The Spring Crowd!

Looks like a lot of people have decided to adopt new family members for spring. Which means St.Clouds Rescue has been able to pull extra dogs lately. Who knew St. Bernard’s would be so popular in Dallas. Today I was met with quite a surprise when I got out to St.Clouds Rescue when I was not met with the usual gentle giants. In their place was a group off adorable small dogs that where so sweet and just a joy to photograph. Although they did make up for the lack of St.Bernard by having one super model saint named Bruno who I could have photographed all day. So with out further ado.

More on him later!

Here is Whisky, Not really sure what bread she really is but her appearance reminds you of a Springer spaniel and Dachshund. Whiskey is 24 pounds and is full grown. We estimate her age to be between 1 and 2. She likes to let you know she is in the house. She loves attention, being around other dogs but her most favorite is to be around other people. She enjoys being on the bed snuggling with you. Her coat is the same texture of silk and the mahogany color and white show off her beautiful smile.

undefinedundefinedThen there was Swiffer a 24 pound, 4 year old, terrier mix that could pass as Benjis twin. He has a to die for personality, so animated and full of life. He loves attention, food and to be by your side. Swiffer gets along well with other dogs after he has had a chance to sniff them. He is all talk and no action. When you look at these big brown eyes and cute black nose you will fall in love with him. As you notice in this picture his hair is cut short. Swiffer came to us from a shelter that was over populated and his coat was matted to the skin.

undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedSweet Bailey is a great combination of the perfect dog, she only weighs 51 pounds, medium size dog. She loves attention however is not overbearing. She does not jump on people and is not a barker. She enjoys running in the backyard and playing. When she is tired though, she loves to cuddle up in her bed to take a nap. She does not get on furniture, yet To our best guess, we would say she is St. Bernard, Great Pyrenees, Collie mix. Bailey is currently heartworm positive and is going through treatment. She will be available for adoption once the treatment is complete. Her coat is so soft and silky you will enjoy petting her.

undefinedundefinedWhich brings us back to Bruno, Sweet Bruno. Bruno is a breathtaking, full grown, 2 year old St. Bernard that easily could be a show dog. He is an outstanding specimen of what St. Bernards should look and act like. Bruno came to us from a shelter as a stray. He has been neutered, is current on all vaccines and is heartworm negative. Since he was recently neutered we have not had him around any male dogs. He currently rooms with a female is very sweet to her. He loves to run and enjoys playing outside. He is your typical personality of a young and fun St. Bernard.

undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedAnd one parting photo of Bruno’s roomate Bridget  a 3 year old female St. Bernard that was surrendered by her owner due to a family situation. She is a smaller female saint that weights approximately 120 pounds. Bridget is a rough coat Saint; . We are working on housebreaking although she still has some accidents. Bridget plays very well with two other male Saints on a daily basis. She has met small children and likes their attention and petting.

Rescues Gallore!

Say hello to the new batch of rescues from St.Clouds Rescue. I managed to get out the before the snow hit and got to make many new friends. Lets start with the Old English sheepdogs Tazz and Chipper they are both 3 years old and love to herd and run! Chipper got his name because when he meets new people he chirps.

Tazz

Chipper

Next we have Benjamin he was super lovable and unfortunately not a Saint Lion hybrid but was just really matted when he came in. But even after the hair grows back he will still be lion hearted!

Miss Annabel is an owner surrender who’s family lost their house and had to move out of state. She was so beautiful and lovable it was hard not to just put down the camera and pet her for the rest of the day.

The rest of these guys where just out playing with the new kids if you see anyone you like please give St.Clouds a call or email and they will be able to introduce you.

The last one is me collecting my payment for the photos and boy do they pay well!

Vet Depot Helps St.Clouds Rescue

I wanted to share with everyone a company that I met through St.Clouds Rescue. They are doing a lot of great things to help rescues. If you happen to run or are part of a rescue I recommend you go to http://www.vetdepot.com/donations.html to see if they can help you out as well.

I emailed Kimberly from VetDepot looking for some information about what they offer pet owners and she sent me a great summary of their service…

Responsible pet owners do whatever they can to keep their lovable companions healthy and happy. There are many over-the-counter and prescription pet medications available that can contribute to the length and quality of your pet’s life, but purchasing these medications can get expensive. Owners are now able to offset some of the cost of pet meds by purchasing them from credible online retailers like VetDepot.

This is a great way for pet owners to save money and time, but it’s important for consumers to only purchase from responsible online pet medication retailers to ensure quality and safety. Make sure to look for sites only offer U.S. EPA/FDA approved pet products.  Also, prescription products always require a prescription- so a responsible online retailer should require proof of that prescription. Lastly, it’s important to order the correct medications for your pet’s weight bracket and follow all dosing instructions for any products you order.

By keeping these few things in mind, you can save money by ordering pet meds online while having the peace of mind that your pet’s health is in good hands.
