Emma

(July '11) "Emma has settled in very nicely, and I think she understands that this is her forever home. She is sweet as ever. We have spent a lot of time at the lake since it has been so hot, and she is adapting very quickly. She has gone swimming, and she is learning how to doggie dive off the back of the boat (with her life jacket on of course.) She also had her first river canoe trip Saturday afternoon, and she loved wading in the shallow water. She has been to the dog park enough to learn the proper doggie etiquette, and she has made several furry friends. We will keep everyone at Proverbs posted as Emma gets to experience new adventures with the family. This fall it there will be lots of camping and off-roading, so we will send pictures. Thank you for Emma and the happiness she adds to our family!"

Lexie

(July '11) "Eva (Lexie) from January transport is doing great. She gets in her share of puppy trouble (note picture with porcupine quills) but basically is well behaved – yes we need to work on the come command."

Bolton

(July '11 Baxter and Bolton) "Thank you and Proverbs 12:10 for all you do for God’s creatures."

Bradley

(June '11) Hemi, formerly Bradley, adopted in April.

Nibbler

(June '11) "Attached is a picture of the rough life Barney (the name we gave Nibbler) is now living. Barney and our golden retriever are the best of buddies. Barney sleeps in the bed with us at night. He is absolutely the sweetest animal we have ever owned. I do not understand why anyone would give up this little westie, but we certainly are glad they did. Thank you all for what you do."
