Gale is a precious Ruby to her new family

Gale was transported from Red Lake to Pet Haven just before Christmas and just ahead of a big snowstorm. Look for her "before" picture looking skinny and frightened. Now, she has a new family and a new boxer brother named Hot Rod. She is looked well-fed, relaxed and ready for playtime; her new name is Ruby. Read the excerpt from Pet Haven's dog blog below to find out why:Everything is going great with Ruby (we've re-named her Texas Ruby after an old timey cowgirl singer, since Ruby is a cowdog!). She and Hot Rod are getting along just fine and everything is working out. I think she is calming Hot Rod down, which is a good thing. They are both sleeping in the office with me now.
She's adapting very well, has mastered stairs and coming through doors and knows where her food bowl is.

Thanks again for your assistance in getting Ruby to us. She's a real sweetie!

Pet Haven adoptions of Red Lake dogs!

Pet Haven had several adoptions on Monday, January 5, 2009 including three Red Lake dogs. Here are the highlights from the Pet Haven dog blog:

Rae Ann, a hound mix, has found her new home with a Min Pin sibling and two boys of her very own. Everyone who met Rae Ann fell in love with this gentle girl and we are very excited for her. Congratulations, Rae Ann!

Ahnung was adopted this weekend by Marilou, President of Pet Haven. We have all enjoyed ribbing Marilou for "foster failing" (adopting your own foster dog) for the third time (she has only "fostered" three dogs). Ahnung is a lucky girl and we are glad that she is "staying in the Pet Haven family" and we will all get to see a lot more of her.

Gale, a female mixed breed from Rosie's Red Lake Rescue, never even made it onto our website. While out walking with her foster mom last week she met some neighbors who fell in love with this little girl. She now has a Boxer brother and a mom who works from home. She has come a long way from being abandoned in northern Minnesota with a litter of puppies!
