Adopted Dog Monday

I am so glad that we are kicking off Black Dog and Cat month with some black dog adoption news!

Bentley, a black Pomeranian mix, was adopted this weekend. I think we will all remember him for his LOVE of tennis balls. He showed off his mad skills at his photo shoot with Sarah last week. I couldn't pick just one and had to include 2 photos for his adoption update!






Levi, an English Cocker Spaniel, also went to his new home this weekend. Levi has a penchant for eating things that he should not -- like socks. He is very lucky to have found a new family who understands just how important it is to make sure that all tempting items are kept out of Levi's reach to avoid (another) expensive surgery to remove the foreign object. His new family has owned English Cockers in the past as well and they are looking forward to enjoying all of Levi's finer qualities as well. We also want to thank Levi's surrendering owner who put Levi's needs before her heart and helped us to find him a new home without small children where stray socks and other tempting items can more easily be kept out of his reach.

Two more big black lab boys -- Garth and Buddy -- went to foster-with-intent homes this weekend. We have our paws crossed for these guys as well.

Pet Haven has declared February as Black Dog and Cat Month. All month long we will be featuring our adoptable black dogs on the dog blog. We will also be working to educate people about "Black Dog Syndrome" and encourage everyone to take a 2nd look at black dogs when they are considering adoption.
