Today's Dog-6-26-2018  | | Name: | Bob
| Age: | Eleven years old
| | Gender: | Male | Breed: | Jack Russell Terrier
| | Home: | Manchester, England, UK |
This is Bob! (Yes, his name really is Bob). He's my best friend in the whole world and I can't explain how much I love him, and how much he has helped me through life. Whenever times are tough, it's like he knows and will come over to comfort me and rest his head in my lap. I've had him since he was a puppy, and I treasure every second I spend with him. His previous owners didn't give him the proper care he needed when he was only young, so he came home with us.
He loves going for long walks, and despite being eleven years old he never wants to stop playing and never gets tired of it! Every time we go out he always has to find a stick that is the same size as himself, or even bigger, like he doesn't realise he's such a small little dog and how funny but cute this can look. In the summer, when the sun shines through our window, he always lays on the one patch of carpet that it shines onto and falls asleep in the sun. In winter, after going for long walks in the snow he loves to get back home and fall asleep with a heat bag and some head pats.
He can be a grumpy old boy sometimes, but really he just wants all the love and cuddles in the world. He's one of the best things that ever happened to me, and I love him so much.
      Hugs,Angel |

Today's Dog-6-27-2018 | | Name: | Piglet
| Age: | Seven years old
| | Gender: | Female | Breed: | Catahoula Leopard Dog
| | Home: | Lancaster, California, USA |
Piglet is a seven-year-old Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dog. Rigorously trained and certified to find answers for families on land and in water. Piglet and handler Lori Wells, are dedicated Volunteers serving many communities. They're frequently called upon to assist Law Enforcement in their search for the missing. Lori and Piglet commit 100's of hours annually to training and testing. This ensures they're always ready when called to search.
Piglet is my fourth Search and Rescue Catahoula. I have admired the breed for 20 years and love sharing my Volunteer work with them.
I believe it was "fate" that Piglet ended up with me. Nobody wanted her. People aren't typically attracted to Catahoulas with a lot of white. I thought that she was beautiful. And, she seemed to "think." She would sit back and just watch the other puppies. She'd join when she was ready to, and was always assessing.
Piglet's built a solid reputation with LE throughout California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. Not only for her unswerving work ethic and talented nose, but also for her infectious "smile." SShe always makes friends at PR events and fundraisers. Everyone wants to "Kiss the Pig." But, it's out in the field where she's most effective, an unparalleled search resource and comfort to the families she's helping. Piglet was called to locate a drowning victim. Searchers had spent seven days in the lake with no luck. On day eight, Piglet deployed and found the subject! Another example was when she deployed in a remote wilderness area to find a missing father/husband. After long hours in the field, Piglet found the subject who, sadly, was deceased. Though this is not the outcome wished for on any search, Piglet's diligence and tenacity in making the find allowed the wife and nine kids the answers needed to move forward. Like her smile, Piglet doesn't fade or give up!
When Piglet is not working, she basically oversees everything in the house. The other dogs, where she "prefers" her blankets to be, and of course re-arranging all of the other dogs toys and beds. Piglet is very easy going. Even in her work ethic. A dog does not have to bounce off the walls to get the job done.
Piglet is very affectionate. She loves attention and loves to kiss. She does well at PR events for our team. But, she absolutely will work independently of me to help find answers for grieving families. A search dog needs to do that. I guess you could say that she gives me the best of both worlds!
Piglet's up for a Hero Dog Award, her voting link through 7/11/2018 is here. She is in the semi finals now. Hope to be in the televised finals! Daily voting please. : )
Piglet also has her own Facebook page called Piglet Search and Rescue Hero Dog Awards. We are Volunteers that help return missing loved ones to their families.
     Love & Hugs,Angel |

Today's Dog-12-17-2019
| | Name: | Chocolate
| Age: | Four years old
| | Gender: | Male | Breed: | Chihuahua
| | Home: | Colorado, USA |
Chocolate (Choco for short) is four years old. Choco is a very sweet Chihuahua, he is special and different than other Chihuahuas, he will barely bark at you, and he will never let you down. He does not shiver at all. Many people say that he looks like Papi from "Chihuahua of Beverly Hills," he is just as brave as Papi is, he is ready to rescue you! He loves to chill in the sun!
Choco also loves snow, he gets pretty cold and his paws get frozen but he enjoys playing with me and my sister outside! When he was a puppy he was really tiny, we rescued him from a shelter, nobody wanted him because he was "ugly" and they were gonna put him down. But we wanted to adopt him! The bottom picture is from when he first came home.
He knows how to sit and lay down, his favorite toys are squeaky toys (his favorite is a duck) and he loves greenies - so he always has good breath! He is a really happy dog now. |
Hugs, Angel |
