Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
This week I’m going to tell you about two happy-go-lucky dogs, both with great senses of humor. Last Sunday they kept us laughing with their antics. To them, the treat jar is always half full and spending time with people i… Continue reading →

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
First of all, some great adoption news! Remember Johnny from last week’s post? He has something to tell you!

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
News Flash! Macy, our always-smiling girl from last week’s post, wanted you to know what happened last Saturday…

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
In last week’s Statesman Journal, there was an article titled “Surprising Ways Owning a Dog is Good for Your Health” by Len Canter. Many of the ways I’ve heard before, like getting you to exercise and relieving stress. But there… Continue reading →

July 10, 2019 / Martha / Adopting, Dogs

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
This week’s post will feature only two dogs. My husband just had hip replacement surgery and I’m his “coach” (that really is a thing!) so my blog prep-time is less this week. But the two dogs I’m going to tell you about are very… Continue reading →

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
I have never featured the same dog two posts in a row. However, this week I am writing about JD for a second time. You will find it hard to believe that this week’s pictures are of our same JD.

Need a lap buddy? Are you a trave… Continue reading →

June 19, 2019 / Martha / Adopting, Dogs

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
When I arrived at WHS on Sunday, I saw Jolene out in a yard with Rocky, and Linda was in the next one with Pam. I decided to see what they were up to on a lovely June morning. Both dogs were having a blast. Rocky and Jolene were… Continue reading →

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
Usually I post about dog adoptions only on my WHS Adopt an Oregon Dog Facebook page. But sometimes there is one so special that I write about it in my blog post, as well. Such is the case with—drum roll—Terry! If you are a regul… Continue reading →

Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
It’s June! Schools will soon be out, the weather is great, and families will have more time together. We’re hoping that it will be a great summer for many shelter dogs to find their forever homes. This week I’m going to tell you… Continue reading →
