Radar

First person we think of is Radar on M*A*S*H. Corporal O'Reilly. Not familiar? Google it. Radar is a dog taken care of by a friend. He needed a home, she had a spot. Radar first got Bab's treats just before Christmas at the Special/Christmas Farmers Market. His Mom stopped, asked, 'when do you have time to do this?!' Then said, 'if you had a treat for me, I'd be done shopping.' Well, we had a Dark Chocolate Pistachio Scone available. #humantreat Everybuddy was happy. Radar makes his Mom happy. She loves the unconditional love when she opens the door and company at night. 

Dixon also has a new home. He is learning manners around farm animals. He ran with a few friends for awhile, wasn't sure he knew what a home was or a kind human. He landed with the right person and place. She said, 'oh, he knows who makes his treats.' Radar and Dixon, both survivors because a rescue reached out.

Good stories, real life. What's the saying, 'saving one dog won't save the world, but for that one dog, their world will change forever.' Our world changed when Carlee joined our family.
She was on the run as you know, it took a week to gain her trust. We had a vested interest. No one claimed her in 5 days, receiving a phone call, 'are you still interested.' 'Yes.' She needed a home, we had a spot. 

If you have room, love, extra scoop of food, warm bed. Look into fostering a dog or adopting. Questions? Ask a local rescue, PAWS, Hopeless to Homes and more options in other areas. Look on  Facebook for contact information.

On that note, help any animal that needs help, we do the same.  

Warming up.

Christmas brought a new face to our home.  Before you get ahead of yourself, wait. He's been on a few car rides, a little girl reached out and gave him a hug at the farmers market a few weeks ago. Adorable. He is soft, quiet (no squeaker), lovable and Carlee is warming up. Well, lets show you. 
Its taken a few weeks to name, but right now he's being called Pnut. Yes, you would think there is blood running through veins, but a new pal and look at that smile. Life to us.

Carlee's Christmas was many days, she received a bone shaped ornament, a coat that velcro's around the tummy. Tricky to get the ends to connect, on a moving object. No bending hurting joints to climb in, bonus we were looking for.

Together a friend gave us a stocking she said, 'it had you written all over it.' of course, we LOVE it! It will take a lot of treats to fill, a HaHa moment.

Thank you for another great year of sharing your dogs with us. We love visits at the farmers market, stories, ear rubs for the dogs and when treats don't fit in bags, we bring along. See you again soon, watch our Facebook page for updates or 'Like' the Capital City Farmers Market facebook page, updates are on there as well, open and read. Information will include vendors and what each will bring.

We are wrapping up our week, Friday night is stretching into Saturday. Please keep your pets warm from the cold, help those that cross your path that need extra. Get them to Animal Control, someone may be looking for them and its a great way to get re-connected. Thanks friends.
