Holding On To The Things You Love

May 19, 2019 by Ogee

Somewhere between work, volunteering, and changes to how WordPress manages the Reader and sharing, I ran out of blogging steam. Or maybe just words. Fresh inspiration abounds, but not everyone wants to read the stories I might share. The self-imposed push for happy stories feels less authentic and gradually, probably less relevant to readers, as well. Blogs are time-consuming beasts, and when you feel like no one is listening, it is easy to become discouraged. Along the way, I also […]

With a look like this…

December 9, 2018 by Ogee

Some curses are blessings in disguise. Last fall, I inherited responsibility for taking the dog’s photos for their website profiles. A lot more work, but simple enough? Not so! For every shot that makes it – there are dozens more that go into the recycle bin. I try to get the dogs shortly after they arrive so we can share them as quickly as possible with the team and expedite their going homes. Those first couple of days can be […]

Dogs at Play

November 25, 2018 by Ogee

When my former foster, Buddy went home, it was with an older sister and then one-year-old Zeke who you may remember was being fostered for his military mom while she was deployed. Zeke was reunited with his mom in October, which meant Buddy had lots of excess energy to burn. We call them zoomies. What better place for him to do that than in Saturday morning dog class at Homeward Bound?! Here, the gnashing of teeth and games of chase […]

Raining German Shepherd Dogs

March 4, 2018 by Ogee

Winter finally arrived – in March. It has been raining buckets of water, hail, mud – and lately – German Shepherd Dogs. The AKC does dogs no good service by listing them as among the favorite breeds. When Goldens hit the top of the chart, a wave of abandoned and surrendered golden dogs followed. German Shepherd Dogs have been making their way up the list and now rival Labrador Retrievers for the top spot. So guess what? The shelters and […]

Follow Up Friday: Just Add Love

February 16, 2018 by Ogee

Taylor was the eighth dog of 2018. You may remember his arrival. At three years of age, this Golden Retriever weighed just 40.8 pounds. He was emaciated and scared, but he instantly clung to our people. Within minutes a tiny grin appeared. That was his true heart shining through. There was nothing medically wrong with Taylor. Why he was so thin is still a mystery to us. We know he was kept in a kennel during the day – which […]

Follow-Up Friday: Journey Now Charli

February 9, 2018 by Ogee

My Yogi had a play date recently with our former foster and his protégé, Journey. Her name is now Charli – and it suits her, but I have a hard time re-training myself. She is forever Journey to me. She has grown, but not too much. She is loved (that can never be too much). But in one way, she has returned to her old self. It seems that our Journey Charli has fallen back into her old habits: greeting […]
