Deacon & Dutch




Deacon is almost 4 months old, and weighed in this past weekend at a very healthy 64lbs! He literally grows before our eyes! He is a wonderful puppy and all he wants to do in life is eat, sleep, play and sleep! Since we brought him home,he has done his best to entice his siblings with him, but to no avail.

Within the last week though, things have turn around for little guy. Zachey has tries to play, which Deacon reacts to by falling on the ground and crying in fear- I must say he is not the bravest mastiff around!!! Tonight, we were stunnned and completely entertained that Deac and Dutchie started to play---who knew a dying old lady still had it in her? She had to tell him off a few times, and gave him a few "bitch slaps" to the head, but he was so happy! She has always shown a lot of patience to him, and it was wonderful to see them have fun tonight!

Officially a Family of 7


We are officially a family of 7, with the latest addition of our most recent foster, now permanent foster,Duchess.

Dutchie came into rescue on 12-1-07, and has been with us ever since. To make a long story short, she has a bad back and a severe heart condition-both of which are not helping her quality of life. It has been quite clear for a while now that Dutch 100% believe she belongs to us, and we cannot bear the thought of making her leave us at this point.

We are afraid she may only have a short time left with us and we are literally making day to day observations to make sure she is doing ok. I just wanted her to belong to someone before her time came, and I am thrilled she has chosen us!
