Isis & Allie
Isis & Allie are littermates who were turned over to rescue when their owner became ill and could no longer care for them. They moved from their home in southern MA to Maine where they were briefly fostered to their permanent home with Ferzana and John in NH. Both girls have adapted well to country life and enjoy gardening and snowball fights.
Java
Java (Bean) was found wandering the streets of East Providence Rhode Island last summer. He was matted, severely emaciated and had teeth in horrible condition. Java was slated to go to Maine to be fostered, but when Ms. Tranni picked him up at the shelter, one look was all it took. He went right home with her and her husband Austin and hasn't left since! Now 15 lbs later, with clean teeth and a gorgeous black coat, he is one happy puppy! (Well ok, he's really 11 years old.) Tranni's vet attributes his improvement to a diet of Tranni's special doggie stew and lasagna!
Simon
Simon is a delightful 4 year old black & tan who was one of a group of 18 Afghans seized by animal control in Pennsylvania. He has a wonderful, loving temperament. None of these dogs knew anything about living in a house. His foster family gave him a great start in the right direction and his new family is hard at work teaching him to relax on the couch with his toys. The good news is that he is very smart and anxious to please, so this won't be a difficult job. Simon is a little guy and only weighed 38 lbs when he was rescued but he has an enormous personality! He was adopted by Pat and Leon in NH and looks forward to a wonderful pampered life.
Laredo
Laredo (now Brook) is one of 18 Afghans (and many other breeds) seized by Animal Control in Chambersburg, PA because of severe neglect. He is a lovely little cream 2 year old who weighs in at 42 lbs. His coat was severely matted and caked with feces and he was infested with worms. The poor boy didn't know how to walk on a leash and couldn't do stairs. He probably had never set foot in a house in his short and unhappy life. After being briefly fostered by Amy Mero in MA, Brook was adopted by Marie & Bill in CT who had lost their other Afghans to age and illness and were desperately in need of another Afghan to love. Laredo can now climb stairs and has learned that sleeping on the bed is where every Afghan belongs.
