#760 - Harland
Breed: Schnauzer/terrier
Sex: male-neutered
Age:approx. DOB: 07/07
Weight: approx 27 pounds
HOW HARLAND GOT HIS NAME. This was going to be the day. He was very frightened, but he just had to do it. It was so much worse for things not to change, he had to take the chance. What if the other dogs were wrong? What if there weren't really any "goodpeople" out there? Maybe there weren't. He sure hadn't met any. Not at the puppy mill, not since his escape, not when he tried to find enough garbage just to keep him alive. All the people he had met either yelled or threw things like rocks, or even chased him. Then there were the terrible "car things", those things could hurt you so bad you couldn't walk and then you just died of thirst and starvation. It was taking an awful chance and if he kept thinking about it he wouldn't do it.

Finally it was time. He heard the soft flap of her wings and the sweet voice of the Rescue Angel as she flew over looking for homeless and abandoned animals. He was very frightened, but she might not come this way again, it might be his last chance. He crawled out of the dirty box he called "home" and lay on his belly in front of her. This was a mistake, he was filthy, there were no "goodpeople", no one would ever want him. He would just go back to his box. The Rescue Angel was so beautiful he couldn't move. She took his sad, dirty face in her hands and she kissed him. HIM, she kissed HIM. He had never been touched kindly, much less kissed. It...was...wonderful. Then she said "You are so handsome, you need a perfect name. Your perfect name is...Harland." Yes, she was right, he knew that must be his name. The Rescue Angel lifted Harland up in her arms and flew away with him. They flew to a place called "Rescue". At "Rescue" there was lots to eat, so much in fact that he hardly noticed the extra good bath he was given by the Angel. Then the Angel placed him on a soft, warm bed and gave him more hugs and kisses. It was the best! But the Angel said it would be better, she would help him find a "forever" home where all the people were good people, and there was lots and lots of good food. There would be a soft bed and friends. Friends would be the best of all.

That's my story. That's me, that's good dog Harland. I am still kind of shy and frightened, but I am ready to take a chance if I can get more hugs and kisses. I am a gentle guy that has had it kind of rough, but I believe in the Angel and I'm sure that if a "forever" home is even half as good as Rescue then it must be just like heaven! If you're looking for a friend with a sweet soul, then I'm your guy. I would sure like it if you would come see me and practice your petting and scratching, I really do like a good scratch! Come soon!

#770 - Bobo
Breed: Chihuahua-pure bred
Sex: male-altered
Age: DOB: 01/04/08
Weight: approx. 12 pounds
HOW ABOUT A LITTLE BIT OF BOBO? If you want just a tiny bit, then here I am. That's me, that's good puppy BoBo. I am a little guy that needs someone to care for me and teach me all the puppy "stuff'". In return I will warm your heart and your lap. I would probably do best with older children that will understand how to treat a guy as small as me, or maybe someone who's housebound and needs a close friend. I don't eat much and I have a short, easy care coat, but I do need to spend most of my time in the house. How about a little BoBo in your life? Come see me and I'll show you how big a little guy can be. Come soon!

Moreland is now heartworm free, on monthly heartworm preventive and a healthy, happy boy!

#858 - Moreland
Breed: German Shorthaired Pointer
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx. DOB 05/05
THE MOST WONDERFUL DOG! He was "THE Most Wonderful Dog", but he didn't know it. When he was young he was loved and given a lot of care and training. He learned all his master had to teach him and would have learned a lot more if he had been given the chance. Life was good! Then one day his master just lost interest. There was no more training, sometimes there was no food or water and worst of all...  there was no medicine to prevent heartworms. The neglect broke his heart, what had he done? The gate was opened all the time, now, no one cared where he went. One day he went for a walk and lost his way. He couldn't find his home or his master. For days he wandered the streets, no home, no master. He was lost, starving and sick. There seemed no reason for him to go on. That was when the kind man found him and took him to Rescue and Foster Mother. There was food, clean water and medicine to cure him from the terrible heartworms. Foster Mother said the best words of all..."You are THE MOST WONDERFUL DOG, and I will help you find a home".

That's my story, that's me, that's good dog Moreland. I am recovering and will soon be well and healthy again. I am trained, but I love to learn and would like for you to teach me more. All I want is to be your companion, give you love, and make you proud that I am your dog! Please come see me, and let me show you that I am truly "The Most Wonderful Dog". Come soon!

#867b - Sydney
Breed: Collie/German Shepherd
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx. DOB: 03/24/09
AN OUTING IN THE COUNTRY, NOW THAT SOUNDED COOL!  Nobody told us the trip was one way. That's us, that's good puppies Sky and Sydney. We were dumped out in a rural area, with no way to get food or water. The people said they would come back and feed us, but they never did. And do you know what? There are big, bad things that eat little puppies out in the country. That's if you don't starve first. Anyway we were sure glad to see some kind people that found us and took us to Rescue. Now we are here, safe and with plenty to eat, but what we really want is a "forever" home. The other dogs told us about all the "stuff" good puppies have to learn, and we are sure ready. Would you be willing to teach us? If you'll come see us we will tell you all about our adventures in the country. Come soon!

#889 - Lexi
Breed: Rottweiler
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB: 07/08
THIS IS ME, THIS IS LEXI, THIS IS VERY GOOD DOG LEXI. And this is my story. I was treated badly by my family, but I still loved them. Then one day they took me for a ride and turned me out to fend for myself. It was very bad, there was very little shelter and only some garbage to eat. I was scared and lonely. Then one day a nice family saw me and didn't throw rocks or yell at me. I was afraid to get near them, but I ate the food they left and I followed their car. I followed it a whole 7 miles. Next time they saw me I was in some bushes near their house, peaking out at them. I was so scared, I wouldn't let them catch me. Days passed, they kept setting out food and water, it was very hard for me to trust, but one day I was there in their carport. I became friends with the man, I played ball with him and slowly learned to trust him. However, that family had a small child and didn't trust my large breed. They called the Sheriff's Office about a place to take me, the Sheriff's Office told the nice man to "shoot" me because there was no place to take me. The animal shelters in the area were also full, they said to "shoot" me too! But, the man was a nice man and would not shoot me. He kept looking and finally found Foster Mother. Foster Mother took me to her wonderful Rescue, she also gave me hugs and kisses. I told her I would not have hurt nice man's small child, I would have protected small child. Foster Mother said she knew that, but some people are just afraid. At least nice man brought me to Rescue and now I have a chance to have a real home. Foster mother tells me that I am a nice girl, and she gives me kisses every single day. I like kisses and hugs. If you are looking for a girl that is a good dog and would be very grateful to live with a nice family and be their friend and protector, then please come see me. Also it would be nice if you can play ball. Please come soon and bring a ball! Nice people, nice ball, all very nice!!!

#890 - Fergi
Breed: Weimaraner
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx. DOB: 08/07
FERGI FOUND! Sooooo much better than Fergi lost! I am good dog Fergi and I was sooooo lost. I was dumped on the highway and I didn't know where to go or what to do. Then the Rescue Angel found me and took me to Rescue. Now I gotta tell you, I love to be indoors, be a house dog and sleep on the bed. Rescue is a whole lot better than being alone, in danger, and always hungry, but it's not a home. I need someone that will appreciate having a companion and protector. I need a home and someone to love. I need a human to take for a walk. I need someone that needs a ball brought back. How about you, what do you need? Maybe my services? Come see me and let's talk about it. Come soon!

weight: approx. 12 pounds
CADDIE, CADDIE, SUCH A LADY! I blush to say, that, that is me, good dog Caddie. I'm a wee bit of a girl at 12 pounds. I have a gentle nature and a loving heart. I would love to have a lap to warm and a human to give smiles to. I would be pleased to help you read a good book, or to accompany you on a daily walk. Being so small I will need to live in the house, especially in the cold days of winter. Perhaps you would help me find a colorful sweater? I don't need much room or eat much, but I promise giant rewards for every bit of attention and care that I will require. If you are looking for a sweet companion and friend for life, then please come see me. Come soon!

#915 - Batman
Breed: Chihuahua cross
Sex: male-altered
Age: approx. DOB: 05/09
Weight: approx. 7 pounds
HEY!! BATMAN AIN'T NO TACO! But, I almost was! I didn't know I couldn't cross the highway, because no one told me I couldn't. So...I was almost a taco! Just about the time I was going to kiss a truck tire, a nice lady scooped me up. Then the miracle happened...  she bought me a whole hamburger, just for me. Then she went to all the nearby houses and tried to find my home, now, is that nice or what? No one knew me, so she brought me to rescue. Everybody there tried and tried to find my home, no luck! So, I'm up for adoption. How about that? You need a good puppy? How about good puppy Batman? I'm a little guy, so I don't need much room and I don't need much care or much food. I do need to be kept off the highway, though. I would like it if you would come see me, and maybe bring another hamburger? Come soon, and don't forget that burger, huh?

#941 - RockO
Breed: Labrador
Sex: male-neutered
Age: DOB: 03/09
I AM GOOD DOG ROCKO, AND THIS IS MY STORY. It is the story of so many of us, but I hope you will read it and learn. I was given to a family when I was only a puppy. It was just another case of careless, uncaring people allowing their dogs to breed, because they think they have pure bred dogs. Then when they find out how much work puppies are, they give the pups to anyone that will take them. I was given to a family that didn't really want and was not prepared for a dog, but who couldn't resist a cute little puppy. I am now 7 months old and active, just like I should be. I was just more than they imagined, more care and energy than they could handle, etc, etc, etc. They said they were not "dog people" and needed to find another place for me. So, here I am in Rescue. It was heart breaking, they were the only family I knew. I am just a normal dog with normal energy, I am not hyper or a bad boy. I want to learn, in fact I can "sit" and will offer you my paw if you ask. If you will just help me to learn I will be your lifelong companion and guardian. I am a smart boy, I just need a chance. Will you give me that chance?

If you will just give me a chance I will show you that I can be loyal and devoted, your protector, defender and best friend. It made me feel very sad to be dumped, but I believe that there are still some good people and families out there. Folks that will return my devotion and love. If that's you, then please come see me. I need a family, and you need a friend. Come soon!

I am safe in rescue now but have heartworms that are being treated.
Soon I will be well and happy.

#976 - Sabra
Breed: Silky Terrier
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB 01/08
Weight: 10 pounds
CHICKEN LITTLE? Not the ones that were after me! I'm good dog Sabra, and you gotta hear my story! My good friend Pip and I were dumped, out in the country. (Why, oh why, do people think that dumping a dog in the country is a good idea? I'm here to tell you it's not!) Anyway, we were lucky and some nice people took us in and tried to find our home. They didn't have a fenced place for us so we had to hang out with the chickens. Those chickens were bigger than me, I only weigh 10 pounds, and they have very sharp beaks. Besides which, can you believe? They like dog food! I was getting thinner and thinner, while those chickens were getting fatter and fatter. They sure could guard that food! After a couple of months, those folks realized I was going to be dinner for the chickens, so they brought us to Rescue. Things are much better now that I'm here in in a safe place with other friendly dogs and not chickens. My ambition is to be a lap dog and be loved on. If the only chicken at your house is served on a platter, then I'm your girl. If you'll come see me I'll whisper some great recipes in your ear. Come soon!

Unfortunately they didn't get a license number, in their rush to save me from on-coming traffic. I was taken to safety in Rescue, and that's where I am now. That's me that's good puppy Tabitha. And I gotta tell you I am a happy girl with not much memory of my horrible ordeal. I'm just waiting here, patiently, for you to come get me. I know we are going to have a great life, together.

food and a little attention. I tried hard to please--I can play ball and
am well-behaved. I'm just a kid after all, about a year-old. Lucky for
me, I wandered up to some nice people's home who brought me

Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB 03/07
Weight: 27 pounds
NOTHING...  CAN CHUCKLE LIKE A CHICKEN! I found that out... the hard way! That's me, that's good dog Kikkan. I was dumped out in the country and joined up with my good friend Nashira. When we were nearly starved we were found by a kind lady and taken in with 20 other rescued dogs. When we started to feel stronger and more comfortable at the new place, we began to explore and look for fun things to do. We found the chickens! Chickens are fun! They are especially fun to chase. They always run, always! We were not going to hurt the chickens and were only playing with them, however, chasing chickens was not allowed, so we had to leave our happy rescued home. The kind lady called Ahimsa Rescue and that's where we are today There are no chickens at Ahimsa Rescue, but we are having a great time playing with other furry friends of our own kind. We are hoping that our stay will only be temporary, what we really want is a "forever" home, and no more one way visits to the country. We would like to be adopted together, but are willing to be separated. If you're looking for a loyal, loving friend, and there are no chickens at your house, then please come see us. Come soon!

#1009 - Puglsey
Breed: Pug

Age: approx. DOB: 03/09
Weight: 20 pounds
I am housetrained!
IT WAS AT THE WITCHES FAIR! There was a booth selling "fried Twinkies", "fried pickles:, "fried butter" and "fried puppies". Thank goodness that I was too young to read, but there was a nice lady there that could. She scraped together every penny she had with her and bought me to save my life. I lived with her for a year and we loved other very much. But, finally the beatings from her 6 year old pug just got too much. It broke both our hearts, but she knew I needed a chance, so she brought me to Rescue. That's where I am now, waiting for you to come meet me. I would really like a home with lots of love and where I will feel safe and not be in constant terror of another dog. I wouldn't mind a nice doggie companion, but one that wouldn't beat up on me. I am a bit shy from all the trauma that I have experienced, but I could come out of my shell for the right person. I love to be carried around and loved on, and have a reputation as a real sweet, gentle guy. So how about it? Will you come see me? Come soon!

Age: approx. DOB: 04/08
Weight: approx 15 pounds
UPROOTED BY A WILD CHILD, booted because of a brat! That's me, that's good dog Tristan, and that's how I came to be homeless. My owner had a baby, that was fine with me, till that baby started to grow. As he grew he got wilder and rougher. My owner didn't know that discipline is good for children too. Finally she realized that I was gonna be killed if she didn't do something. That something was to give me away, that was okay too. Then, the folks that took me lost their home and so here I am in Rescue, just waiting for you. I really want a "forever" home. I am ready to settle down and shower someone with all the love I have to give. If you think that might just be you, then please come see me. Come soon!

#1038-Dahlia
Breed: Pug cross
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB: 02/10
RAINY DAYS AND SUNDAYS ALWAYS MAKE ME BLUE, at least they used to till I was found out in the rain by a friend of the Rescue Angel. There I was about to drowned in a puddle (their all lakes when you only weigh 3 pounds!), when I was swooped up and brought to Rescue. Now I have friends to play with, and a beautiful name. That's me, that's good puppy Dahlia. The only thing missing is a "forever" home and family, and I bet you could supply that. What I need is a kind, patient human, willing to help me learn all the puppy "stuff", so I can reach my full potential and be a shinning star. If you would come see me on Sunday then I would never be blue again! Come soon!

#1039-Tanner
Breed: Cairn Terrier
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx. DOB: 04/08
LITTLE BOY TANNER - Looking for Love! As long as I can remember I have been in search of a forever home filled with love and care. Just before I was swooped up by a rescue angel and brought to Ahimsa I was trotting on down the highway in the heat cause I knew there had to be some love out in the world somewhere for me! And why not? I am a little white bundle of joy in spite of some sad things I have been through. I love people so much that I even love to be bathed and groomed! I never met a dog or a person I didn't like so I would fit in almost anywhere. Not only am I smart--I can sit on command and am leash-trained--but I love to play with toys at playtime. And at the end of the day I love to be held in case you need some help unwinding from a busy day! Are you the one to help me realize my dream of a forever home? I come equipped with endless joy and love for you! Come soon. Love, Tanner

Breed: Shepherd/Husky
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx DOB 05/08
CAN YOU IMAGINE HAVING TO FACE A FIRING SQUAD?? Well, I almost did. That's me, that's good dog Marta. My humans didn't want me anymore, so they were just going to shoot me to get rid of me. I gotta tell you I was pretty scared! You people think animals are dumb, well, we understand a whole lot more than you think we do. I sent out an S.O.S. and a friend of the Rescue Angel heard it and came and saved me in the nick of time. Boy! Was that a close one, or what? Now I'm looking to the future and hoping to be adopted by some NICE humans. Who wouldn't want an intelligent, well behaved, young lady that gets along very well with other dogs? My dream is to be a friend and companion to someone that will love me like I love them. Could that possibly be you? If you think there might be a chance for us, then please come see me. Come soon!

Weight: approx 9 pounds
LITTLE BOY LOST! That was me, that was good dog Rolf. So, I just marched up and turned myself in at the City Pound. I was sure my owner would come find me there, and I was off the street where the cars go fast, fast. Well, my owner never came and that made me very sad. But, the Rescue Angel came and took me to Rescue and a chance at a new home. So much as I'm sad, I am also hopeful. I'm trying to put the past behind me and concentrate on having a new life and a new love. All I really care about is being a friend and companion, that's my job and I always do my job. No matter what! So if you have room , and a "forever" home, for a very good boy, please come see me. Come soon!

#1045 - Lola
Breed: Rottweiler
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB: 05/07
IT WAS A MIXED MARRIAGE AND IT JUST DIDN'T WORK! A human married a witch and they got me. Finally the witch decided to divorce the human (those things just never work out), and she threw him out. He loved me and wanted to take me, but he had no where to go. The witch said that if he didn't get me out of there, she would make a stew out of me. The kind human didn't want me chopped up and cooked, so he brought me to Rescue. I was truly devoted, even to the witch, but it didn't move her pea sized heart, not one bit. That's me, that's good dog Lola. And here I am now, just waiting and hoping for someone to love and care for. I would love a job as a companion and protector, I am well behaved and have a gentle, caring nature. If you might have a place in your home and heart for a big girl with a bigger heart, then please come see me. Come soon! (No witches need apply!)

Before I came to Rescue I was lost and all alone in the world, I sure didn't have a song then! Life was not good and I thought it might be very, very short. Now I have a chance at a long happy life and I have a song. Things sure are looking up. Things could be even better if you would come see me. We could sing my song together and share it. If you like our singing together you might take me to a "forever" home and help me learn all the puppy "stuff". That would all be really excellent. I am here waiting for you, we will sing when you come. Come soon!

Breed: Brussels Griffon
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB: 05/08
Weight: approx. 10 pounds
TICK TOCK, I'M NOT A PLACE FOR THE FLEAS TO DOCK!!! It was just awful. First I was turned out into the streets to fend for myself. Then the passengers started to board! Next thing you know I was covered from head to foot. Here a tick, there a tick, everywhere a flea and a tick. I was probably carrying more than my total weight! I was sure they would drain every drop of my blood, but the worst was the itching. I thought I would go insane. I found a lady that I thought would help me, but she called Rescue and said if they didn't come in 15 minutes she was going to shoot me!!! Well, believe it or not, that was help, because Foster Mother came on the run. It's a miracle she didn't get a speeding ticket, she came so fast. She brought me, at arms length, back to Rescue and put me right into a big bath. Next thing you know all my passengers were dead and gone. What a relief! Next I was carefully checked out to be sure I didn't have any diseases from all those miserable critters. The good news is that I'm healthy as can be. Now that's another miracle! The next miracle is that the Rescue folk say I can stay here till I find a good "forever" home where I will never have another flea or tick as long as I live. They say I'll be loved and cared for and have someone to love. Isn't that great? That's all I've really ever wanted, just to have a human that will give me hugs and kisses and let me keep their lap warm. Could that maybe be you? If you have a little room in your home and your heart, then I'm your girl. Please come see that tiny is only a state of mind. Come soon!

#1053 - Taylor
Breed: Labrador Retriever
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx. DOB 11/09
"A STITCH IN TIME SAVES NINE." That's supposed to be a "Taylor thing", but all I know is my life was saved by Rescue! That's me, that's good puppy Taylor. I was given to some people that weren't ready for a puppy, so since I grew, they turned me into the City Pound, without a care as to what would happen to me. That's where the "saved " part comes in. I was brought to Rescue and now I have a chance at a real life with someone that will love me enough to help me learn all the puppy "stuff". I am happy, well adjusted and anxious to learn. My ambition is to be a great companion, friend and protector. Come see me and get in on the ground floor! Early training is the best. Come soon!

#1054 - Gunner
Breed: Basset Hound, Beagle mix
Sex: male-neutered
Age: approx. DOB 11/09
TERROR!! IN THE STREET!! An urgent S.O.S was sent out to the Rescue Angel. A lady wanted her to check on a little dog that was in the street and would not move. She did not know if the dog had been hit by a car and was afraid to check closer. A nearby business reported that a vehicle stopped nearby and when they left, there was the dog, lying in the street. The Angel flew, as fast as her wings would carry her! She found a little dog lying in the road, just like the lady said. He had not been hit by a car or injured, but was simply bewildered and utterly terrified. He did not know what to do or where to go. The Angel swooped him up off the roadway and flew him to the safety of Rescue.

That's how I got to Rescue. That's me, that's good dog Gunner. The Angel says I must have more than one life. I sure hope so! When she put me into Foster Mother's arms, she said I now have a whole new, wonderful life ahead of me. Do you think that's possible? Maybe I'm not so lovable, maybe I'm not cute enough. Why else would someone throw me out on the road to be killed? I don't know, I've always tried to be a good boy. I love humans. I just don't know. Foster Mother says I'm a great little dog with a lot of good times and good years ahead of me. She says you're out there looking for me. I sure hope so!

Foster Mother's note. Please help us give Gunner hope and show him that there are kind, loving people out there. If you think there might be a place in your home and your heart for this darling little boy, please come meet him. You won't be sorry! Come soon!

#1064 - Bella
Breed: German Shepherd
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB: 03/10
TORTURED BY TROLLS, that's what the first couple of months of my life was like. I was just a tiny baby when the witch brought me home and give me to her miserable little trolls. They tied me in the yard, with no shelter from the weather. The trolls only fed me when they though about it, and that wasn't very often. They did take the time to come over and kick me on a very frequent basis though. The witch thought about eating me, but thanks to the trolls I was just too skinny. I had pretty much given up on everyone and everything when a friend of the Rescue Angel saved my life. I never knew, but she had been watching me from the first day and saw what monsters the trolls were. She had been trying to save me all that time, and the witch figured I wouldn't live much longer anyway, so I was sold to the Angel's friend. What a revelation! I had no idea what kindness was, I have been amazed every day since then. Now I know there are kind people out there and I am anxious for a "forever" home with one of them, or even a nice family. If that sounds like you, then please come see me. Come soon!

#1070 - Sadie
Breed: Labrador-Pure Bred
Sex: female-spayed
Age: approx. DOB: 06/06
THE OGRE WAS BAKING, at least he was trying to bake. His witch of a wife had left him and he wasn't sure just exactly how to do it right. He had put the two dogs out into the full sun with no shelter. It should have been all over with him sitting down to a nice meal of rare dog by now, but one of the miserable animals kept escaping. Finally someone took her to the pound and he wasn't going to pay any money to get back what was already his. There was still the other dog and his meal should be ready soon. After all the law wasn't strict enough to keep him from baking the stupid animal alive, hopefully it would never change. "It's a good thing animals don't have a voice." he thought!

That's how I came to be in Rescue. That's me, that's good dog Sadie, and I can only pray for the safety of my friend. I would like you to know that I am a very good girl and extremely obedient, I have even been through training. It is my dream to live in a safe, secure home where I'll have love and shelter. If you have a place for me, and are not a witch or an ogre, I promise to show you my gratitude for the rest of my life! Please come see me and I'll show you what a really good girl I am. Come soon!
