Rescuing a Dog

I hope the new pup is the best dog you have ever had, my rescue dog was one of the sweetest loving dogs I've ever had.

Careful Bro!!!! We started rescuing (not adopting) St. Bernards a few years ago & it has become very addicting to say the least.

I now have 3 very large smoking buddies!! We rescue them, love them & teach them to love and then by the time they are ready to be placed....... WE KEEP THEM!!!!!

It is a great feeling knowing that most can be turned around and have a great life with a good bit of time and love invested.

You are a good man for helping needy pups Bro!!!

It is a rescue, but it is for keeps

Kudos, Jeff. Grace and I are on a Golden Retriever rescue list. I'm looking forward to the opportunity.

Love the pic of the dog too -- Ice is very appropriate.

The 3 we have now share the house with me, the wife and 2 daughters and it is just like having 3 more full grown adults in the house.

Blue & I considering putting up a heated & cooled poll barn this spring with 8-12 kennels in it so we can get more involved with the rescues. Looking at trying to cover the north eastern & south eastern sea board for St Bernard rescues. You would not believe how many people down south buy these dogs who are not bread for the heat and the decide it was a bad idea. not to mention the amount of food they consume.

I have 14 acres with a nice size creek running threw it so we have more than enough space and I work with many people who bring me 80lb. bags of dog food to support our troops that we currently house and are willing to do so for the support of a larger # of these gentle GIANTS as our family grows.

My heart and support goes out to anyone who is willing to help a domesticated animal in need.
