Martini is a Cairn mix that came into Col. Potter because his elderly owners died. They had originally adopted him from a local rescue and, over the years, provided him with a loving home. Martini at about twenty-five pounds is larger than the Cairn standard and has longer legs. He is about five years old.
Chris Meyers used to be a lawyer. They don’t let you do that anymore after you’ve been convicted of a felony, even if you swear you’re innocent. After all, the jury didn’t believe you, so why should the Bar Association?
Little Buddy Jackson should really be called Lucky. He was thrown out of a moving car in the Austin, Texas, area, but, fortunately, a good Samaritan saw what happened, stopped, and picked up the little dog.
Captain Jack is an older Westie, but this fifteen-year-old has a lot of life left. He is a happy boy whose smile and wagging tail light up a room. When he came to Caryl to be fostered, he adapted immediately. He walked right in with his tail wagging, and that well-known Westie smile on his adorable face. The captain came from a military family, and when a new baby with special needs was expected, they decided they couldn’t handle him anymore. Caryl suspects they didn’t want to be bothered and didn’t want to spend the money on him.
For years, my children had hounded me for a family dog. As a big family with seven young children at the time, there was no way I was going to get a dog. It was more work, more expenses, and more poop. So, how on God’s green earth did everything change for me in one weekend?
Jamison and Jaybee are two miniature Schnauzers looking for their forever home. They are very bonded so must be placed together. In fact, Dalton, their foster dad, says he has never seen two dogs more attached, and he has fostered a lot of dogs for Col. Potter Cairn Terrier Rescue.
Corey, Simon Garfunkel, Laurie, and Marcus make up the K Team: Simon being a retired K9 officer, Laurie and Corey being retired police officers, and Marcus, well, being Marcus. Those who see him don’t need further explanation. Those who don’t see him are soon napping on a sidewalk after a sudden confrontation with concrete.
Robbie is a terrier mix who was picked up on the mean streets and sent to a shelter. Fortunately for Robbie, the shelter contacted Col. Potter Cairn Rescue, and he is now safely in a loving CP foster home.
Hola and happy new year to everyone! Just a quick shout out to all of our staff, adopters, fosters, donors, volunteers, and everyone that helped us round out a wonderful year.
It’s Christmas time in the Valley. Chet and Bernie of the Little Detective Agency, Little being Bernie’s last name, Chet being the dog, could use another job. Chet is puzzled when Bernie turns down work and instead, passes the job to another PI, Victor. Chet and Bernie are action oriented, Chet being the one who grabs the perp’s pants leg and hangs on, Bernie being the smartest guy in the room. Victor is a better researcher than an active PI, so it makes sense for him to take the job.
