Mitchell Animal Rescue

After many names the first few days, the girls  decided on Annie.  Annie is Shelby's shadow when she is home and has found Shelby's bed pretty comfortable at night. Still working on the house training and the normal "puppy" phase.   All in all she fits with this family really well. Thanks!!! 

Bella is fine. She loves all the kids and the kids love her too.
She broke her collar when we were at work one day, so we had to go out and get her another.
  But, all is well. She is the perfect addition to our family!

I just thought that I would let you know that I did go in Saturday morning and adopted Barnaby.  He is a wonderful cat!!!!  I had to rename him Harvey because I have a dog named Barney and the names sounded to much alike.  Harvey will be a house cat.  He already thinks that his bed is on our bed.  If I set down he is on my lap right away.  He seems to be afraid to let me out of his sight.  If I even go to the bathroom, he sits by the door and meows.  I don't know where he came from but he does not want to be alone.  My husband even said we better get him a Christmas gift.  Thank you for doing such a good job with your animal rescue.  I saw the ad in the paper and just thought I would check out your sight.  I was'nt looking for a cat, but when I saw Harveys picture I knew I had to have him.  Just wanted you to know that thanks to you Harvey has a good home and is loved very much!!!!!! 

 I just wanted to let you know that the dog my mother adopted from the Mitchell Animal Rescue on September 12th has become a much loved and pampered companion in her home.  You had named her “Sugar” (we believe she is a West Highland Terrie r mix) but my mother renamed her Chicky2 upon adoption.  I had the privilege of meeting Chicky2 earlier this month while visiting my mother and I can honestly say I don’t think Sugar could have a found a better home.
When Sugar was rescued by your organization, there was a younger same breed dog found with her whom you had named Pixie.  I believe that Pixie was adopted the same day as Sugar but my Mom mentioned several times while I was visiting that she often wondered how Pixie was doing and said that perhaps she should have adopted both dogs since they were found together and likely related.  Should you receive any news on Pixie, we would love to hear it and should Pixie ever come up for adoption again, please let us know as we would be happy to take her in.  Once again, my family wishes to thank your organization for the work you do and for offering such a wonderful dog up for adoption.

The other Westie “Pixie” was adopted out.  It just so happens a good friend of mine adopted her and renamed her Susie.  She is named after a very close friend that passed away from cancer 2 years ago.  Susie is doing wonderful and is in a very loving home.  I had the opportunity to dog sit her for a few days last month and she really is a little sweetie.  She is spoiled and loved just like all dogs should be! 

I adopted a puppy from the rescue in October....a little schnauzer mix named Spunky.  I just wanted to give an update....Josie (as we call her) is doing quite well and enjoys all of the attention that she receives.  She loves to hang out with my other dog Bailey.  He even taught her to curl up on the couch  Here is a picture....She is quite a character, and she chews every toy in sight!  This used to be a fleece ball...she loves to throw the pieces around and chew on them even more!
