Page 8 March 6, 2014 Pets Without Partners Purrrfect Companions Large or small, adopt a “pet without a partner” and give a homeless pet a second chance in life. Pebbles was intercepted along with her brother as their family was dropping them off at the shelter. We were told she is a Mastiff/American Bulldog mix. Pebbles is a very sweet and playful puppy who was born November 30, 2013. She gets along with all other dogs and loves children. She has discovered toys and love to toss them up in the air and run and chase them. Pebbles will make a great addition to any family that loves large-breed dogs and has time to spend properly training her. Pebbles will be spayed, is current on vaccinations, microchipped, and is fine with other dogs and with children. Come and meet Racine and her litter of puppies. There are four males and one female pup in this litter. Mom Racine was pregnant in a high-kill shelter and was rescued before the puppies were born. The puppies are now 10 weeks old and ready for their forever homes. Racine and her puppies are current on vaccinations, microchipped, fine with other dogs, and would be best with children over 12 due to their small size. They will be neutered/ spayed when they are of age. Connor is beautiful fawn-colored Mastiff and a gem of a dog. He was born November 2007 and was given up after his family’s daughter was diagnosed with leukemia and their world was turned upside down. We can’t say enough good things about Connor. He loves everyone he meets, and he grew up with kids and is happy to have them in his family. Gentle, loving, sweet, calm, mellow and easygoing, Connor is fabulous in every way. He was raised as an inside dog, is totally housebroken and has very good house manners. Connor walks superbly on leash and just loves to be with you wherever you are, no matter what you are doing. He would be best placed as an only dog or with another large female dog--he is not cat-safe. Remember that at 125 pounds, Connor can eat fair amount of dog food, so keep this in mind when budgeting for a new family member. Connor is neutered, current on vaccinations, has had a dental, is de-wormed, microchipped and good with kids.

Arwen is a gorgeous little brown Tabby and Arwen white girl with soft, golden eyes. This sweet girl was rescued from death along with her four newborn kittens. Time brought healing and as Arwen began to put on weight, she also began to take an interest in life once again. Arwen will rub against your legs, winding about your feet with a playful youthfulness that is extremely endearing. She adores playing with toys that she can bat and swat at, nuzzling her face against them from time to time as well. Arwen would be best suited in a calm, quiet adult household where she can feel secure and safe. Carmen is a stunning girl who will grace your home with her beauty. If you are looking for a sweet cat who is gorgeous to look at, won’t bother anyone or anything and gets along with any resident cats, then Carmen is your girl! Carmen will sleep on the bed if you’d like and will just generally hang out wherever you are in the house. If you have a safe cat enclosure or an enclosed yard with cat-proof fencing, Carmen loves to roll in the grass and that’s when her playful side will come out. Carmen needs to be given time to adjust to a new place and new people. Once she is settled in she will ask for gentle pets from you, her new best friend. These kittens/cats are available for adoption through Kitten Rescue, one of the largest cat rescue groups in Southern California. All of our kitties are spayed/ neutered, microchipped, tested for FeLV and FIV, de-wormed and current on their vaccinations.

Connor Best Friends, Popeye and Sam We love a Happy Tail with a happy e n d i n g t o t h e beginning of a new, wonderful life… “I just wanted to take a second to update you on the wonderful, smart Popeye the Pug. He has been a wonderful addition to our family! He and Sam, our Belgian Malinois, have fallen in love with each other. She thinks he is the greatest thing ever and is not keen on letting him out of her sight. “Popeye is incredibly smart and learns very quickly. We have not found it as hard as we thought to train a blind dog. He sits like a champ, has leaned to shake, and we are working on ‘down’ and hope to get him rolling over soon. He was the first to learn the doggie door once it was installed. He loves his walks and is off like a sprinter every time we head out for a walk. “They make such an odd couple! But they would never notice--they truly love each other and could care less about the 40-pound difference. Popeye loves to walk under Sam or sometimes even stand under her as they scope out the activity in front of the house. “You cannot even tell he is blind. Sometimes he misjudges a wall, but he just shakes it off and keeps on going. “He is a great p r o b l e m - s o l v e r (sometimes more so then we would like). He has figured out how to get up onto the cockpit of our boat from the cabin. Or before I closed in the stairs, Fetch a Dog From the Shelter! The BC SPCA cares for thousands of orphaned, Popeye, the one-eyed dog, with his new best friend Sam. he figured out how to climb around the baby gate. Or if you hide a treat under a couple dog beds, he will work on it ‘til he has got it all moved to get it. Or if you mess up the pillows on the sofa, he will work ‘til they are back to how he likes them--not what looks good! As you know he is our second blind dog, and we always tell people it is a non-issue! Just adopt and give them the love---Tim.” When you adopt a pet without a partner, you will forever make a difference in their life and they are sure to make a difference in yours. • abandoned and abused dogs each year.
