The neighbor drove up to the owner’s house as she was just leaving to bring her to me. So they decided to take her. I am thrilled for Ruby and sad for all of you who were so interested.
Miss Ruby is 4 1/2. She was surrendered by her owner who had to move for a job change. She is spayed, has had all her shots and is healthy. She has a lovely temperament. She is housebroken and stays with you outside without a leash. She gets along with horses, cats and other dogs. If she is provoked, she will fight back.
Ruby is a very sweet Golden Retriever that LOVES humans and just wants to follow you around. She sleeps on a dog bed beside my bed and is very well mannered.

We have received some puppies. The are about 10 weeks old. The little girl is tiny and looks like a little fox – she is the one with the pointy ears
. The two boys are very different. One is a big chunky guy who is totally laid back. The other is an explorer and very aware. He was watching the geese fly over head this morning. The little girl has been adopted.
Ok, here is an updated photo of the little *fox*

Charlie is a 5 month old darling little mix. She is a golden/Border collie cross so is very energetic. She loves to walk on a leash, sits for treats and is very affectionate. Love to play with toys.
and she is a puppy, so she digs, jumps, hops and is goofy. She is a little shy, but is VERY affectionate. She will not be a big dog – maybe 50 pounds.
She is just darling and will make a wonderful pet with the right family. She will need to be with folks who are comfortable training her.

here is Mr. Chance. He is a darling little male just over a year old. He is neutered, had all his shots and is healthy. He loves to play ball. He was a military family is who relocated. Loves kids, very friendly.
He is young and active. Needs good exercise and some training. We have AKC papers for him, but most of all he has a great temperment and really, really misses his family.
Home Report

Thank you very much for Chance! He is settling right in. We had a quiet first night Thursday. Robert took him out to the mesa in the Jeep on Friday. He stayed close to Robert while they hiked around. He whines to go out back but won’t let Robert let him out. It is almost as if he is scared to go outside when Robert opens the door. He goes out just fine for the kids and me. But he hangs out with Robert and shows no other signs of being “afraid.”
He has met his German short hair pointer cousins. It was a little much indoors with the 3 of them Saturday night so we took them all to the dog park on Sunday. They ran and played for over an hour!
Chance likes his crate and goes in there just to lay down during the day with the door open. The cats are getting to know him. Pickle, the feisty one, will tease him and then hiss at him. Beso, the old one, goes nose to nose and when Chance starts wanting to play, she goes to her room. He is eating well and going to our vet on Thursday.

Leo is a golden mix from Animal Control in El Paso. He is four years old according to microchip records.
He is neutered and current on all shots. He is a small guy, weighing 50 pounds. Leo is VERY good with other dogs. Not aggressive. He doesn’t seem too interested in cats. He loves being bathed and brushed. He appears to be housebroken. He has not made a sound other than a faint whimper to go outside to pee. He slept well in the crate last night. No formal obedience training is apparent, but he is eager to please and smart. He loves to play with toys. He rides well in the car.

This sweet guy loves people! He is playful, affectionate and funny. He is a neutered male who is about two years old. He was found as a stray and we are assuming he was out on the lam for a while because he is pretty independent.
He is funny with other dogs. He really, really likes some of them, and does not like others. He can be possessive with food and toys (around dogs). He will excel in a family who is experienced with dogs and can give him a little training. He is very clean and meticulous about his space.
He is not a pure bred Golden, but he has the face and temperament of one so Connie sprung him from the El Paso shelter. They called him *Puff ball*. However, my son who has aptly named many a dog renamed him Czonka after the linebacker Larry Czonka.
Email Kathleen at kathleen@radiantrecovery.com if you would like to come and meet him.
