REMI is a 2 year old male neutered english mastiff who was left in a shelter with his mate, Roxy. Fawn with a dark mask. He is up to date on his shots and heartworm preventative. Because of all the confusion surrounding his ending up in a shelter, he is very clingy and needs alot of one on one love and attention. Because of this, he will only be adopted to a family with no other animals, and who has the time to give to him. Children in the home must be over the age of 12. He is really a sweetheart and really deserves a family that will show him how life can be good. If you fit these qualifications, and would be willing to give Remi the life he deserves, please fill out an application. . Special thanks to Oklahoma Sue T. and Heather for stepping up and everything they are doing to help Remi and special thanks to Heather and Trey for fostering both Remi and Roxy. And to Donna for the use of her vehicle and to Kathy for the offer of a llooonnnggg ride : ) .

If you could open your heart and home to either Roxy or Remi, please fill out an adoption application.

COURTESY POST - PLEASE CONTACT JANET FOR MORE INFORMATION ON TIGGER
- - I rescued Tigger almost 2 years ago. A vet in Kansas said he was probably
born January/February of 2005. He also deemed him a Mastiff (probably Cane Corso)
and Lab mix. He was last seen by my vet on May 25, 2007. He then received his
Rabies shot and boosters. He's been on Heartguard as long as I've had him. He is
neutered. His tail and ears were never cropped. He had Happy Tail Syndrome as a
puppy, but it has since healed. He does well on car rides, he was raised with
other dogs including a chihuahua. He is excellent with my toddler and has never
shown any signs of aggression. He will bark at the doorbell or when cars would
pull up in our driveway. He usually calms at our saying it's OK. He loves to run
outside and loved having his doggy door. Now that we have moved into an
apartment with no yard and no place to walk, he is not happy. Playing chase, tug
of war and chewing bones makes him extremely happy. He walks well on a leash and
I've been easily able to pull a stroller and have him walk next to it many
times. He has basic obedience and loves to please. He weighed 92 lbs at that
last visit in May. The vet said he was as tall as he'll probably get, but may
fill in a little more. He's never been a picky eater and lets me add kelp to his
food. I've given him vitamins and brewers yeast and he takes them like treats.
Of course, like any pup he lives for the occasional hot dog that falls off the
grill. He is the perfect family dog! If you are interested in Tigger,
please fill out an application. The adoption fee is $125. If you have additional
questions, please contact Janet at janet.fontenot@us.army.mil.
======================================================================== Senior Love One by One, they pass by my cage, They say, "Too worn, too broken, too old of age. Way past his time, he can't run and play." Then they shake their heads and go on their way. A little old man, arthritic and sore, It seems I am not wanted anymore. I once had a home, I once had a bed, A place that was warm, and where I was fed. Now my muzzle is grey, and my eyes slowly fail. Who wants a dog so old and so frail? My family decided I didn't belong, I got in their way, my attitude was wrong. Whatever excuse they made in their head, Can't justify how they left me for dead. Now I sit in this cage, where day after day, The younger dogs get adopted away. When I had almost come to the end of my rope, You saw my face, and I finally had hope. You saw through the grey, and the legs bent with age, And felt I still had life beyond this cage. You took me home, gave me food and a bed, And shared your own pillow with my poor tired head. We snuggle and play, and you talk to me low, You love me so dearly, you want me to know. I may have lived most of my life with another, But you outshine them with a love so much stronger. And I promise to return all the love I can give, To you, my dear person, as long as I live. I may be with you for a week, or for years. We will share many smiles, you will no doubt shed tears. And when the time comes that I must leave, I know you will cry and your heart, it will grieve. And when I arrive at the Bridge, all brand new, My thoughts and my heart will still be with you. And I will brag to all who will hear, Of the person who made my last days so dear. Leslie Whalen
