thing we have a big bed! All that to say, we couldn't be happier with our new dog companions. They bring us such joy after the sorrow of losing Gracie (our 13 year old dog who died at the beginning of June) and we are very thankful to Proverbs for keeping them safe until it was our time to find them. We feel very lucky. Thank you for all you do!
