These are mostly repeat pics from the site from a few years back but always good.

This is Hershey - 5 year old mixed breed we rescued from the shelter in 2007 when she was about 2 months old. I can't tell you how much joy she has brought to our lives. I encourage anyone in need of a pet to visit your local shelter.

Last fall I returned from a short beach trip to find her with a back injury in her lot. I actually had noticed the signs that her back might be on the way out - a slight wimper or two when walking up a hill or steps in the week prior. Little did I know what would happen. When I found her she could not move her rear end. Took her in and found out she had a ruptured disc. Surgery was recommended asap for best chances. $4000, two months of crate rest, and supporting her rear end with a sling during supervised walks later, she's back to about 95% - likely will never be 100% again and is not allowed to do steps for life. She actually knows this. I'm just thankful she is very happy, does not seem to be in any pain and is able to live a normal life. I would spend the money again if I had to! Last pic, you can see where her back had to be shaved for surgery.

Here is Tango and Kalum Enjoying a nice day in the shade. Tango is an Alaskan Huskey and is 9 years old now his weight is around 200Lbs ( been on a diet from 7 months old ). There is no dog around that gives him a problem or the kids around him he is very protective of kid's and cat's. But he realy hates the moose that lives behind the house and puts the run on him every once in a while.

He replaced the Beagle Luke when he went. I have to admit we only had him for 4-5 years and he was a pain in the ***.




Prior to these guys we had three dogs as once....These guys were some crew together. I took these three pictures one day within 30 seconds of each other....each picture perfectly captured their personalities.


Max....also a 11th hour rescure dog...definitely beaten by a male in his past....this dog would hide behind my wife if I even looked at him for at least the first 6 months we had him....over the years he forgot the past but was always a momma's boy and my wifes favorite.




Sam....just a big ol' happy go lucky dumb dog....





This was Jeffrey ....the Alpha dog of the pack by a mile....by far the smartest dog i have ever known. As he got older Sam used to try and challenge him but he never gave it up....outlasted all of them....figured he must have been around 17 when he went or maybe older.

This is Bootsie aka BooBoo my 13 year old blue tick beagle. I have had her since she was a puppy and she is really my best friend. She enjoys riding in the boat, on the atv, and in my truck. She don't care for my car too much.

Yes I remember that, glad Hershey is doing well!
