We have taken in some new dogs and could use some help paying for their vetting. We owe our main vet $1800 and have at least $1500 in upcoming expenses. We have been so fortunate to operate on a very lean budget and not have to ask for donations often.

Here are pictures of some of our new dogs. They're all adorable! Felicity, Keri and Russell are ready for their new homes!I  Aristotle and Mitch have another 2 weeks or so to complete their vetting before they can join a family. Don't let that stop you though. It's always best to apply early!

We had a great retirement party for Tobias! It was so good to see some of our volunteers, adopters and some new friends. Some of our friends drove 3+ hours to come hang out with us. We're so honored that they made the trip! We had so much fun that we're talking about having an annual get together.

Our volunteer photographer took 1899 pictures so it has taken me awhile to go through them all! Here are some of my favorite pictures of Tobias (and me). I'll post the rest of the pictures later today or tomorrow.

Thanks to everyone for celebrating Tobias and the contributions he has made to all of our lives. Without him, this rescue would not exist. He changed my life for the better that's for sure! You might still see him out and about depending on how he feels. He's definitely slowing down, although he partied pretty hard on Sunday!

Who's ready to party????

It has been brought to our attention that our previous invite led people to think that Tobias has already passed. He is still very much with us but his health is declining. That's why we want to celebrate his life at his RETIREMENT party!

Tobias is the dog that started this rescue. It's because of him that we have saved hundreds of dogs. He has greeted each new dog, every new volunteer, and everyone he's ever met with enthusiasm and has been a wonderful breed ambassador.

Come out and celebrate with us on Sunday 10/19 from 2 to 5 PM at The Powder Keg, 1300 Brittmoore, Houston, 77043.

Kids and dogs (of any breed) are welcome!

(We apologize for upsetting anyone that thought he had passed)

Are you coming to our party on Sunday?

We're celebrating Tobias' life while he's still with us! He's THE reason this rescue exists. He's responsible for saving hundreds of Chinese Cresteds! He has literally changed people's lives!

Tobias' is around 14 or 15 years old now. He's in early stages of renal failure along with other health issues. Tobias loves nothing more than to be held and loved on. So we're throwing him a party to honor him and the lives that he has changed!

Our adoptable dogs will be there to greet you! We will have a volunteer appreciation drawing as well.

Today is the last day for the Houston Dog Show! We've enjoyed talking to everyone and meeting some of our supporters! Here's a video of Tobias driving the Range Rover and Zoey, an honorary Crested, playing her piano to raise funds for the rescue!

Last chance to get tickets for the Hulken bag raffles! Thanks to those who have already purchased some. We will do the drawing around 3 PM this afternoon.
