About Me

Rusty Shackleford is the newest addition to our family. He is a 2 year old Cairn Terrier that was adopted thru a rescue site. Rusty was originally from a puppymill in Amish county, but was rescued by a woman in NH. After that he was sent to a foster family in CT for a few months, before moving in with us in MA. Despite any hardships Rusty had prior to coming to us, he is adjusting well and enjoying his freedom as a spoiled puppy.


Miss Lavinia Boyd is our loving, 2 year old himilayan, who likes to build, hoard, rattle the bars with noodles and sing like a baby boyd. She is very affectionate and loves you to reciprocate with head scratchies and kisses. If you give her too many head scratchies and ear rubbies, she gets so comfortable and relaxed that she closes her eyes and falls asleep. Lavinia likes going in the car to visit her daddy and rearranging pillows on the bed at home.
Candi Lion was our 14 year old "supposed" cocker spaniel poodle, who does not look like either of these animals. She was more Cairn Terrier both in looks and fur quality. Candi was a good dog and our best friend. She passed away on May 17th 2007. We miss her very much, but we are very thankful for our 14 wonderful years with her.
Miss Bandit was our little dumbo earred rex that liked climb on beds, jump in the trash, pretend she was a stuffed animal or fake being a fur hat. She was a sweet little rex, who loved oysters but didn't care for gouda cheese. Bandit was a good girl of whom everyone, who met her loved her immediately. She passed away June 21st 2007, a week and a day after her second birthday. We will always love our sweet little Bandit and although gone, she will not be forgotten as she still lives in our hearts and minds.
