Love Conquers Fear #Straysinthehood

Nala has a new bed.  

She didn't exactly "Fit" in Precious' bed although she tried every night.

Precious couldn't wait to return the favor.

Deuce decided to join in on the fun.  

Nala doesn't mind sharing.  

I'm in total awe at how these two dogs went from being too afraid to eat or be around people.. to 

sleeping in comfy dog beds (and the couch).  They are so sweet and loving it saddens me to think of how much running they had to do and how afraid they had to be.

I'm very happy for both of them that they have found this life.   We're still looking for someone to adopt Deuce, but in the meantime.  He will enjoy the good life here.

What have I learned from this experience? 

Love Conquers Fear

Update: 10/13/201 Deuce found his furever home.  http://www.imajackrussell.com/2012/10/strays-in-hood-deuce-finds-his-furever.html

Update 12/9/2012: Rocky is now a member of the snuggle club in our home. After Rocky's adoption didn't go through, We didn't hesitate to add him to our family.  It seems that's how it was meant to be all along. 

Update 2/4/2013: Deuce showed back up outside.  Apparently, we didn't get his adoption the way he wanted.  We found him a wonderful home with a family with kids who love him.  So many lessons. 

Strays in the Hood: Meet Rocky (Video) #Adopt

Rocky needs a good home.  He would probably be better in a one dog family, or with someone who understands the pack mentality and has time and patience to train him.  In the streets he had to be very cautious, but as you can see... Rocky is a sweetie.

We have a few people who have shown interest in Rocky, but if you fall in love with him, don't hesitate to message us here.

Strays in the hood: The Belly Rub

Rocky

While Rocky is still pretty much a rebel, we have found at least one weakness.   The belly rub.

He will just plop down and assume the position.  

Not quite ready for the backyard yet.  We discovered he'd been helping Deuce dig a hole under the fence.

Each had done a pretty stellar job.  :) 

Rocky wants to be free to roam and wants free belly rubs.   For now, he has both.
