    Show me your rescued dogs!
    I LOVE dogs and it would be great to see other people post theirs here! I have two rescued dogs- Charlie and Milo.

    This is Charlie! He is a Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. He is very smart and energetic!

    And here's Milo! He's a min pin. He is very sweet and loves to cuddle. He hates crows more than anything.

    Now show me yours! :D

    Nice looking critters you have there! Glad that they are in better hands now. :)

    I have two Rescues as well. Dolly in the middle came from a rescue agency.

    Whisper on the left was not a formal Recue, but neglected outside while the woman's favorite dog was always at her side in the house.

    I inherited Ruffles on the right after my Dad passed on.

    Because of their hard lives, they are spoiled beyond compare. I am here for them.

    Before they came along, I would never allow dogs on the furniture. Looking back, that was an injustice to my dogs of past, considering the love and service they gave me and my family.

    Aww, your pups are so cute! One of my very close friends has a collie- they are such sweet dogs. Her dog, Isabelle, was quite funny at times. She hated going in the car so she would throw herself on the ground and refuse to get up whenever we tried to get her to the dog park (she LOVED the dog park, just not the ride). How can people be so awful? Don't have pets if you aren't going to treat them right! My poor Milo is from Costa Rica and they docked his tail by putting a rubber-band on his tail for weeks :/ He was also hit by a car and his owners didn't want him after that.

    Also, I'm truly sorry for the loss of your dad. Almost exactly a year ago I lost my father as well...I know how hard it is and I hope you are coping well.

    Charlie always sleeps at end of my bed and Milo sleeps with me under the covers. Charlie is allowed on the bed but I toss and turn a lot and he, being a 60 pound dog, does not like that so he gets "angry" and sleeps on the floor. Milo doesn't take up much room so he doesn't mind my restlessness.

    Thank you for the kind words Kira. :)

    My previous Collie would refuse to ride in the car too. But it turned out that she had car sickness from being transported in the back of a Uhaul from FL to TX when she was a pup. That's a lot of rocking for a few days!

    Dolly normally sleeps with me. She has serious abandonment issues, especially if I leave the house for more than 30 minutes or so. She's very frantic when I get home. Fortunately I work from home!

    I enjoyed reading about your dogs. :)

    This is Letty. She's a Rott/Husky/maybe Shepherd? mix. She was about five or six when we picked her up from a local kill shelter. She's so awesome - she actually helped us a lot in raising our second dog, Aries (a GSD) to become a decent member of canine society. We've recently had to put her on a diet because she hates to run and loves to eat, and unfortunately her hips aren't getting any younger :( Anyway, I love her to pieces!

    Yay rescue dogs! Our dog is not a rescue, I'm afraid-- but funny story, we bought her at a reptile show. Went in to try and find an adult female crested gecko, walked out with a mixed breed puppy! :rofl: (And I do have one and a half rescue cats!)

    This is Oliver, Ollie for short. His siblings and him were found on the side of the road at 5 weeks old by a co worker of my mom's. All the other puppies went home with other co workers but Ollie had something wrong with his eye and none of the co workers would take him so my mom text me asking if I could take him or foster him. So I took him and he's my big baby! He had an ulcer in his eye when we got him, he fell and broke his left back leg when he was 4 months and now he has valley fever but despite all that he is a goof that loves to play ball and loves to cuddle and thinks he is still 5 pounds and not 65 lol.

    I don't have any pictures on my computer however the 5 dogs in my signature are rescue dogs, and we always have a foster running around our house. We work with a German Shepherd rescue, working so closely with all the pups makes me feel like they are mine!

    This is my Alyssum. She was surrendered to me at the veterinary hospital where I used to work when she was 7 months old. Her original owner lost his house to foreclosure and abandoned his 5 outdoor-only dogs to starve to death in the backyard. After a week, the neighbors hopped the fence and rescued the dogs. Alyssum was very sick and the person who took her in could not afford to treat her, so I accepted her and got her better. And she decided I was the only safe person, so it made it impossible to rehome her. After all, it's hard to say to someone "Please adopt this small dog that is going to cower from you and growl at you constantly, yes I know she seems fine with me and she is, but she doesn't like you so please adopt her."

    The day after I got her, doing her "peta poster"

    Depending on how I shave her, she can look like so many different breeds. It also takes me a few days to recognise her after shaving her.


    Mostly Full fluff (I have to keep her face shaved so she can *see*):

    Keeping the ears (some) and tail (and the beard because I love her beard):

    Many years ago my Father rescued a small Terrier of some sort from the city dump. She turned out like Allysum ^^^^^. She would hide under my Father's bed all day. When he came home from work she would come out dance on two legs and then stick to him. She would not come out for anyone else the dozen or so years that we had her.

    Tommy, the tri-color beagle, and Gimli/Gimmi, the red and white beagle, came from a beagle rescue group. Pippin is a husky mix, (size and tail aren't quite all husky, but personality is) who came from a local shelter.

    This is a little girl we picked up from a rescue who found her roaming the streets. Poor little thing was extremely thin when we first got her and you could feel every bone. We are told she is Dachshund Terrier mix. Her name is Zoey but her nickname is "Street Rat."
