A HUGE THANK YOU to all the special people who helped in the move. You all are kind souls. Just look at the faces of the dogs in the new pens and you can tell how happy and thankful they are, Special thanks to Ozzie Gary for staying down at the ranch taking care of the dogs until the transfer. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!

Awesome pics.... congratulations on the move. The dogs look so happy!

All day long we kept thinking that Sirena was almost part of that move.

So glad to see that the move went off without a hitch. Thanks for posting pics of the move!

And a big thanks to Aussie for taking care of the pups in Axumal.

Can't wait to see the shelter next month!!

The poop pickup will be covered Mo but we do need people to come and help leash train the dogs.

Very cool Erik!....I would love to do walking/leash training. I would also be happy to help teach other Dog Walker volunteers. I am no expert, but many of my dogs in my lifetime have been "challenging" with regard to training & I have learned a lot.

I know you all are crazy busy working hard at this time. So I will contact you when I arrive to town to set up a training/walking schedule.

I hope you & Jan get some time to rest & relax after this big move!!!

Looking forward to seeing you All!
Maureen

The dogs seem to be settling into the new shelter great! With the rains yesterday, the dogs were under the roofed area of their runs, and the water drained away from them, a great design!

Today is medication day at the new shelter!
All of the animals will be getting Heart worm medication, Frontline, and worming medication today!
Without all of these medications being donated, we wouldn't be able to do this. Thank you to everyone that has donated to help the animals.
Consider a donation, bring some Pedigree dog food, adopt one of the dogs, or become a monthly sponsor! The dogs need you!
