Meet Chloe 24951

This is Chloe. I rescued her from the Orange County Animal Shelter on 9/10/11, along with her brother Jiggs. They are both 13 months old. They were turned into the shelter because their owners could not afford even the most basic of vet care, including any shots, spay or neuter.

As a result, we suspect Chloe is 5 weeks pregnant. This was likely her first time in heat, and she was likely impregnated by her own brother. She is only 8 pounds, so she will probably need a C-section in order to survive labor.

Please, please, please spay and neuter your pets.

Know me: Know my foster dog

Prince is my foster dog. He is a 6 year old red Miniature Pinscher, weighing in at about 6 pounds. We have been fostering him since November, 2009. He has dry eye. This infection has caused very limited sight in his left eye and next to zero sight in his right eye. To care for this he simply requires eye drops and gel a few times a day, which he is pretty good about taking. We are looking for a home for him that will have someone at home most of the time, and without small children. He is a smart dog, but skittish. We think he was kept in a cage most of his life and never learned how to be a dog. He still plays with you by gnawing on you like a puppy would. He loves to be in your lap, asleep. He even has his own Facebook page!



These lovely photos were taken by a britton photography - I love her too!

Know Me: Know my dogs

Larry and I are owned by two dogs: Nikki & Tammy

Nikki is a Miniature Pinscher. She will be 11 in August, 2010. We rescued her in September 2005 from IMPS. She was at our wedding, but not in our wedding. She used to be more than a little aggressive, particularly towards strangers. But she has mellowed out in her old age.

Tammy is a long-haired miniature Dachshund. She will be 5 in October, 2010. We volunteered to foster her for Lost Dog and Cat Rescue in November 2007, and after having her at home for about an hour Larry asked me "can we keep her?" Tammy is conniving. If she wants to be in your lap, and Nikki is there already, she will squeak Nikki's favorite ball, and when Nikki goes running for the ball, Tammy hops into your lap, happy as a clam.
