PICTURE PERFECT
DAWG is lucky enough to have Susan C as a member.
She's a wonderful photographer and spends a lot of time
getting shots for our website. All of her photos are great,
but sometimes the click of the camera shutter captures
some particularly awesome shots.
Such was the case with Frank and Herbert. We are not
usually able to let the dogs play together. But Frank and
Herbert came into the shelter together and because of
a lack of room, they were sharing a kennel. So they
obviously got along and it was safe to let them play
together in the exercise yard. Just look at the results.

Didn't Susan capture the magic of these two dogs!
To find out more about Frank, Herbert, and the many
other dogs and cats waiting for forever homes, go to
the DAWG website.

BLIND BETTY
WILL YOU ADOPT ME? OR BE MY FOSTER
FAMILY UNTIL I FIND A FOREVER HOME?

Hi. I'm Betty
and I'm blind.
I was picked
up wandering
aimlessly on a
busy road. I was
very lucky to
not get hit by
one of the many
cars that passed
me by—without
stopping to help.
But then I heard
the sound of a
vehicle braking
and a door opening.
Suddenly, there were gentle hands petting me and scooping
me up.
Now I'm in the shelter. It was pretty scary at first, but it was
clean and there was food, water, and a bed with a thick quilt.
I'm in a fairly small kennel, so it didn't take me long to learn
my territory. I did get a few bruises on my nose until I had
the wall locations firmly fixed in my mind. Then I located
the flap to the outside. That's good because I'm very house-
trained and was pleased to find a place where I could do
my business.
I'm a sweet, loving girl who walks well on leash (with
guidance, of course). I learn very quickly and would make
a grand addition to your family.
Is there a place in your heart for me?
There's plenty of room in mine for you!

10-MILE TOMMY

Tommy went for a 10-mile
ride today without getting
sick. He loves to ride with
his head out the window and
his ears flapping in the wind.
He smiled the whole way.
Cherie
This was a real milestone for Tommy. At first, he
couldn't make it even a quarter mile. But he's always
up for a ride anyway.
Tommy is still looking for a forever home. To learn
more about this wonderful dog, see our Sept. 7 blog
and also go to the DAWG website.

Introducing Fluffy the DAWG

Hi. I'm Fluffy the DAWG. I've been
the DAWG mascot for many years

And now DAWG has a blog,
and I get to share my thoughts
with the world! You'll be
hearing from me regularly.
In fact, let's start right now.
