Rusty is for Adoption!

Rusty is not fostering with me, but he is with my friend and fellow Turtle Gardens foster mom!

Rusty is a 2.5-3year old Shepherd cross who was brought to Turtle Gardens when his family had to move and could not take him with them.

He is currently at a foster home with a big doggy brother to play with! He loves other dogs, but can get a bit excitable when on leash - but some well timed pepperoni can quickly work wonders ;)

He is good with dogs, people, kids, and even lived with a cat before.
He is a big softy and lovable guy! - Isn't his pink nose just so adorable! :)

He loves to go on hikes, and long walks and even rollerblading! He also LOVES the water! :)

His foster mom has worked wonders on his on and off leash training, and other aspects of basic training too!

He is just an all-around wonderful pup who has come a long way since being in his awesome foster home, and is looking for a wonderful family who can help polish him off and make him shine!


You can visit his foster moms blog HERE to view recent updates!

 You can visit his petfinder page HERE



What do you mean it's too shallow to swim? I'll just lie in it then!




Waiting for his forever home - Is it you?

PAC Agility Trial

This was Rikki and my's first every official Trial! At least competing in one - I have volunteered at them.

She did SOOOO well! I made the only mistake (and cost us 1st place) in gamblers, but that's okay! I am happy for our 4th, and the fact that it was so close is very cool!

We had a clear round and Q'd in Jumpers! :D And We got a 2nd place ribbon too! :) (Would have had first place, but there was a border collie there who was 6 seconds faster lol!)

You can view the video in HD by clicking on the YouTube button, and then on the little gear in the bottom right corner of the YouTube video and clicking 720p (HD)

I will be fostering dogs again in a few weeks! :)

But in the meantime enjoy!

And I have also posted some new videos on my youtube page! HERE

Enjoy!
