Walking with the clouds and Rainy.

What a beautiful start to my day! I had two nice ladies that I hadn't walked yet. They were both adjective names....Rainy and Red! Rainy is a sweet, kinda shy, white and brown pit bull mix. She has a brown marking by her eye that almost looks like a tear....She enjoyed her walk and mingled with a butterfly. She was fascinated, but quickly moved on to something else when she realized that chasing it involved walker(that would be me) cooperation!

Rainy....see her teardrop?

Red is a very special girl. She was found in North Carolina with a snake bite on her nose. The couple that  found her were unable to keep her, so we are hoping that someone has a spot in there hearts and home for her. Red and ALL the adoptable dogs have information available at the HSHV website.

"Red"

Red walks very patiently on her leash and never pulls!








                                              Next up, was Jack. Now Jack was a puppy that I walked two weeks ago with his sibling, Jill (Go figure =)  )

Jack and Jill

Jill was adopted and Jack seemed like he might still be looking for her at the start of our walk...BUT Jack has an adoption pending, so we had a little chat about what a "big day" he has ahead of him. This guy exhibits so much  pure JOY! I sure will miss his happy little attitude. I will update this post this evening.

Jack

Another female named Daisy. She is very new, thus no photo. She is still learning the sounds and ways of the shelter. She is a lovely jet black lab mix with some white markings. What a nice girl! She was a little skittish going out "in front" of the kennels (which is jokingly referred to as the "gauntlet". It's when you take a dog out of it's kennel and you pass the kenneled dogs that are just waiting to taunt the dog that gets to go out for a walk)....it's almost like a doggy ritual. Some dogs are more reactive than others. Poor Daisy wasn't sure what was going on, but once we cleared that, as quickly as possible, she was a dream!


    Last up, one of my favorites ...MEECH!!!

Who can resist this smoochy face??

Meech!

 So. Mr. Meech was a very patient guy. We walked we stopped and chatted with one of my fellow dog walkers, Amy (she is working with Dixie)! He was very good and we stopped a "talking" and got down to the business of "walking" Meech says "more walky walk and LESS talky, talk"!! Love his absolutely adorable snout!

As always, all the photos are from HSHV website...please, please tell your friends and family to visit the site. There are so many wonderful dogs, cats and other animals too, that are waiting to find forever homes!
