It’s been 5 weeks since we picked up Zoe from Barcs.org as a foster dog, and ended up adopting her. She is doing great. Every dog is an individual therefore the acclimation time could be days, weeks or months. And with that in mind, this is how she is doing: I love to see the…

Vanna Got Adopted!
Vanna got adopted, wait for it, by us! We changed her name to Zoe, which means life in Greek, because she’s so full of life and energetic, and so our pack of dogs grew to 3 dogs. Zoe has a lot to learn and so we’ll be posting from time to time her progress in…
Vanna ID 50527282 Foster Dog

Then, there are those pet parents that are stressed out and tired because of their dogs’ antics, but that is easy to fix. Easy? Yes,…
