Lucile

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

This sweet girl is Lucile.  Lucile is a two year-old, spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, Queensland Healer.  She weighs about 35 lbs. and is the ideal size for travel and controllability.  She is honestly one of the sweetest girls we have ever had.  Since arriving at our rescue, she has recruited Specker, a 2-year-old border collie, as her best friend and playmate.   She is terrific off-leash and will pretty much follow me anywhere.  She hasn’t had any accidents in the house and adds a generally positive vibe to our pack.  She loves truck rides, wrestling with her buddies, and following me around the rescue.

If you are interested in adopting Lucile, please contact Zach at 661-972-3852.

Thelma and Louise

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

These two lovely ladies are Thelma and Louise (the human is my awesome neighbor girl, Rachel).  Thelma is spayed and about 1 year-old, with gorgeous, reddish brown coloring–almost orange at her mane.  Thelma also has piercing blue eyes that convey her precociousness.  We believe that Thelma is Louise’s daughter but we can’t be sure, as they don’t speak English and didn’t come with a biography.  Louise has brown eyes and more traditional Husky markings and is a real knock-out.  Louise definitely “carries the purse” in the relationship and Thelma seems to wait for advice from Louise before she makes any moves.

Louise has an appointment to be spayed this week and they have both been vaccinated.  They are wonderful around kids as well as other dogs and have fit in up here at the rescue like kids on a jungle gym.

THEY ARE AWESOME DOGS AND HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO ADD A TON OF PERSONALITY TO A WORTHY, LOVING HOME.

In Search of Loving Home

These two handsome doggies were found July 19th playing dodge car in front of the Shell station on the 202.  They appear to be Momma and Son (so we’ll call them Momma and Sonny) and are in very good shape.  Mom is about 4 and Sonny is about 2 years old–both unaltered–and Momma appears to have had puppies.  They are gorgeous dogs with classic German shepherd traits and aesthetics.

If we can’t find their owners, we will NEED TO FIND THEM NEW, LOVING HOMES.

If you know who these doggies belong to or are interested in possibly adopting one or both of them, please CONTACT ZACH at 661-972-3852.

Rosie Girl

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

This precious little munchkin is Rosie.  She is a 6 lb. (almost miniature), long-haired Chihuahua.  Rosie was a stray who moseyed herself up to a Good Samaritan at a gas station in Bakersfield.  It’s a good thing that she made herself noticed because, at 6 lbs., she would be easy prey and make a tasty snack.  She is definitely a love bug and wiggles her whole body when she gets excited.  She loves to burrow under the covers at bedtime and enjoys chillin’ on my lap when I’m at my desk or on the couch.  She loves all the other dogs up here (once they were told that she wasn’t breakfast) and has really shown herself to be a source of positive energy.  She is a joy to wake up next to and has an undeniably upbeat effect on me.  She is single-handedly forcing me to more optimistically consider the Chihuahua breed.

She has been vaccinated and is schedule for spay in a week.  If you are interested in adopting Rosie girl, please contact Zach at 661-972-3852.

Tater

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

 

This handsome, young gentleman is Tater.  We used to refer to him as “Tater Tot,” but we feel that he has matured beyond the “Tot” stage.  He is a 50 lb., 1-year-old, Collie mix.  He is a Tehachapi stray who luckily wound up at the Tehachapi Veterinary Hospital instead of dead by the side of the road.   He was absolutely teaming with burrowed fox tails (some of them mildly ulcerated) and it seemed he may have to be shaved.  The crew at TVH has got a variety of skills and was able to remove every foxtail without shaving him.  He now boasts a stylish, robust coat that is the envy of the rest of the dogs at the hospital.  He has been at the hospital for the last month healing up and learning how to be a dog.  Tater has been neutered, completely vaccinated and is well on his way to being completely housebroken.  Tater has a very tame, happy demeanor and is ready to try out his life skills at his new, forever home.  If you are thinking about giving Tater a shot, please contact Zach at 661-972-3852 or Pam at the Tehachapi Vet. Hospital.

Frankie

Friday, July 16th, 2010

This little marvelous munchkin is Frankie.  Frankie, and his girlfriend Faith, were rescued from the Cal City Pound.  The Cal City Pound is hot, diseased, deafeningly loud and an overall nasty place to be incarcerated.  It is over-populated (mostly with pit bulls) and is not the place you want to end up if you are interested in a future.  We normally don’t recue Chihuahua’s but after one look at Frankie (and Faith), we knew he had to be saved from that place.  Frankie is about 3 years old,  and seems to exude gratitude.  We’ve had him neutered, micro chipped and completely vaccinated. He gets along very well with dogs of all sizes, ages and demeanors not to mention people.  FRANKIE IS A LAP DOG.  IF FRANKIE’S FEET NEVER TOUCHED THE GROUND AGAIN, HE WOULD BE COOL WITH THAT.  It’s not that he can’t walk; he just loves the affection of humans and prefers to be snuggled up with one.

If you are interested in adopting Frankie, please contact  Zach at 661-972-3852.
