Totally Terrific Thomas

Hey folks, my name is Thomas and I'm the happiest GSP boy this side of the Mississippi!! I am very lucky to be alive, as I found myself in a shelter in the country. A lot of rescue people wanted me to have a chance to be a young spotty dog, so they worked together to help me and another GSP boy get a ride to foster care.

When the rescue lady went to the shelter to tell them she was going to help me, the shelter people started crying. You see, I had been at the shelter place for a while, longer than any other dog there, and still no one wanted a happy boy like me. The shelter people didn't understand it either, but they were going to have to make me go to sleep. The day before the rescue lady came they were going to make me go to sleep, but something told them to wait...and then the rescue lady came and I was safe!! The shelter people were really happy, cuz they liked me a lot.

I am almost a year old, and my foster mom says I go, go, go! I am just doing what young GSP boys do...PLAY! I really like to wrestle with my buddies here, and don't mind even that one of my friends is really big.

I am really trying hard to learn from my foster mom (she is really smart). I am very sweet and want to be by your side all the time, except when I am playing, of course...

I think cats are fun to chase, so I need to go live where there aren't any kitties. I like to run with my foster mom on-leash--she is training for something called a mary-thon, and she says I could probably win one...

Email argsprescue@rocketmail.com for an application to adopt me. I'm being fostered in Arkansas, but I can hitch a ride to almost anywhere to be united with my forever family.

It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This...

Hi, my name is Chase. My brother and I are in rescue because no one purchased us from our breeder. I am glad we didn't go live with just anybody. My foster mom and her rescue friends will make sure we get the most awesome homes ever. I am very sweet and just had my first birthday on September 24. I like to point birds in the yard, but haven't been hunting yet.

I am such a good boy that I can stay in the house by myself when my foster mom is gone and I don't even have to stay in a crate. I know that I better be on my best behavior so that a really nice person will adopt me. I am a quiet GSP and really like to be close to my person. I don't jump up, I just nudge you with my liver nose and tell you to pet me, please. I am about 50 lbs and may grow just a little bit more. I'm in Arkansas, but my foster mom has transport contacts that can help me get to my new home. Email argsprescue@rocketmail.com to talk to my foster mom about adopting me.

Handsome Fella In Search of Lifetime Companion...

Hi, folks. My name is Junior and I just had my first-ever birthday on September 24th. My foster mom said as my present I got to be neutered. I don't think that was a very nice present, but she knows best.

My brother and I are in rescue cuz our we didn't sell when we were little puppies, although all of our brothers and sisters found their homes. I am glad we didn't sell to just anyone--my foster mom and her rescue friends will do a good job of finding the very bestest home for me.

I am a bigger boy at about 60 lbs. I like to point birds in the yard but have not been hunting yet. I think I would like to chase cats, so a home without cats would be best for me. I like other dogs, but I really like to cuddle with people.. I like to put my big clunky head in laps. I am working on not pulling on a leash, but I do know how to sit when I am told. I am quiet in a crate and know that it means time to settle down.

Email my foster mom at argsprescue@rocketmail.com to tell her you want to adopt me. Thanks!

The Fabulous Freya - In Search Of A Home

Meet Freya! She has been through a lot over the last few months. She had enjoyed a lovely life with her adoptive mom, Kat, in NM. Kat adopted her from the AZ GSP Rescue. Kat has spent her career in the military, and had been told she would remain in the US until retirement. So, she fulfilled her adult-life dream, and adopted two dogs from the AZ rescue, Odin and Freya. She adored her “kids” and provided them with tons of love and attention. Kat was shocked to receive the news that she would be transferring to Germany, for a three-year period. She knew the stress of the trip, quarantine, and frequent boarding while she was “in the field” would be too much for her loving GSPs. So, she asked GSP Rescue for help.

There were no open adoptive homes in AZ/NM, as it can be challenging to place a pair of dogs together. We desperately wanted to place them together. After all, they were losing their mom, they shouldn’t have to lose one another as well. We found a lovely home for them in Maine. The family had two young boys and were willing to adopt Odin and Freya together. Through the help of a vast volunteer transport network, Odin and Freya were transported by car, cross-country, from NM to Maine.

Everything was going well until Odin started exhibiting signs of pain and soreness. It escalated to the point that he was very grouchy with the two young boys in the home. The family took him to the vet, and after some testing, it was determined he had Ehrlichiosis, a tick-borne illness. Given his obvious discomfort, and the fact there were two children in the home, we made the decision to move both Odin and Freya to a foster home in Maine. The foster Dad is a breeder, and the foster mom, a Vet. Odin’s pain became even more unbearable, and a blood test revealed he was also in kidney failure. We made the very tearful decision to end Odin’s suffering.

So, poor little Freya has lost her mom, her “old” home, her adoptive home, and now, her companion, Odin. She is doing well, despite all of the changes. However, she really needs a home with another doggy companion. Freya is remarkably bright and very much in tune with people and other dogs. She follows her foster dad around the house, and stays very close. He feels she worries a bit, given all of the changes, but knows she’ll be much more confident once she has a stable home life again.

Her foster dad says:
“Freya has been very easy to train. She was a terrible puller on the leash, but I was able to explain what "heel" means in just a few minutes. We are crate training Freya, and she appreciates having her own "spot." She will disappear into her crate. She has prey drive. She located the mouse nest in the wood pile with her nose and kind of stuttered to a stop. She's really put together well and has great muscle tone. Freya loves riding in the car. She curls up quietly on the back seat when we are moving, but gets up and looks around when we start turning and stopping. Freya is probably the quietest GSP I have ever known. She rarely barks, seldom whines. Freya is very respectful when taking treats from your hand. She occasionally throws a fit in her crate, but she's just trying to train us to let her out (it doesn't work here). Most of the time, crate time is quiet time and she has figured that out pretty fast. Freya is going to stick to her new owner like glue. She's very well behaved but she wants someone to set limits and boundaries for her. Giving her a job like obedience or rally would be really fun for you and her. Freya is good with kids and reportedly good around cats.”

Military Pet In Need of Forever Home...

Hi, my name is Pepper. I used to live with my dad. We had lots of fun together. My dad had to go to this place called WAR. I'm not sure where that is, but my dad said he had to go so that people like you could live here and be safe. My dad sent me to live with his sister, but she had too many dogs and I was in danger of getting sent to a place called the POUND. I have heard about the pound, and it sounds like a scary place. Now I am safe in foster care in AR. I am a very nice boy--I like other dogs and people. The jury is still out on cats--if I see one I will let you know how it goes between me and Mr. Cat. I don't mind staying in a crate, but I can be left alone in the house and don't tear anything up. I am housebroken (my dad taught me really good manners) and I am an all-around good boy. I really want to have a home again--it's nice here, but I want a family or person all to myself. Email my foster mom at argsprescue@rocketmail.com to find out about adopting me. My foster mom is so cool, she can get me a ride to almost anywhere, so don't hesitate to ask!

Rest In Peace, Sweet Odin...

Today, we had to say goodbye to dear Odin, a male recently transported from NM to Maine, due to his "mom's" military transfer. Many of you may remember his story (placed with "sister" Freya...details at link below). Odin had severe chronic Ehrlichia, which had gone undetected and untreated. Unfortunately, he had severe joint pain as a result, and was in kidney failure. (Link to the original post: http://gsp-rescue.blogspot.com/2009/06/military-transfer-to-germany-will-leave.html)

His amazing foster dad, Todd Chrisman (and his foster mom, Dr. Amanda) were at his side as he crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

Odin was so young...too young to leave this world. He had so much more love to give. I am so thankful for Todd and Dr. Amanda for caring for Odin and Freya over these last few weeks. They will see Freya through yet another (most difficult) adjustment. Hopefully soon, she'll be on her way to a forever home, where she'll meet another doggy companion to fill Odin's shoes. She so adored Odin...

Please folks, have your dogs tested for ALL tick-borne illnesses. If caught early, they can be treated, usually quite successfully. If left untreated, there is little hope. Please ask your vet to perform the SNAP 3Dx Test, to diagnose tick-borne illness in your dog...before it's too late.

Two Midwest Boys in DESPERATE Need!

I have just learned of two, mature, WONDERFUL male GSPs in need in the Midwest. The local rescue is full to BEYOND CAPACITY, so they simply cannot get thest guys out of the shelter.

Ranger (left photo) is a gentle boy, five years old. He was turned in by his owners because he was jumping their fence. He is a great guy, and would probably be fine with a 6ft fence (owners had 4ft), or invisible fence. I am told he prefers a home with older children. He would be a wonderful walking or hiking companion for an active family. Five years is YOUNG by GSP standards, so he'd be a FABULOUS exercise partner. Ranger is in Wichita, KS.

If you can provide a foster or adoptive home for Ranger, please contact:

Jack (right photo) is an awesome boy! He is seven years young, active and very friendly. He was surrendered to a MO shelter due to financial strain on his family. They simply could not afford to keep Jack and his companion dog, so they both arrived together. She was adopted, leaving poor Jack all alone without his family OR his companion. He's so lonely, and just wants a family to call his own again. Won't you consider making room at your feet (or the end of your sofa) for Jack?

In Memory of Keira

I received a note today from a former adopter. In my early days of rescue, I was living in Massachusetts. I met Joan, a wonderful, loving woman, willing to open her heart and home to two GSPs in desperate need. They had only hours left to live in a NY shelter, and we arranged (very quickly) transport to Massachusetts. Joan fostered one of the girls, and adopted the other (Ceilidh). Joan and I had a special bond from our first phone conversation. She has always been one of "those people" you never forget, and one you love the minute you meet her.

Last summer, Joan adopted an English Pointer that was terminally ill. She gave her a year of love, warmth, play time and plenty of attention. She lost her girl recently, and shared her story with me. Joan's note and Keira's story are below.

Michelle,

We had to say good-bye to Keira (story below). We were in the process of adopting her when your beloved Pete passed away. I was going to write you about Keira and tell you that Pete's reach and influence was wider than you may have imagined. Our Keira got 14 months of care, attention, and love because you adopted Pete, met me, helped me adopt Ceilidh and then Abby (now Kila). Along the way, I fostered a dog named Darcy and her "new" mom has adopted another GSP and helps transport for GSP Rescue. I'll bet this chain is just the tip of Pete's influence!!!

Ceilidh is still going strong - although very deaf and vision impaired. She is sooo, sooo, sooo very special to me that I cannot begin to tell you.

Please think of us from time to time and know that Pete - and you - have enriched my life so much.

Joan


Keira's Story

Keira, our beloved English Pointer, was found wandering with two GSPs in a game reserve in Massachusetts by the town animal control officer. The three wilderness companions were taken to a kennel because the town has no town kennel. The owner got paid for boarding until the ACO was satisfied that the owners could not be found. At that time the kennel owner became the owner.

GSP Rescue of NE took control of the two GSPs and set about to find foster homes for them.

There was no English Pointer Rescue on the East Coast to help her, so Keira’s life might have ended at this point, except for her wonderful personality. Because she was so sweet, the kennel owner tried to keep her until a new home could be found, but she had a very large tumor on her belly and was believed to be 10 years old (or more). No home could be found. Then one of the kennel workers who was charmed by Keira worked at a reduced rate of pay to fund Keira’s board.

At about this time, Suzanne, a volunteer from GSP rescue who came to the kennel to exercise the GSPs, got to know Keira, named her “Little Lady” and started taking her for walks as well as the GSPs. Suzanne relayed Little Lady’s plight to GSP Rescue of NE’s management and we were made aware of her situation.

On June 10th of 2008, I drove from Northern Maine to Southern Maine to pick Little Lady up and bring her to her forever home with us. We named her Keira. Our vet helped us find a great veterinary surgeon in Bangor who removed her tumor. After she recuperated, we took her to our summer home in Nova Scotia where she spent the last year happily walking with us chasing butterflies, shore birds and, in the cold weather, tennis balls. She continued to win the hearts of everyone who met her. However, even all her kindness, love and good humor could not protect her from the cancer within and she succumbed last Thursday.

She brightened our lives and warmed our hearts and we are grateful for knowing her and to all those who helped her and us.

DESPERATE IN KY

Three beautiful young females were dumped in a KY shelter this week, by their owner. All of the local foster homes are full, and we are in desperate need of temporary foster homes. If you can assist, please contact Adriana, asokach@yahoo.com.

The girls have been vaccinated at the shelter, and will be spayed prior to foster or adoptive placement. They need a soft place to call home until their forever homes can be found. They are very friendly and oh so sweet. They deserve a shot at a new life!! Pic of one of the girls featured here. They are all lookers! :-)
