Nodin's pups in new homes

Three of the "porch puppies" have reported in to their former foster mom, Linda:

NODIN'S PUP RAJA / MOSELY

This was the biggest boy weighing 15 lbs on his 8 week birthday - -

Mose is doing great! looking as cute as ever too!

NODIN'S PUP REBA / SOPHIE

Sophie is doing really well! We just took her to the vet to get her 2nd set of shots and she weighs in at 19.2lbs today! So she is growing really well and she is going to be a big girl. haha

She also has met a lot of people already and made some doggie friends. We are starting puppy school in the first week of June so that should be fun. =)

I also attached some recent photos of Sophie in this email. Her next vet visit isn't until middle of June, so we'll see how big she will be by then.

Thanks for checking in and I hope you and rest of the All Dog Rescue team have a wonderful summer!

NODIN'S PUP RIO

Rio, one of Nodin's pups, with his new mom and dad.

Rio is doing really well in his new home. He's taken to everything pretty well. He has had some accidents and have been teaching him the "off" command for his puppy nipping but other then that his crate training and getting used to our cats has been really good for his age.

NODIN'S PUP REUBEN

Hi Linda!

Reuben is doing great! He went to the vet yesterday, and was deemed a happy and healthy puppy!

He and Layla, the Golden Retriever, are still feeling each other out.  He plays a little too rough with her, but is learning.  He really enjoys playing with the cat, Winston, and the neighbor's new puppy, Pepper. 

LAYLA & REUBEN

He loves walking around the lake and eating grass in the backyard. 

Thank you so much for all of your help and information!

NOTE FROM FOSTER MOM LINDA:
No picture, but it sounds like Rylee (the other pup of Nodin) is dearly loved by his family and everyone who meets her falls in love with her.  Sounds like wherever her "mom" goes, Rylee goes.  So good ending for all of Nodin's pups.

You lookin' at me??

A nice lady named Nicole from Elk River was in Red Lake recently and found 2 little puppies wandering the roads. She called Red Lake Rosie's Rescue and I told her how full we were - so - she took the two little puppies with her to Elk River.

She stopped at RLRR shelter and the little pups got wormer, lst parvo shots, and flea and tick application. Here is Nicole's update:

RINGO & RIOHi Karen,
Just wanted to let you know how great the puppies are doing! Tomorrow, Ringo goes to his new home, and I am keeping Rio. They are both thriving, and they are truly the most remarkable puppies I have ever seen.

I take pictures nonstop, and I'm partnering with the local Chuck and Don's to bring more awareness for your rescue, so they are allowing me to post the photos I took up there and of the rescue pups I have and post them on the board so people can see for themselves what great things you are doing! I have some pictures attached for you... Ringo is the blue eyed guy, and Rio is the darker one.

I'm writing this with tears in my eyes, I'm going to miss Ringo but he is going to such a great home, and will be the apple of the 10-year-old boy's eye. I am so happy to have gotten the chance to save these little guys, and it's truly an amazing thing what you do day in and day out. Thank you again, and I am working on getting some extra dog food for you guys up there, and anything I can do to help down here, get the word out, let me know.

Oh, and I am still hopeful that the pups mother will be able to be rescued and brought to your caring, loving place. When you get her, please let me know! It will put my mind at ease. God Bless you, Karen!

Mike & Lauren's first visit of the new year

Mike and Lauren visited the shelter arriving on January 2 and riding out January 5 with eight dogs and puppies and four cats to the metro.

MIKE WATERING ANIMALSThey were very helpful during their stay helping after the snowstorms, clearing roofs, and caring for cats and dogs.

CHICOThey were able to make a rescue of one puppy left at the Redby dump and in a holding pen in Red Lake and two young cats at the Pound. They did some shopping for supplies and got the vehicles filled with gas. They also made a vet run as we had three neuter/spays and another dog that needed vaccinations.

We had a great time during their stay!

DONNIEBOSSThe cats Donnie and Boss went to Feline Rescue.

RIORio and Sabrina went to All Dog Rescue.

SABRINA

GABRIEL & GALENMARS took Galen and Gabriel as well as two pups from a litter of four.

Twin City Pet Rescue took the other two pups of the litter of four.

Thank you all.

LAUREN AND TWO OF FOUR PUPSNOTE FROM LAUREN:
Mike and I went up to help Karen out at the shelter for a few days. It was outrageously cold - for chores one morning, it was -28 degrees! But we bundled up and were just fine once we started working.

BOOTSIEThere are tons of great cats up at the shelter. I attached a few pics of some. We took home Chico and Rosie to foster through Pet Haven. These little ones had been left in an abandoned home after a family moved.

GINAWe also picked up a little dog named Gina, who has mange all over her face. She looked so pitiful and must have been so cold outside! She is very friendly and sweet, though.

While up at the shelter, we noticed a few supplies that Karen still needs: Rubber pales/buckets with handles, dry kitten and cat food, canned cat and dog food, and smaller scratching posts for cats.

We loaded up my Honda Accord and packed in eight pups and four cats. Rio sat on my lap the whole way back and was a terrific rider. We're so glad these little ones get to go down to the Twin Cities and get warm, loving places to stay.
