Stories and Poems

I started volunteering at the Idaho Humane Society last year.  I visit the animals there every other Friday to walk them, play with them, and give them attention.  This page has information on the dogs (and some cats) I've helped with.  Some have pictures to help you see how adorable they are!

If they have been adopted, there will be an 'adopted' stamp in the notes column. If I haven't heard, it will be blank.  Some weren't there when I went back, but I couldn't tell if they were adopted or not - those will say 'unknown'.  The most recent ones are at the top.

NOTES

11-week-old female Black Lab / Beagle Mix

She's the sweetest little girl you could ever imagine.  After some play time and treats, she'll snuggle with you for hours.  She has the potential to become a great agility dog: she was jumping over my mom's legs when she wasn't in our arms.  She needs a loving home with good people.

~2 month old male Britney Spaniel / Australian Shepherd / Collie Mix

This puppy had no information on his kennel, but we found out a lot about him!  He loves to run - and run and run! - and is very hyper.  He is fluffy and soft and absolutely adorable!

1-2 year old male Husky / Elkhound Mix

We couldn't find the papers on this one, so we don't know his name.  He is energetic, yet very sweet.  He is interested in what other dogs are doing, and not so much in toys.  He knows sit, though, and is the perfect pup to pet because of his fluffy, soft coat!

CAT

Even though his left rear foot is a little deformed (you have to look really hard to even tell), this boy loves to cuddle!

 

ADOPTED

8-week-old male Black Lab / Australian Shepherd Mix

I think this puppy was abused by his previous owner.  He has a cut under his left eye and has no trust in people. He looks fine in the kennel, but if you open the door, he runs away from you. Move slowly when approaching him. With a nice, patient, loving person, he'll be a great dog! Stock up on treats, though, because once he trusts you, you can't keep him away! He sure is adorable!

8-week-old male Pit Bull/Australian Shepherd Mix
1 of 4 in litter

This guy loves to play! He sometimes gets picked on by his brother, but he sure is cute. He just needs a bath and a good family!

ADOPTED

KITTENS

These kittens need patient, loving owners who will teach them how to love people.  They're playful but kinda shy!

DADDY'S LITTLE BOY
8-week-old male Australian Shepherd

This little Aussie pup melted my dad's heart right from the start.  He may try to bite and be a bit hyper, but he a is a sweetie.  Gray and black with a bob-tail, this little boy is absolutely adorable!

ADOPTED

6-month old female Chocolate Lab

This little girl has a bit of a sad story: she was brought into the Humane Society with a bark collar on that was embedded into her skin - the vet had to surgically remove it.  But, even though she was abused, she is the happiest little (or not-so-little) puppy you could imagine.  She needs a good home with very loving people.

ADOPTED

6-week-old female Pit Bull

The only girl out of her litter, she sure knows how to show those boys who's boss.  She is much smaller than her brothers but she is so cute!

ADOPTED

6-week-old male Pit Bull

OGGIE
12-week-old male German Shepherd/Black Lab mix

Oggie is a very cute little doggie.  He has more shepherd in him than lab, though - you can tell by his paws, plus he is fuzzy and has shepherd eyes.  He is so cute and loves to play with his sister, Bella.

ADOPTED
1/25/08

BELLA
12-week-old female German Shepherd/Black Lab mix

Bella is such a sweet girl.  If her brother, Oggie, wasn't trying to wrestle with her all the time, she would love to just sit and be with you.  She probably has more lab in her because she is all black and has the cutest little floppy ears.

ADOPTED
1/25/08

8-week-old female Pit Bull mix

This little girl is so tiny - six pounds at the most.  She won't be a very big dog - her paws are so small!  She is kinda shy but really likes to cuddle.  She likes to chew on anything she can get her teeth on, too.

ADOPTED

Border Collie/Chow/Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix puppies

KIA

NONJALI
18-month-old male Malamute/Siberian Husky

Nonjali is a huge dog! He is 78 pounds right now and very strong, but then again he is a sled dog.  Both of his eyes are blue which is rare but so cool.  He is silver, white, and fluffy - he has huge paws, too.  He will need some training, though, because he likes to jump.  He just needs someone with patience and a big yard.  I'm not sure what his name, Nonjali, means

BUDDY

HOWIE*
8-week-old Border Collie Mix

Howie is a big puppy - and it's not just because he is so fuzzy!  He is really playful and he has four littermates.

*named by my dad - his real name is unknown

ADOPTED
11/09/07

8-week-old female Black Labrador mix

This little girl is shy, sweet, and super cute. She is kinda timid but warms up to people after a while. Who couldn't fall in love with a face like this?

ADOPTED

SMILEY
2-year-old male German Shepherd/Heeler Mix

This big boy has a beautiful blond coat and is so pretty.  He's a big dog but is very sweet. Smiley is house, kennel, and potty trained.  He knows sit and shake but has the potential to learn a lot more.  He is crazy inside the building, but I think it is because he doesn't like it in there.  If you take him outside, though, he is a really well-behaved dog.  Smiley is an excellent dog.

ADOPTED

Got a great home on a farm with a very nice lady! (gets his name changed, too) :-)

18-week-old male Pit Bull/Border Collie Mix

He has coloring/markings like a tiger. He is really sweet but very hyper.  Likes to bit my jeans when I run with him.  He is very smart - he already knows sit.  He is so cute.

ADOPTED

MIA
3-year-old female Siberian Husky mix

Mia is so sweet and loving.  She is white, tan, and black and she is very smart.  Mia is mellow but gets energy bursts every now and then. She likes to chase tennis balls but doesn't pick them up.  She wouldn't take a treat when I tried to give her one but I think she was too excited.

ADOPTED

12-week-old male German Shorthair

This guy is white with brown markings. He is very hyper and energetic - very much a puppy.  He loves to bite and pull on the leash.
