Scout is a 3 year old female boxer who loves to go to the dog park and be outdoors! She can run for hours and this was her first trip to the ocean. She loves all of her toys and playing soccer with her tennis ball. She is very loyal, and although she loves to run with other dogs, she always runs back to check in. She's a lover not a fighter.

Wonderful and gorgeous Odie--intent on tracking the tennis ball. Odie is a Catahoula x, adopted from the Mendocino Animal Care Services shelter in Ukiah. Odie is athletic, sensitive and goofy. He LOVES playing chuck it with ONLY special squeaky tennis balls.

Little dog, BIG NAME. Little dog, BIG, HUGE personality. Who said Parson Russells were small? Tinkerton was found wandering the western hills of Ukiah, and taken to the Mendocino Animal Care Services Shelter. A volunteer there saw him and fell in love, took him home to foster, and could not let him go. He was adopted, got his Canine Good Citizen award, took agility and obedience classes, and now is adept at chasing tennis balls and hunting moles in the backyard. He's EVERYTHING a Russell should be!

Fianna is one of God’s angles who arrived here on earth in the form of an Irish Wolfhound. She came into my life when she was twelve weeks old and has now blessed my life for four years. I have been around dogs my entire life yet I have never seen one who possesses her intuitiveness, wisdom and kindness.

The Morning After. . .
