DOTTIE Is In Our Neighborhood!

This is Dottie, the newest member of the Hopper-Bellew family, along with her sister, Dixie who I introduced you to below. Dottie was lucky because she was rescued by such a loving family. She was taken to the doctor by her previous owners with a bone stuck in her throat. They didn't want to pay for her medical costs and asked that she be put to sleep. Good thing the vet decided to help her and found her a new home. She is very cute, I got to meet her in person at the dog park. She's a little shy around other dogs but really sweet. She (and Dixie) are named after Dorothea Dix, the famous UU woman who did a lot to help prisoners and the mentally ill. What a great ending to a very scary story, don't you think?

Peace, Love and Happiness,
Remy

Hi Dottie, and welcome to our neighborhood. I hope I can meet you some day. Playing and eating are my favorite things. Too bad we can't eat bones that might choke us. I could eat every bone in the world, but it might take me two sittings. That's just a fantasy, because I try to stay in shape so I can grow up to be a service dog, which is what I really want.
Love,
Your Friend Vertex, CCI Dog

Hi Remy, my name is Trudy. My foster mom just saw your blog and wondered if you knew anyone who is looking for a dog as nice as I am to adopt. My foster family loves me a lot (they saved me from being red-listed at the LA pound), and they think I am ready now to find my very own special family. I could send you my picture if you know anyone who would like to see it! In my old life I had puppies at a very young age and was left at the pound for a month, and it was very sad and scarey. But now I have my doggie joie de vivre back, thanks to my foster sister Lacy (a Lab) and the rest of my family, and I am acting like a puppy myself again. I was so happy to find your stories. There ARE happy endings.
Kisses, Trudy

Hi Deborah-

I'm sorry I didn't see this email until now, but you should email me at NeighborhoodDog@yahoo.com and we can talk more about Trudy. If she hasn't found a home yet I'd be happy to put her up on our website!

Love,
Remy
