Ozzie (formerly Henry) - a happy rescue from Angie’s Friends that spends his time between Lake Tahoe and Scottsdale with his family

 

As some of you may know, last year, we hosted FoundDog Day at Highland Park Village with Angie’s Friends.  It was such a wonderful success (you can check out the recap here!), that we’re thrilled to partner with Angie’s Friends and White Rock Dog Rescue to bring some more loving pups to Highland Park Village - right before Valentine’s Day we might add.

Here’s a letter Angie’s List received this year from Ozzie’s new mom!

Hi Amanda, thanks for contacting me regarding Henry. His name has been changed to Ozzie! We have always had Bulldogs, when our Bucky passed away suddenly we were devastated. We went without a dog for 6years. We finally healed & decided we would like to rescue a dog. We wanted a smaller dog we could travel with between our homes in Phoenix & Lake Tahoe,Ca.

Ozzie is an amazing,fun, sometimes naughty dog!! We love him to bits! He has matured so we experience much less naughtiness I was visiting my sister in law in Frisco, Tx. She drove me to my favorite mall. I was thinking about rescuing a dog.Had looked in Phoenix but only found pitbulls, large mixed breeds & Chihuahuas. Then there he was! Soo cute & perfect!! I rescued him the end of January 2013 at the Mall in Big D!!

 This last year has been challenging & fun. He has made our world! He is such a character & so funny! He is starting agility classes next week and has been chosen to appear in a commercial. He spends his winters in Phoenix & his summers in Lake Tahoe! He has the life of Riley!!

Here are some pictures of him. Please get them to Angie for me. I tried to text them to her awhile back but apparently she can’t receive them with the phone she has. She is such an amazing person! She does so much for animals in need.

FoundDog Day Success at Highland Park Village

Jeffrey Doman with Chowder

This past Saturday, Highland Park Village was honored to host FoundDog Day with Angie’s Friends and White Rock Dog Rescue.  We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful Saturday. Thirty puppies made a visit to Highland Park Village over the weekend – ready to meet their new families.  Because of this event, nearly 20 dogs have found new homes!

Our hearts were warmed when Jeffrey Doman took home a Brindle puppy he named Chowder for his little boy.  It was the first adoption of the day. Next, we saw a family playing with Oliver – an adorable Labrador mix.  They submitted an application for him right away.  Anita took home a sweet Terrier mix, Henry, and he was wagging his tail when he found out he had found a new mom.

Thank you to everyone who came out this past weekend to celebrate the first FoundDog Day with us at Highland Park Village.  We can’t thank you enough for your support .  And, we are so happy for all of the families who are welcoming a new furry friend into their homes.

Larry is still looking for a loving home and could use your help.  Do you know a family that might be able to care for him?  He’s a very sweet dog.
