I am hoping to Rescue a little girl..

Last night I found Boxer breeders on Ebay. So I emailed them. One responded this morning, and we sent emails back and forth. then I got curious and googled the name of her kennel. The first thing that popped up was in 2010 she was accused of running a puppy mill. The local news  for that area reported on it and I found the video. I was disgusted at the living conditions of the puppies..and I instantly said " NO WAY" . If I could afford to, I would buy everyone from her and save them..every thing was absolutely deplorable. My heart ached for all the dogs in her possession. She claimed to not be a puppy mill, however, You can not have that many dogs and not be one. They were housed outside in hand made, rickety cages. I wanted to cry.

Then I found our local Boxer Rescue. My heart began to melt, I said the heck with it and I filled out an application.

 They have this baby there she is around 10 weeks old, her sister has all ready been adopted. So I am hoping she is still available. If not, then there are a couple of others around the 1-2 year range, that we could possible give a home too.  There are fees for adoption, they do like to come meet with you prior to placement, but that is expected. I would rather give our money to help save a life and benefit a worthy cause then to a two bit breeder who is in it for the money..
My fingers are crossed and my prayers have been said that we can rescue one of the babies.  We have a lot of love to give, and Ruger would love a play mate.   NW has already came up with names : "Rossi" or "Liberty" after our new safe.  : )

Sunday...

The coffee is strong this morning. The sun is breaking through a fine layer of fog. It feels like April but the calendar say January. My roses think its spring time and sprouting new buds. Even the trees are starting with fresh blooms.

It is supposed to continue here for the next week. And by next Friday be more seasonable..what ever seasonable actually means anymore.

Mosin is growing. He seems a bit taller. My patience with him has been tried and tested this past week. But I have to keep reminding myself that he is just a baby and learning.

He likes to nip at Ruger. Mosin, being a Dobie has a much different attitude then Ruger, who is a Boxer. Ruger is  a big baby. If a bad guy came in the house, he would probably lick him to death.  Mosin likes to jump at and try to bite him in the neck. Finally Ruger has  started to fight back...

I like this picture because it looks like Ruger is reminding Mosin who is the oldest and just who is the Alpha Male in the house:
