Squirrel Patrol


They're everywhere. Taunting me. Scavenging for food on my lawn. Squirrels. Just give me a little more leash! I'll get them!

This is the only way they can try to defeat me....

New Walking Route

So even though I'm still not sold on my new digs, there are some positives. The great places to go walking and sniffing!

All Moved In - But So Much Unpacking To Do!

Here's a shot of me in the living room with some boxes that still need to be unpacked!

Hey pups, quickie post today! We're all moved in...as of yesterday! I'm still not too sure about this new apartment. I like the area (sooo many dogs to sniff!!!) But this doesn't quite feel like home yet.

Photoshoot!

Hey pups, so one of my neighbours has got himself a sweet new camera, and since there are some nice doggies around, had asked some of us to come and pose for him!! So here are some of the shots he took of little ol' me.

Donations, Fosters, Help Needed for the Seized Ohio dogs!

Message from the AMTC Rescue Chairperson:

I have been in contact with the Columbiana County Humane Society in Ohio. They have asked us to provide any assistance that we can, including taking as many Manchesters into AMTC Rescue foster homes as possible. The shelter told me that the seized dogs are purebred rat terriers, purebred Manchesters and Rat Terrier/Manchester mixes. The dogs range in age from 8 months to 8 years old. There was a litter of 4 week old puppies taken into the care of the vet who assisted in the seizure because they were not doing well. So far, about 120 dogs have been seized. They do not have an exact count because they are still trying to catch them. Some were living in the house, some were living in a kennel and some were living loose on the property. The loose ones are the most feral and difficult to capture.

I am writing to you to ask for donations to the AMTC Rescue fund and just as important, I need volunteers to foster as many dogs as possible. We can only take in as many dogs as we can house, so please contact me asap if you can help with fostering. Before we can take in any dogs, we need an experienced Manchester owner in Ohio to volunteer to go to the shelter and help them sort out the dogs by breed. We need to know how many purebred Manchesters are there and their sex and age. If you can assist the animal shelter and AMTC Rescue in this way, please email or call me immediately at amtcrescue@bleusprings.net or 585-335-8401.

Thank you,
