In my post earlier this week, I mentioned how we let blind Avery stay in his crate in the morning until he's good and ready to come out on his own. Well, in the past several days he's developed a new twist on this — he comes out of his crate and then goes into…

Back in July we had a blog post about a TV crew that was here to do a story for New Hampshire Chronicle on WMUR-TV, Channel 9, in Manchester. The producer told us last week that the story will air on Wednesday, September 28th, at 7 p.m. Here is the program's webpage with the promo…

We mailed out our fall newsletter to donors a couple of weeks ago, though it is just now showing up in places like Chicago. We posted a PDF version of it online over the weekend, and it is available here on our website. A funny thing about that beautiful cover photo of blind and deaf…

This is Avery, the blind Beagle from Georgia who arrived back in May, and whose very painful eyes our veterinary ophthalmologist had to remove a few days after he came to us. I had mentioned in that arrival post that he had clearly had a rough life and had been beaten a lot, judging from…

Yes, the fall colors are already appearing up here in the "North Country," as they call this part of New Hampshire. A few trees and shrubs started turning a couple of weeks ago, in fact. We have a way to go before the peak fall foliage is upon us, but judging from how fast the…

The other morning Alayne was putting some fresh bedding on the cots outside the center hallway. There are usually three to four cots along the wall, often occupied by sleeping dogs of various types and sizes. When she got to Louie the blind Beagle, he woke up from his slumber but refused to budge. As…

A very curious thing started happening this summer. Late in the evening, just after it gets dark, frogs begin coming up the dog ramp and onto the front porch. They don't even wait for the dogs to be put inside before they start hopping up the ramp; they are totally unconcerned by the presence of…

Yes, our beloved little wobbler, Mink — otherwise known as Schmink or Schminkers to his family and friends — is now happily living in his new home in Portland, Oregon. Shirley L. and James C., long-time supporters and wonderful friends, had asked a couple of months ago if they could adopt our last two disabled…

It's not just the grass that's greener on the other side of the fence; the apple over there is better, too. That's blind Cash reaching through the fence to munch on a fresh apple on a recent morning. Every day when we put them out to graze in their paddocks, they make a mad dash…

I've posted before about how our big dogs like to lie in the smallest possible dog beds and vice versa. Here's a new twist on that theme. In the front yard we have a large group of dogs that are out during the day together, ranging in size from Labs to Dachshunds. So, of course…
