Merry Christmas from all of us at Pups In Motion WNC!

Yeti is off to new adventures back in his home state of Montana. I will miss our early morning latte and pup cup runs before the other pups arrived. And nobody does tippy taps for snacks quite like this one. We miss him already. 🥰

It was a balmy 55 degrees today, so obviously the only reasonable choice was RIVER SWIMMING.

Also, the faces in today’s pics absolutely sent me:
• Rose just standing there with her tongue hanging out like the lovable goof she is. No thoughts, just vibes.
• Stevie grinning like a complete fool, living his best cold-water life.
• And Mingo staring at Stevie with a full “what is actually wrong with you” expression.

Cold paws, warm hearts. 🐾❄️

PLEASE SHARE FAR AND WIDE and let's get this girl a home. She is with Paws In Middle Georgia but transport can very likely be arranged to a Southeastern state.

Meet Collins.
✨ Survivor. Snack enforcer. Selective socialite. ✨

Collins entered this world the hard way—thrown from a moving car and left behind. When she was picked up a few cars back, she was thin, quiet, and clearly running on emergency mode.

That phase has ended.

Now Collins is fully operational and deeply committed to living loudly.

🐕 Dog Opinions:
Collins likes some dogs.
Other dogs? Absolutely not.
If she doesn’t like you, she won’t bite—she’ll just give you an attitude so strong it could be felt in nearby counties. Think: side-eye, posture, and “say it to my face” energy.

🍿 Snack Philosophy:
Snacks are not a suggestion.
Snacks are a lifestyle.
She will eat anything you offer her—kibble, treats, dried mango, possibly drywall if seasoned correctly.

She is currently enrolled in a very difficult course called:
“The Human Who Giveth Can Also Taketh Away.”
Progress is being made. Emotional responses are dramatic.

🚀 Crate Exit Policy:
Yes, Collins can wait calmly to be released from her crate.
But if you forget?
She launches like a missile, sprints through the house, slides into furniture, and briefly forgets that walls are solid.

🛋️ House Manners (Situational):

With expectations: sits sweetly on the couch like a polite little lady

Without expectations: hops onto coffee tables and side tables to conduct unauthorized inspections

🧠 What She Knows:
✔ Sit
✔ Down
✔ Come
✔ Wait

🧠 What She Also Knows:
✔ Run
✔ Sprint
✔ Ignore
✔ Selective hearing
✔ How to look you dead in the eyes while doing the opposite of what you asked

💩 Breaking News:
She poops outside.
Yes. Outside. Like a professional. We’re very proud.

Collins is smart, adaptable, spicy, and endlessly entertaining. She has bounced back from trauma with a “watch me now” attitude and would thrive with someone who appreciates structure, humor, and a dog with strong personal boundaries and snack-related feelings.

To Whom It May Concern,

I wish to formally lodge a grievance regarding the inconsistent meal preparation protocols within this household.

When Father presides over dinner, I am graciously permitted to sit in the kitchen and partake in the occasional morsel. Such benevolence is, of course, most appreciated. 😘💘

However, under Mother’s supervision, I am unceremoniously confined to my quarters, forced to observe the same culinary activities from behind the cruel bars of my crate, with nary a snack or second supper offered. The indignity of such treatment is difficult to endure. 😒🔒

I trust management will implement corrective measures forthwith.

Sincerely,
Brenley, Esq. 🐾

Brenley's treasure? ....A rock. 🤭🫣

Behold, Clara’s priceless artifact: a crusty McDonald’s cup she protected for miles like it was made of gold.
She kept trying to bury it, checking every two seconds to see if anyone was plotting to steal her treasure.
Spoiler: no one wanted the stupid cup.
