Here's a shot of Miss Inky, in a Justin-Trudeau-esque moment of political incorrectness, making fun of all the Gumbys out there (kind of a gangsta Gumby).

Oldgixxer · 03-05-2020, 02:54 PM

Miss Inky appears not to give AF,and is not amused by the do-rag lmao!

Maynard · 03-05-2020, 04:22 PM

Yes, that's a good description of her general personality; and this is about as tolerant as she gets for costumes.

Here's Finn. He's a 3-year old Shetland Sheepdog, although a very big one at that (42 lbs!), more of a Minature Collie than anything, and he's very much a drama queen in some ways. Incredibly smart, but so smart that he chooses when to actually listen

We really aren't sure which pup is Onslow. Going by his personality, he must be one of the front two (probably the one with the ears down)!

PS: Onslow @ 8 weeks, with mom & aunt.

Some pics of Bella our female rescue Pit.
When we first saw her she had several burns on her hind quarters where someone put cigarettes out on her. We took her home on the spot,with the stipulation that as long as my 3 males accepted her into the pack we would keep her. Well,she fit right in so she's been with us since '15.

I honestly feel that when you rescue a dog/animal they know that you saved them from a horrible life and you're giving them the best possible care and love they could get. And they appreciate it and pay it back in spades. She has to be the most charismatic dog we've ever had and has an amazing personality.

When she first came home,she let me know it's time to eat by grabbing her bowl and bringing it to me. When she had enough pics for the day,she hides her face w her paws lol. Love that lil girl!

That is awesome. Hearing of animal abuse makes my blood boil.

One of our cats was found in a bag on the side of the road.

Seeing something like that would bring my bad side out in a split second, and I don't think I would be able to control myself.

I don't remember you post any pictures of him here. Is he not handsome enough in your opinion or does he mind his privacy?

Lol....he's a "holy terror". Hard to grab a picture as he is always into something.

Here is a quick cell pic....so low quality. He's the black and white one. Both of these are rescues.

My sister used to run the local chapter of the Humane Society and currently runs another rescue about 45 mins away in Grand Rapids - on behalf of all of us THANK YOU FOR ADOPTING! Bella is beautiful!

Adopt, don't shop. So many wonderful pets that need homes....

It was a very busy weekend with the new puppy. He is adapting very well and doing great. The girls were so excited to meet and play with him.
