Nugget

Friday, March 5, 2005

 

Boy, am I excited!!  Beth, my new mom, came to visit me at my foster home.  She immediately fell in love with me.  You see she loves BIG shelties and I am a big 52 pound boy.   Here's what she wrote:  Ours is a four-sheltie home.  As much as our hearts ache for Little Rex, I still reach for four bowls every morning for breakfast.  Luckily, Nugget agreed to come live with us and be a brother to Desmond, Molly Jones and Carmel.  He is probably going to be known as "Quinn", but we are pretty sure he won't care what we call him as long as he gets his share of Greenies, and Meaty Bones, not to mention, tummy rubs and chances to "do ball".  He is lucky Sheltie Rescue cares about him enough to give him a new home, and we are lucky Sheltie Rescue thinks enough of us to let us adopt this gorgeous Sheltie-boy.  We are four again, and - if not complete - at least on the way.

P.S.  I am the big boy on the right

 

Sydney

Sydney came into rescue with his sister, Ayla.  They were 9 years old and well adjusted shelties.  Their previous owner was unable to give them the time they deserved.  His foster mom writes:  Sydney is a very sweet, practically perfect in every way, older Sheltie who has found his forever home.  His foster family misses him a lot but they know he'll have a very happy life.  Sydney was following his new mom around his new home within the first 20 minutes of meeting her and who could forget playing ball!!  He also had fun showing his new dad how much he loves to play ball.  Congratulations Sydney!!! We all miss you.

 

Ayla

Hi!  I am Ayla, the cute big girl on the right.  Here I am with my new forever family.  I have a Mom and Dad (Nan and Paul) and two big sisters (Amanda and Allison), a special little sheltie sister (Shelby) and our brother (Quincey) who lives with my new Grandparents and visits us frequently.  I also have a new Aunt that likes to babysit us and even has us come for sleepovers!

I am having a great time and adjusting well in my new home.  I recently got the courage to climb up the stairs and just the other day jumped up on to my parents' bed.

I get so much attention from everyone but I am especially a mama's girl.  I spend all of my day playing with Shelby, Quincey, Amanda and Allison.  My family is going to start teaching me and Shelby sign language so that when we are older and can't hear as well, they will still be able to tell us what good girls we are.  We are all very happy and blessed.

 

Taz

Saturday, April 2, 2005

 

Taz is a sweet, 16 pound, nearly two year old sheltie boy.  His previous owners feared for his safety and they called Sheltie Rescue.  It was sad for them but they knew he would be safe.  Dave and Debbie have been waiting for a small female sheltie to share their home.  When they met Taz they decided he should go home with them.  Maybe someday they will adopt a sister for Taz. Taz loves being the main attraction and that he will be with Dave and Debbie.   His foster family misses this little lovable guy.

 

Gordon

Sir Gordon Thomas of IN aka Gordon and now nick named Gordy by his new parents is one happy, spunky, energetic sheltie boy. Weighing only 14 pounds he manages to go everywhere.  He now shares his new home with a"Big" sister, Tiara.  Joe and Kathy adopted her 2 months before Gordy.   His new family tells us that he loves his new home and sent Sheltie Rescue a big "thank you" for Gordy.  He even likes the cat in his new home.   Gordy says he is the little guy on his mom's lap.
