View my complete profile

ARCH URO1 Maisy, CD-C, RL2, RL1X2, CGC

DOB: 10.3.06
Gotcha Day: 1.21.07
Maisy is a corgi-poodle mix, and my first dog. She is a reactive-dog-turned-normalish thanks to anti-anxiety meds and a hell of a lot of work. Maisy is my soulmate, and all the best things in my life have happened because of her.

Pyg

DOB: 1.31.13
Gotcha Day: 10.28.13
Pyg is a shih-tzu/something mix. He's sweet and cuddly. He's funny and playful. He gets along with everyone and everything. As my first attempt at fostering, Pyg is proof that failure can be better than success.

Lola

DOB: 8.7.10
One of my two "inherited" dogs, Lola is a basset hound who became mine when I fell in love with her (human) dad. As I've started to train Lola, I've come to love her simplicity and earnestness.

Napi

DOB: 7.4.12
Gotcha Day: 7.4.13
Napi, my "inherited" chihuahua (mix?) was rescued from abusive neighbors. He's fearful, loud, and kind of a pain, but also the biggest sweetheart we have.
