Felipe was adopted in January 2021 and we received this great progress report from his new adoptive family:
"Felipe, is doing great and growing fast! He has integrated well in the family, and is mellowing out a bit. Initially he was scratching quite a bit but since he had his flea/tick dose it appeared to be just itchy puppy skin. We gave him a moisturizing bath and have been adding coconut oil to his food and his itching has gone away almost entirely and skin / coat is so soft. We believe this condition added to his anxiety/irritability. The family (including Felipe) had our first session with Randy Davis (behavorialist) today and he was very pleased and noted no behavioral (just puppy) issues and taught us how to work with the 'mouthy' behavior and respect food/space. He tried to get him to act irritated but was unsuccessful, which he viewed as a very good sign. He indicated that he would love to work with Felipe and noted he was very bright. We will be meeting with him again in 3 weeks."
Hanna (fka Fluffy) was adopted from ARWOB in October 2014. We received this nice "pupdate" from her adoptive Dad:
"Hanna is now about 8 years old and doing well. She’s a little mellower in her advancing years, but not that much. She’s still loves her daily walks and barks a lot and gets along with other dogs once she gets to know them. Her good buddy, a Lapso Apso, past away from Cushing’s syndrome about 3 months ago and she still sometimes looks for her. In the fall of 2019 she had most of her teeth extracted because of poor gums so she’s since been on soft food and she has just recovered from ehrlichiosis. So she’s been through a lot from living on the streets of Tecate to undergoing dental work and then a tick infection. Her vet said she’s a real trooper. We all agree and are glad we have her."
We received this adorable photo of Finnegan from his adoptive family! He is turning 5 years old in May 2020!
Here’s a happy tail we received about Guapo (fka Frankie). His new mama and human brother are making him such a happy boy:
“Guapo enjoys showers with his boy. They hop in together!”
