What's New?

Our newest project is taking in a foster dog.  This is not just some ordinary dog.  We are calling her Noel.  This little tri colored border collie was rescued by the Yerington Animal Shelter volunteers and Safe Haven Kennels.  Noel was among 145 dogs left alone on a property in Gabbs, Nevada after their caretaker passed away suddenly.

We chose to foster Noel because she was just all but farrel,  living in a burrow dug in the ground. She appears not to have had human touch as she is petrified of it.  Everything in our world is new to her.  She is a smart girl and we are confident that the reabilitation process will be amazing!

Day 1  Noel pushes herself into any corner to try to hide.  She is terrified. She lays down flat on the floor.  She fights the lead and tries to chew it off her.  She is used to the "safety" of her pack (other familiar dogs)  She is introduced to some of her new pack (my dogs) with a me as the alpha.  She eats well and hides, cuddled in mounds of soft blankets in her kennel.  I wanted to bring her right into the home environment, but she is not ready for that much to be forced on her yet.

Day 2  Noel spends the day with me and the new pack (who are pretty much ignoring her).  She is not fighting the lead like yesterday.  Noel does not get spooked.  However, she is "glued" to one spot on the floor, still afraid to move. About mid-day she finally looks a bit relaxed as she stays alert to all the activity of the grooming shop.  This evening I brushed her before putting her to bed.
