Bo'Bo bounds into CP

Written by a CP Intakes volunteer


There was no time to contact anyone, if someone didn’t get Bo’Bo out of the shelter before the end of the day, Bo’Bo would be put to sleep by the next morning. Not knowing if he was a cairn terrier or a mix didn’t matter. He was a puppy, and there was no way she was going to let a puppy die. A Col. Potter volunteer left work early, and sped down to the not so local Humane Society to rescue this little man. Bo’Bo was literally saved with minutes of his PTS time.

Bo’Bo has a cold, so his vetting will take a little normal than usual. We’re not sure of his weight, or even his age (he is a puppy), but we are sure he is a CP kid now, safe and warm in his foster mom’s house.

Let’s all give Bo’Bo a warm CP welcome!

CP's foster puppy Dylan says " Hey! Where's my 'furebber' home?"

Written by Dylan's foster mom

Dylan started out life a few hours before his brother and sister,, making his birthday a day earlier. But! he was the smallest and was NOT TOO PLEASED to have been shoved out quite so soon by them! He came out fiesty and ready to make sure no one pushed him around again! As he got a bit older it was quite obvious that the silly boy needed a bit of Old fashioned BILOXI BOOT CAMP FOR WAYWARD FURBUTTS. His brother and sister have already been adopted and he is ready now for YOU to give him a forever home !

After a week of working for all his meals , nose tumps, and lots of time on his back, he began to see the error of his ways.

Today he is a funny little boy who loves playing with the new kitten and cuddling with the older one! He still has a few relapses into Mr Mouth,, but a gentle reminder or thump on the nose quickly stops that.

He is smart ! He learns really well! He has learned to sit for his treats and not include your fingers!

And he is A DADDY'S BOY! Nothing makes him happier than to sit in the recliner with DAD! and watch TV!

He will come to Bill in a nano second and to me,, well,,, like a stubborn little boy! ehehehehehe!

He sleeps in his crate all night and gleefully wakes you rattling the door! LET ME OUT!

He is being fostered in Mississippi and you can click here to learn more about him.

Welcome Manatee!

Written by an Intakes volunteer

Please help welcome our new puppy- Manatee.



This sweet little boy found himself at a shelter in Missouri, with no adopters interested in him. Col. Potter was contacted to see if we could help give him a chance at freedom.

He is estimated to be 8 months old, and is reported to be a very sweet boy. He moved to his foster home this weekend, and I doubt he will be there for very long!

Please vote once a day for Col. Potter in the Animal Rescue Site's "Shelter Challenge"! Search for Col. Potter in Medina, OH. Feel free to cross-post and please pass this on to your friends and neighbors!

Linus joins CP!

Written by a CP Intakes coordinator

Linus

Linus is an 11 month old male cairn who is a playful puppy and bundle of energy who proved to be too much for his owners.

I’m delighted to say we found a foster family who was looking for a rough and tumble, playful, Energizer Bunny male puppy.

Please give Linus a warm, playful Col. Potter welcome!

Puppy Poem Written By A CPCRN Volunteer

I have a Cairn puppy so ….
This year, at Christmas, we didn't have a tree,
The cost of paper towels, is surely killing me,
There are holes in the yard where holes shouldn't be,
And the house is littered with twigs and debris.

I have a Cairn puppy so ….
Things around here are no longer real normal,
When hubby and I go out, it's no longer formal,
It's a run to the store or a quick grab of supper,
We gotta get home to our new baby pupper.

I have a Cairn puppy so ….
Our life around here is surely not boring,
Did I mention, when he's sleeping, you surely hear snoring?
It doesn't matter how many fur butts you have in your home,
When you have a Cairn puppy, you're NEVER alone.

I have a Cairn puppy so ….
My life's an adventure, my heart is so happy,
My slippers are missing, and my hairs a bit nappy,
I can't even measure what he's returned to our souls,
A gap long left empty, he now fills & consoles.

I have a Cairn puppy so …
My life is complete.
"Hey, give that to me, that's not something you eat!!!!"
