Blue's latest update shows Blue is doing exceptionally well and has captured the hearts of every kid in the family. Blue was adopted last Saturday. The story behind this is that a volunteer, pressed for time, took Blue to the soccer fields to watch the kids play while she had Blue, resulting in Blue falling in love with the family.

Here is our “Microchips save lives, but you need to register them” reminder!

Two days ago we received a phone call and a 24 Pet Watch notice that a dog with a chip coming back to FOAC as the purchaser/inserter had been picked up as a stray in Pittsburgh. The animal control officer described her as a chow-looking female, red, 12 1/2 years old.

We keep records, but we did not have a spreadsheet with records from 2016, as we just started in 2018 keeping up with that. However, we did look back through our well-kept website and were able to find that Paige had been transferred to a rescue in New Jersey in 2016. We were able to convey that information to the officer in Pittsburgh, who felt the likelihood of reconnecting Paige and her adopter would be good since the family who found Paige and turned her in had seen someone looking in the neighborhood earlier for her.

We always help with the process of registration when folks adopt from us for this very reason. Not everyone is responsible enough to do this, but when we know it saves lives, we feel it is in our best interest to get things started.

Now it’s up to the adopters! Do the right thing and make sure your microchips have registered! We hope Paige will soon be home.

BIRDIE is six to seven weeks old, and was found in or near the road, all alone. In addition to her gunky infected eye, she has a sliced-open deep injury on her abdomen that is badly infected. A visit to the vet gave us antibiotics to use for her, and we also discovered that she has a broken femur! So much for this tiny little girl to be going through at such a young age! We were fortunate to find a foster home where she can be given her medication twice daily, hoping she will heal, and and then we will worry about the leg. The vet said frequently broken legs can heal without intervention as long as she is kept quiet so that is our goal. Of greater concern is: will the infection clear up?

Foster Mom bathed her tonight, and discovered in addition to everything else she is covered with lice and ticks. That was a first! She is lucky she was found by a citizen who cared enough to take care of her! Follow Birdie’s story and we will update.

Duckie received some affection from a young volunteer today and he soaked it all up. He is a very sweet fella and obviously great with kids.

Penny is super friendly and very loving. She is a huge fan of the water and any type of toy. She had an 8 year old boy to play with today so she had the best time. They both did! If you are needing a family dog, here's your girl.

A bonus of walking dogs at the shelter is getting to play with puppies. Chewbarka, Charlie Barkin & Sir Barks a Lot had as much fun as we did today. Applications for the boxer mixes can be found here:
