Jake

We just adore Jake. A friend of mine took these pictures of Jake at agility class two weeks ago. Jake LOVES agility. He really likes all the contact equipment. The pictures aren't great but at least it gives you an idea of how cute he is. He does two agility classes a week. He is my husband's favorite dog of ours, even though we're not supposed to have favorites. His only issue is he's a little leary when strangers want to approach his head so I have started clicking and treating him everytime he lets a stranger in his space and he's doing much, much better. I took him to obedience every week right after we got him but it was the same place and the same people and this trait was never apparent. We don't have kids or people over and I took him other places once in a while but I guess not enough. Anyway, I am trying to work him through this and now he's overcoming it very quickly. Everyone says he looks like either a border collie or a flat coated retriever or a black golden retreiver. I'm not a picture taker myself. Don't own a camera or cell phone and don't facebook or twitter but I will get pictures taken at the shows and will send them to you. I did send you a Christmas sled picture right after we got him and a July 2009 professional picture that you acknowledged receiving. He's still the same size, 20" in height and 53 lbs. Thank you for fostering Jake. He's very much loved and adored and will be with us forever.

Chloe

Sophee is the best dog I've ever had and love her dearly.She's quite calm for her breed, and is very lovely. The neighbors always comment on how pretty a dog she is. She listens very well unless the neighbor's dogs are out. They have a Husky, a German Shephard and a humongous White Akita-who is Sophee's favorite. They're the same age but the Akitas were bread as Bear Killers and I can understand why. Sophee runs up to her and by the time she gets there, she's running almost upside down. When she arrives, she is totally upside down, feet up in the air, begging to be played with. We have to be careful because, the Akita doesn't realize her strength. We spend all day in the gardens, and she usually is by my side. I just wish I could keep her from digging. And dig, she does! She gets so hot, since her fur is long and black, and digs up my plants to make an area to keep cool. I guess I'll have to break down and have her clipped, soon. She just won't be as pretty but I bet she'll feel better. Sophee is jealous of my new grand daughter, Madelynn. She's really good but can't understand why we talk to her in the same tone of voice that we talk to the baby with!My 90 year old mother moved in last July, and Sophee just loves her to pieces. She lays outside her bedroom door and waits for her to get up in the morning. You can hear her tail thumping on the hallway walls, whenever Momma starts moving around. She's very protective of her. Neat....

Cooper

Cooper is doing well! He has such personality - he loves people and is quite the social puppy! Unfortunately, the cats don't particularly like "playing" with him, but they tolerate as much as they can. Princess (the white cat in a couple pictures) probably puts up with the most. As long as Cooper is relatively calm, she will share some space with him.

There are not words to describe the pain and emptiness you feel when you lose a pet. For me, it was the loss of my almost to be 15 yr old chocolate lab, Coco, whom I had literally grown up with. Having had a dog my entire life, it was heartbreaking and lonesome not having the companionship I was used to all my life. So, shortly after I started looking for a new dog, knowing that I wanted to rescue one that was in need of a forever home. So I took to petfinder.com which brought me to Savannah (now Myra). I cannot put into words the excitement and immediate love I felt for this little puppy the first time I saw her. She is one of the happiest and playful dogs I know. She loves to play fetch, especially with other dogs. Now that the weather is warming up, she spends most of her days outside, chasing birds and squirrels then naps in the sun. We are excited for summertime so she can experience swimming and the beach for the first time. She is very lovable and is always giving kisses. She is an absolute blessing and I could not have found a better dog to create new memories with. Thank you so much Worthy Tails for allowing her to become a part of our family.

Sampson

His favorite past time is chewing, anything, including our carpet, the lights outside that border my flower beds, books, and anything else he can get his teeth on when we are busy doing something else. And ever since we got him, he nurses on pillows and blankets. Even at 8 months, he still does it. We just got him neutured 2 weeks ago, and got his dew claws removed. He is doing great, and growing, growing, growing. He is already 70 pounds, and still has alot of skin to grow into. He loves to eat. Some of his favorite treats include ice cream, cheese, and pizza crusts . He is definitely part of the family, and is not spoiled at all (hahahaha).
