About Me

IVY

Hello! My name is Ivy, or at least it is now. I'm a yellow lab and they tell me I'm about 6 years old.
I was adopted from the humane society, where I spent 2 miserable weeks before my mom found me and took me home. I was not treated well in my past life. I get very afraid when voices are raised. I have scars on my ears from a previous flea infestation. I was never allowed in the house before. I am just now getting house broke and learning to go up and down stairs.
My mom likes to give me treats and play ball with me. I have my very own toys and kennel. My favorite toy is a rotwieler stuffed animal. It was my moms, but I stole it. It's suppose to be of her old dog Gunner.
I love all my myspace friends and I like keeping in touch with them.
BAILEY
Hi! My name is Bailey. I'm a 10 year old yellow lab. My mom and dad adopted me from the Pierce County Humane Society on Halloween 2007.
After living with my family all of my life, they took me to the shelter and left me there. I was there for 2 weeks when mom spotted me at a halloween walk to benefit the Humane Society. Some of the volunteers had taken a few dogs out of the kennel and took us to the walk.
Mom spent that whole day with me and then went home and worried about my fate. See, I have severe hip dysplasia and need some medical attention. She knew that I was not a likely candidate for adoption.
Finally mom and dad decided to bring me into their family! I live with another yellow lab, Ivy, mom, dad, and 2 cats. It's a little crowded, but we all love each other!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

ONE BY ONE ...
One by One, they pass by my cage, Too old, too worn, too broken, no way. Way past his time, he can't run and play. Then they shake their heads slowly and go on their way.
A little old man, arthritic and sore, It seems I am not wanted anymore. I once had a home, I once had a bed, A place that was warm, and where I was fed. Now my muzzle is gray, and my eyes slowly fail. Who wants a dog so old and so frail?
My family decided I didn't belong, I got in their way, my attitude was wrong. Whatever excuse they made in their head, Can't justify how they left me for dead. Now I sit in this cage, where day after day, The younger dogs get adopted away.
When I had almost come to the end of my rope, You saw my face, and I finally had hope. You saw thru the gray, and the legs bent with age, And felt I still had life beyond this cage. You took me home, gave me food and a bed, And shared your own pillow with my poor tired head.
We snuggle and play, and you talk to me low, You love me so dearly, you want me to know. I may have lived most of my life with another, But you outshine them with a love so much stronger. And I promise to return all the love I can give, To you, my dear person, as long as I live.
I may be with you for a week, or for years, We will share many smiles, you will no doubt shed tears. And when the time comes that God deems I must leave, I know you will cry and your heart, it will grieve. And when I arrive at the Bridge, all brand new, My thoughts and my heart will still be with you. And I will brag to all who will hear, Of the person who made my last days so dear.
