The New York 12

In early November, 12 Rhodesian Ridgebacks were surrendered to New York's Center for Animal Care and Control. We'll never get the whole story, but apparently, a "breeder" was unable to sell his/her dogs and decided to just surrender them all. They ranged in age from about 4 years old to just under 6 months. We, of course, jumped at the chance to foster a needy Ridgeback, especially one that was under-socialized.

Meet, Missy (now Mimi) who has been adopted by a family in central PA (A very patient family who had been looking for the right dog for quite some time). We enjoyed her two-week stay with us and look forward to hearing stories from her new home.

Here she is keeping her poor little nose warm...

Adam and Katie enjoyed meeting Missy since their cousins on the other side were adopting her.
Missy claims the dog bed so "poor" Stella has to sleep on the floor.
