Emmy

I want to share what an absolute delight Kobi has been. She is such the little person with a very expressive personality and is such a little cuddler (especially in the mornings). I work from home and she is my little helper either in my chair curled up behind me or in her bed right beside my desk. She brings such joy to my life on a daily basis I would send you ALL of the pictures we’ve taken of Kobi but you don’t have enough disk space to hold themJ I’ve attached a recent picture taken during a few days vacation on KY Lake as well as some others. As you can tell, she’s very photogenic;) Thanks so much for the wonderful work you all do for these animals. It’s a true ministry and one that I’m so proud to have supported and will continue to support.

Mia

I call her "Queen of the Tundra --- A voice from the past - but- I did want to give you an update on Sable (a.k.a. Mia). As you may remember, I moved to Puvirnituq in the arctic almost exactly one year ago. At that time, I made a pact with Sable that where ever I go, she goes! She is totally amazing and has adapted very well to the tundra and arctic conditions. She made tons of friends with the huskies that roam around - in fact, they often wait at the bottom of my steps for her to come out and play!!! The Inuit do not consider dogs as pets and there fore the dogs up there never are allowed inside houses - poor things often never even have shelter except under houses!! But, they love Sable and she loves them! They of course are better adapted to -60F weather but she would never let me put on her coat that I bought her...lol...she would sit and look at me as if to say 'you must be joking - I am NOT going out in that thing"...so out she would go "au nature"l - she quickly learned that if you keep running, you stay warm. On the worst days she did not stay out long tho!!!! When I come back to Montreal, she comes also.....she is a real trooper about flying now and knows the routine well. She continues to be in excellent health and in top shape as you can see from the photo. Buda, the Husky in the photo, is one of her best friends. Buda is one of the lucky huskies that was adopted by a colleague of mine as a pup.......he is a wonderful animal and pet!!! We often drive out to the tundra and they can run loose for hours! I am loving the adventure that I am on - my work is both exciting and challenging and for those long , cold winter nights, I love the company of Sable. She continues to be a endless soutce of joy for me... Knowing how much you care for all of your "babies", thought you might like the update....love from Jane and Sable

Sophie

I am passing along some more photos of our little sweetheart. She got groomed today. The groomer couldn't get the clippers anywhere near her face so she scissored it the best she could. She feels that after she works with her a few times she will get easier to work with. We try to socialize her to being handled and, of course, loved she will be able to do a more thorough job. I think she is a little darling myself....and she smells sooooo good. Now Sophie has been hibernating in her crate a bit this afternoon but she ran in the yard some and ate so I think she just got tired. She loves to be up on the hill in our backyard looking down on the patio. I didn't "force" her to pose so we just got a few candid shots. Hope you like her new "do".

Bella

AUGUST 10, 2010 Miss Bella, the one & only Basically, I adore this dog. If you know her (and are not allergic to dogs), you probably do too. You should, anyway. Bella is one of a kind. Here is our story. Bella's most favorite place ever.. under the zebra bench. It all started when my status changed from intern to full-time employee, and I knew I could actually afford a pet. I dreamed about it day and night. Finally, this desire got the better of me. I worked out a pro/con list in every angle and thought about what I wanted in an indoor pet that will be with me forever. Girl... 50 pounds or less... Sweet-tempered... Intelligent... No obvious health conditions... At least two years old (NOT a puppy) I searched the Internet for places to look and wrote down information about two or three to visit on a Saturday. February 27, 2010 I went looking. The first place I went only had puppies and only a few. I fell in love with one of the little girls. But I stuck to my guns and walked out without her. Then I trucked all the way across Nashville to the Petco in Bellevue for an adoption event held by Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue. I got there a little before they technically opened and chatted with some of the folks setting up. And then I saw Bella First glimpse of my angel Precious. Sweet. Black and White. Small. Girl. Two years old. "Can I take her home with me today??" I really did walk away and think about what I might be about to do. Then I filled out the application and talked with the head lady. She approved me. Yay!! I bought some neccessities, and Miss Bella and I went home. Bella had been rescued only a week before that Saturday when I found her. One of the Petco employees happened to be in the right place at the right time and took her away from some boys who were hitting her with sticks. Just thinking about that makes me angry. How could someone do that to such a sweet, submissive dog? She was shy for a little while, but we have gotten used to each other. Today we are very happy together. I love Miss Bella with all my heart and am so thankful to Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue and that Petco employee who brought her into my life. A wise man regards the life of his beast. Proverbs 12:10 After getting spayed, wearing the cone of shame Just smiling cause she's happy

Banjo

Banjo is doing great. He now has a fine covering of hair all over his body that is slowly growing thicker. Much different than the bare little puppy he was! He's enrolled in a puppy class and is becoming quite the little gentleman (he has since graduated). He's totally spoiled just like his brother and sisters and spends his evenings getting treats and playing with his favorite toys.
