Story

A note from Red's Buddy: I took Red on a walk for the first time on Monday. It was a very pleasant experience. A 3 years old Catahoula Leopard/Cattle dog mix, he arrived at the shelter on 09/17. We first tried the playground where Red chased the tennis ball that he systematically brought back. He then sat, ready for the next throw. Before we left for our walk, he took care of business. He barked in a friendly manner, wanting to engage with another dog on the other side of the fence. He quickly lost interest and moved on. Red stayed with me, good on the leash. He appreciated the treats which he took laying down. When I stopped to record some observations on the spot, he sat next to me, unhurried and calm. He was totally carefree while people passed by, by foot or on bikes. He did not mind the annoying gun range (which disturbs so many other pups at the shelter). He never lost his cool. The whole time, he was patient and affectionate. Once back at the parking lot, while I opened the hatch, he jumped in right away, uninvited. That sealed the deal. I was going to take Red again, this time downtown. Yesterday I arranged to pick Red up in the early morning, We were going to meet a couple of girlfriends. The 4 of us roamed around for a couple of hours, met several people complimenting Red for his good behavior. He would have liked to interact with pups, wagging his tail, ready to play. The weather was so great that we decided to stop at 11th Street for a bite to eat. Although surrounded by a couple of other dogs, Red remained collected, sitting or lounging by our table. He was so patient! He never lost his cool. Trusting, Red was very easy to handle. His previous owner did a great job teaching him excellent manners. He is healthy and laid-back. My friends gave him an A+ and I decided I would take him to Anarchy Brewing this coming Friday (3 PM to 4.30 PM) for some interaction with other dogs. Maybe I will meet you there.

Story

From Virgli's volunteer buddy: Let's talk about Virgil. He is one of my favorite pups at the shelter right now. A year and 7 months old, Virgil is a character. He's made huge progress since he arrived on September 3rd, and instead of regressing like some pups do in a shelter environment, this boy has learned some grown up lessons. I remember taking him out once, teaming up with another volunteer and Virgil's partner when they first arrived. He was overwhelmed by the other dog the whole time. We managed to go across a bridge with the 2 in tow, but when it was time to go back, neither would want to venture on the bridge again. We tried everything but the more we tried the more they pancaked. It was quite funny to see how they both had decided that they would not do it, some kind of conspiracy, leaving us in a bind. We finally resorted to calling LPCHS for help and one of the behaviorists had to carry each one back across. Ouch my back!!! Since then, Virgil is blossoming. He always has a smile on his face. He loves going to the playground and practice some kind of gymnastics. He is friendly with everybody and likes other dogs. He is confident and obedient. We saw that again this past Saturday when we took him out with two other pups for a stroll around downtown. He was a perfect gentleman with both females. He acted responsibly the whole time, whether with humans or other dogs strolling down Main. He was patient while we stopped to talk to people interested in meeting the three pups. He was affectionate with all of us. It was such an enjoyable walk for everyone. No stress, no discomfort, not strife. He did refuse to get into the back of my car but loved the ride in the yellow beetle of one other volunteer. We are so proud of Virgil's immense progress and newfound maturity. He is definitely ready for his forever home. Please come and check him out.
