Lillie

It was meant to be!! Lillie joined our family January 2011 and she couldn't be a better fit! She is very smart and has this "drive" to her that we are looking to fulfill. She loves to play chase in the back yard with her big sister Jersey, and she has really taken to people watching during our car rides! She may play hard but she's not afraid to snuggle up and give lots of sweet puppy kisses. She impresses us everyday as she grows and learns. We love our little "Lillie Bean"!

In Memory of Miss Daisy

This is Miss Daisy. We adopted her early last year. She had been sent to the shelter because she was 10 and blind, her owners wanted her put down. She was an AMAZING dog. Daisy had a ball with a bell in it and was happy to go outside and retrieve that ball all afternoon if you let her. It was amazing to watch her find the ball! She was also a wonderful part of our family.

Unfortunately late in the summer, her back hips started failing. We worked closely with our vet to exhaust every avenue of treatment for Daisy. Our vet finally said we had done everything we could and that there was no magic cure for Daisy. Since that time we have had a hole in our family. We didn't have Daisy long but she surely enriched our lives.

I would encourage everyone to think about adopting seniors. Yes you do not have them as long, but they make wonderful additions to a family.

Miss Daisy...we miss you!

The Hartman Family

Bernie!

Here are my kids, Bernie and Mia! As you can see, they pretty much own the house. I adopted Bernie in November of 2008 from LOLIN. He quickly became best friends with his sister, Mia. They love play-fighting and can cause quite a racket! Bernie was the best addition to our family that we could have asked for! He loves his cuddle time with us, and he LOVES the snow! He had some trust issues when we first got him, but now he knows he is in his forever home and that we will never ever leave him! :) Thanks, LOLIN and Jean Mynderse :)
