Azabache: There is no update from BARC. He is not listed among the living, the extended, or the dead.

Zane: There is no update on Zane. Like Azabache, he is not listed among the living, the extended, or the dead.

Keep in mind that Saturday is usually the deadliest day of the week. I am not expecting any extensions over the long weekend, so this Saturday will be deadlier than most if folks don't step up this morning for these dogs.

I usually post the photos of the lost but today I am posting the photos of all the extended dogs on the list. I wanted to do all, extended or new, but there isn't time.

Puppies also started fighting during feeding, may need to be separated. Once their new kennel was clean I entered kennel to move them; they were all scurrying around trying to hide, growling but able to pick up one by one to move over.

When carrying sibling didn't realize the cage didn't latch all the way and Cage followed behind us with wagging tail, went into new kennel as I was setting down sibling.

5/3 Euth req | Aust. cattle dog Mix | Neutered Male| 2Y | 54lbs | HW+high

πŸ’œ Volunteer Notes:

Look I have a type and it’s catahoula/Shep mixes and they haven’t let me down once. Choco was laying so calmly on his bed in loud ward that I immediately had flash backs to two of my favorites (Dusty & Ryker). He is calm, stoic, walks like a dream on a leash, and plays a little hard to get. That doesn’t stop me though, I don’t mind working for some affection. He let me scratch him and kiss all over his snoot while he calmly swished his tail back and forth. He was playful on his temp test with another male shep but was a little unsure of how to interact with a menace of a puppy so he just minded his business and kept going! I love choco so much and I hope his person will stumble upon this and love him too. His ACT also said he was pretty perfect πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

πŸ’œ Volunteer Notes

I met Lucy in October and she was one of my favorites to think she was failed again and now is in this situation with so many babies makes me sick to my stomach. These are the horror stories the shelter is trying to prevent and yet it happened anyways.

October 2024: I love Lucy. I'm not talking about the show I'm talking about this perfect puppers. She knows how to put on the charm that's for sure. Anyone that greets her gets the same sweet greeting where she gives a smile and looks all cute. She was easy to leash and didn't have any problem walking by any of the dogs. She played with a pup in the run and loved running back and forth. She enjoys belly rubs and playing which is the perfect package in my opinion. She knows how to relax and knows how to have fun. I saw several people have her out today and every time they brought her back she just would relax in her kennel. She's so quiet! I'm surprised no one has snatched this girl up yet.

πŸ“ Shelter Notes:

October 2024

Approaching kennel, dog was sitting down in the front. I opened the door and she then pancaked, keeping her head low.

I placed the leash but dog remained in potion so I then slowly entered and got behind her, as I was picking her up I could hear that she was softly crying. I carried her outside the kennel and then placed her on floor. As I was petting and baby talking her, she wagged her tail and looked at me with soft eyes. As I was petting her head, she would gently close her eyes and lick her lips, and get closer to my legs. After spending a minute with her, she followed me and walked loosely with a wagging tail. She occasionally would freeze and look at me with soft eyes and a wagging tail, I had to baby talk and pet her again for her to continue walking. While outside, I squatted down again and she quickly came forward to sit next to me. While petting her outside, she got on her back with tummy up and was enjoying the belly rubs with closed eyes and a smile.

Coming back inside, she walked with a more relaxed body. After placing her in kennel, I closed the door and then started to pet her through door. She sat in placed licking her lips and closing her eyes in comfort as I petted her head. She was super and friendly towards me,

In the afternoon I was able to take her outside so she could have more outside time and adjust to the outside setting since in the morning she was a bit timid. Again, she slowly walked on the leash and needed a lot of encouragement to walk. She often pulled back but I was able to redirect her with with baby talk and pets. She ignored treats and baby talk seemed to be working better with her. When coming back inside she walked on a loose leash, still occasionally stopping. Again, responding super well to being pet, loves the attention.

dog was laying down and when i approched dog had whale eyes and as i got closer dog had lowered head down and as i opened the kennel door wider for dog to get out she pancaked and i had to carry out and carry to next kennel.

spoke to potential adopter about her delay in surgery due to URI. Was told that we had noticed that she was limping and upon looking at the radiographs on her RF there was a healing fracture. She was told that she would be going home on carprofen and doxy for her to give at home. She still wanted to move forward with the adoption.
