Bruiser

We brought Bruiser home Feb 4, 2011 and he's a wonderful addition to our family! He's made himself right at home, in fact it's hard to imagine not having him around now :) He is a bit of a couch potato and even has his own spot (see pictures) on the end of our sofa. We go on walks every morning, Bruiser might be almost 100 lbs, but he loves his walks and is very well behaved on his leash- in fact he's just very well behaved any time!
He is loving his new little sister and the cats are "letting" him stay in their home :) He actually cried when he first saw the cats, but after a few good sniffs decided that they're pretty cool, but he'd rather be dozing or playing frisbee. Thanks everyone at AAR for taking care of Bruiser and all his friends until they find their perfect family to adopt!

Otis Carter

David, Jacqulyn and I adopted Otis on January 19th. In case you were wondering, Otis is doing fine. He is settling in. He has picked his own chair - and if you beat him to it - he will sit in it with you. We are going to obedience classes every Saturday. I think we are learning more than he is :-). Otis just about has us trained they way he would like us. Hope you enjoy these pictures, obviously I am not a photographer.

Ted (now Bo)




Hi! My name is Lori Ball. My family adopted a black lab pully on 12/26/2010 named Ted. We changed his name to Bo. I wanted to give you an update on Bo. He is doing wonderful. He loves to play with our little boy EJ in the back yard. When EJ jumps on the trampoline, Bo gets excited and races around the back yard. Someday soon he will be able to jump up there on the trampoline. This is not encouraged, but it will be a funny surprise to both Bo and EJ when he finally makes it up there. Bo has a kennel but we noticed our older son, Tyler, sneaks Bo out of the kennel every night and into bed with him. Ty is a pretty tall 15 year old and will be surprised how Bo will kick him out of bed in another 6 months of growing. Bo still gets excited when Eric or myself come home and he wets on the floor a little. We dont know how to break him of this since it is a reaction because he is excited. I have attached a few pictures of Bo for you. One is of him and the other is of Bo and EJ after a long day of playing. He is spoiled rotten and we could not imagine our home without him. Thanks for all you do to bring happiness into the homes of pet lovers.
