New Additions, and Old Friends


Well, happy to report, Mandy the beagle is adopted and off to her new home!! We now have new foster dogs! We have two beautiful purebred cocker spaniels rescued just last weekend from a puppy mill. They are both females, about 6 years old. Both are beautiful golden buff coloring. One has a longer american nose, and one the shorter english nose. They got their new names to go with their new life of freedom!!!! Bella and Rosie!!!!


Bella is definitely the better adjusted! She came out and is ready to live her new life to the fullest!!! She is lovable, cuddly, no
sey and playful! She is also already getting fully housetrained!!!! Amazing accomplishment!! She is still a little timid, but just meeting her, you'd never suspect her abusive start in life! She's ready for her forever family!!! And whoever gets her will be one lucky family! She loves the kids, is fine with other dogs, and plays with Buster and Andi, loves to run outside with them. Most of all, she just loves to be petted!!! She's soooo sweet!!!! I could just keep her myself! LOL!!!! The 1st top pic is of Rosie, and the one on the left is Bella.....Think Bella in blue! She wears the blue harness!

Rosie needs more time. She is still just terrified and not sure what to make of her new life of freedom. She will not be adoptable until she has had time to rehabilitate and adjust to living in a home with a loving family. She is not aggressive in any way to people, and loves petting and having us talk softly to her. But she growls at other dogs who get too close, and will snap at them. She still shakes when anyone comes near her. She just lays like a lump in the
spot you put her in. You have to carry her in/out and take her out of her crate. It's just sad and disgusting the trauma this poor girl must have been thru already in her short life. But she's in a better place now, and will have all the love and time and patience she needs!!! Better days are surely ahead for miss Rosie!!!!!

We also are now fostering a returning friend, Andi!! Through no fault of her own, 5 month old Andi, was returned when her new family decided they just didn't have the time to care for her. So we are sad she has to go thru this, we're happy to see her and always glad to open our hearts to this sweetie!! She is loving playing with Buster to her little heart's content! She's playful, housetrained, and just as cute as can be!! She's a great little girl and available to be adopted now! She is a chihuahua/pug mix and is about 15 lbs. She loves kids, and other dogs and of course, snuggles!!!!!

As always, if you have room in your heart, go to www.hubbardshounds.com and fill out an adoption application today!!!!!
