River Hawk – He has a tiny little Mohawk on his head! So cute! Anyways scinec Allie was resting today,
I spent some time w/ River, pulled the expen out into the front yard onto the grass, fresh air and sunshine!
Plus this is the only time I can pet him thru the bars! Last time he sat in the corner pretty unresponsive.
Today, he sniffed the air, moved around, watched the cars go by, and even munched on some grass!
And I got a little pet in too. And he got some yummy turkey from the deli! Being aware and responsive,
without panic, for these guys so so huge! Yeah! Good Day!
And I took about a million pics of him! lolĀ Here is a few!

As the prime rescuer of these dogs it is wonderful to see the progress. We have now rescued over 200 dogs including the puppies. As you probably all know we have had several litters delivered since we rescued some of the females. We delivered another eleven dogs to Maria and her expanding foster network Saturday night.
I want to thank you and everyone else for your dedication you have for these wonderful dogs. From seeing them buried in holes trying to stay out of the 14 below zero weather to homes like these makes my eyes tear up.
With the warmest of regards,
Byron

Both River and Allie are gorgeous – and it sounds like you’re really coming along with them! It’s funny that River has a mini-mohawk; our ex-feral doggie Dot also has one of those – I’d never seen it before (it’s kind of like a ridgeback ridge, but smaller and on the top of the head…). Thanks for sending me your blog link; it’s going to be great to follow these guys’ and your story. Maybe you’ll be able to write that handbook that we *so* need about how to take care of feral dogs!

We totally need a handbook on how to do this!
