Last month was a good month in that almost as many dogs and cats went out the door as came in.   We even had more dogs that were lost and returned to their owners than were adopted.  The reunions of lost pets and their owners are nice to watch and I appreciate that we are able to be a part of that.   The lost pet is so happy to see their family, tails wagging or lots of meowing going on, and no idea that someone had to pay for their miserable time spent at the shelter.   No yard to run around in or couch to lay on, and the noise, good grief, the noise is terrifying!   Yes, please – take me home!

I really enjoy the different breeds that show up here.   Last month, we had everything from A to Z, big to small come in the front door.   Several small breeds showed up, a silky terrier and two adorable but loud beagle puppies included.   The extra-large breeds included a St. Bernard and a Great Dane mix who came in needing a place to go.  What is really sad to see though, is an animal that comes from a not so good place.  We had one such dog come in this month, absolutely terrified of everyone and everything.  After almost five weeks of socializing and working with her, we have finally been able to put a harness on and take her for a walk.   One small step at a time and she is getting better.   I’m thankful that we are here and can provide a safe place while she learns it’s not such a bad world after all. 

Please help support our work providing shelter and care for the lost and homeless animals in Pawnee County.  We are dependent on and thankful for your kindness and generosity.

Since we adopted Dougherty, we have had nothing but fun with him. He is progressing far better than we could have imagined and love him dearly.
He is definitely in his Forever Home and much has been accomplished with him.
He loves to go for rides in our vehicles, he loves to play ball with us now which he didn't for the first two weeks and is so very funny to watch him fetch it due to all of his movements. He jumps at the ball in so many ways that, all I can say is that at times, my sides ache from laughing so hard.
He has been getting along very well with our two kittens, nearly grown now and they rub noses all the time while our kittens love chasing his tail. And, he has put on right at four pounds since we got him.
He is also off of his leash and we can trust him to be outside without us being there with him.
We wish to Thank You very much for letting me see him while I was there, returning Leroy. And, Shane did an excellent job of training this guy.
Oh, and the way he prances while he trots, he does so like he is some kind of royalty which we get a big kick out of. He holds his head high and curls his tail up while doing his trot.
He is a Super dog to us and exactly what we wanted in a companion. He is not our pet but a family member now.
One final word about him is that he is highly intelligent, more so than any other dog I have seen in years. Even though I am thoroughly convinced that he would make a superb bird dog, I will not train him to hunt. He is our family member and we intend to keep him safe from all things. We also introduced him to our Vet and their office personnel earlier this week and they fell in love with him too. There were other dogs inside while we were there and he was very friendly to them. We are amazed at his demeanor and personality. He is a very loving dog.
Thank You very much and please let Shane know that I appreciate his training quality. I will never forget him and wish him well. He is a good man, just made a bad choice in life which I am sure he will overcome fully.

Best Regards and Best Wishes,
