I'm lucky to receive lots of updates from adopter of how our past foster dogs are doing. It's always nice to hear that things are going well and how the dogs are adapting and blossoming in their forever homes. We are so lucky to have such amazing adopters!
A couple of months ago I received some pictures from Darby's dad. For those of you who may not know Darby's story - she's blind, was picked up as a stray, brought to a very large shelter in California and her only way out of the shelter was rescue. One of the NR California volunteers let me know about her and we soon became Darby's foster parents. Darby was with us for a little over 2 months and she was a real hoot! Darby encompasses all the wonderful traits of a terrier and her blindness did not slow her down. Darby taught us a lot as she was the first reactive dog that came into foster care with us. There were lots of lessons around learning to manage the environment since Catty can also be dog reactive.
If you want to read more about Darby (she's why I started this blog) go back to the beginning of this blog and you'll quickly see why she's such a special gal.

| Darby while in foster care with us - 2012 |
Back in 2012 we went out to see Darby and here's the great blog post A day with Darby and her family
As I said above Darby was reactive to other dogs when she was in foster care with. Look at her now with her two brothers. Darby is on the floor next to her big brother! The work her dad has done with her over the years is truly amazing.
I can never thank her dad enough for not only giving Darby an amazing life but, for helping her to work through her worry and helping her to be the girl she always wanted to be. Darby is living proof that patience, time and teamwork can help a dog to work through a lot of their fear. Way to go Darby!

We've also heard that little Soos is doing great! Soos was with us from early December 2013 through late January 2014. His new name is Zero - named after Zero in the Nightmare Before Christmas Zero is doing really well and he loves his parents and rattie older brother!

And Tremolo is now Cooper and he's doing rat-tastic! He loves to play and he's learned how to sit, lay down and rollover. Cooper loves everyone in his family and his mom says he's the best snuggler ever!
Here' a Cooper and his family while on a hike. What a life for a sweet and busy rattie boy!
