Can't tell you how happy I am about how the dogs are getting along. Dash is just a big ol' lap dog and totally puppy. He and Major lay around the floor when we're home and play and wrestle (something my wife and I had never imagined). Thanks for all of your help and I will keep you up to date with his progress. We start obedience training in 2 weeks.

All is well so far with both Major and Dash. We picked up an extra large crate which he is doing very well with. We took them for a walk yesterday and they seem to be getting along very well.


A special thank you goes out to Cisco's sponsor: S. Blaho

Adopted August 2005

Cisco was a 1-2 year old, neutered, male, black/tan, German Shepherd Dog. He was 77 pounds and extremely underweight. This big guy needed a home that had good home cooking. Cisco wasn't too interested in his photo session, though he was much perkier under playful circumstances. This giant boy would be an easy 100 pounds (probably larger) when he filled out his tall frame. Therefore, he needed a home with room and some brute strength. He was gentle and loving and very, very sweet and playful, but he was big.
