Quade's Olympic Tryouts
Quade might be a little late to make the 2012 London Olympics, but we know this loving boy will be just as eager to please and play with some lucky family four years down the road.
In the meantime, he's been practicing his moves. Gold medal performances all the way!

Eve the Helpful
Hi everyone! Eve here.
Just wanted to let you all know I'm working on being helpful around the house. Like the other day, I tried to help Foster Mom make the bed.
But instead of saying 'thank-you' she said 'you-are-so-silly' and showed me a tug toy she needed taken off a door instead.
Haven't got it off yet, but I'm working on it. Gotta have something to do while I wait for my forever family to find me.
Love,
Eve

Harp fights another battle
Please keep Harp in your thoughts as he has begun his treatment for Heartworm which was discovered during a recent routine vet appointment. Heartworm can take up to 6 months to test positive and can be asymptomatic for longer. So, while he has been protected from reinfection by being on preventative since entering rescue, any infection he picked up before that was not caught on initial tests.
This sad pathetic face will now be a constant sight from behind crate bars for the next several weeks.
He would like to let you know that crate rest and leash walks only for going potty is the pits, and he will let you know loudly especially if he thinks someone else might be playing without him.
One leash has met its end when the normally well exercised and therefore well behaved Harp turned into a whirlwind of stir craziness and pulled a bunch of items on top of his crate through the bars.
And we are on day 4 of *MANY*...there are not enough stuffed Kongs in the world.
Keep Harp's foster mom in your thoughts as well because, dog help her, she's going to need it.
Thank you for your thoughts and support! It is because of efforts by NEBCR volunteers and supporters that we are able to help dogs like Harp.
Mostly we just want Harp to get back to doing things like this:
Harp will be temporarily unavailable until he is healthy again, but you can read more about him and other current dogs awaiting their forever homes on the NEBCR website available dogs page.
