We are really enjoying her antics while she is here with us at Grey Haven. Cats are

little dogs as long as they don't get in her face.

Claire was born in Ireland almost ten years ago. She is black with a lot of white which we see often on Irish dogs. She was brought to this country to have pups and she did that! She has been waiting on a farm for about four years and now she has her chance to find that perfect home which she so deserves!

It's time she had a couch of her own.

Our Henry is one very special boy! He came to us from a place that
allowed him to be about 15 pounds underweight and have a raging urinary
tract infection. He is now on his way to regaining his weight and his
health. This is one of the most special doll babies we have had in a
long time. It is obvious that all he wants is a mom and dad who will
love him as much as he loves them! Henry can live happily with smaller dogs and cats. He can't live with dogs who may pick on him as he is a very gentle boy.

Darren was born with a deformity of both front legs. It appears that his "elbows" are double-jointed. (that is not a real medical description but honestly describes what you see when you watch him walk). The condition has left him with no muscle mass in his front end at all and has forced him to walk with a strange gait. All of these problems have not taken a thing away from his loving manner and his joy for life.

This amazing, shy, strange little girl took almost nine years to decide that humans weren't so bad and being petted was a good thing. We are so grateful she stayed to learn that, even if for such a short time. R.I.P Dodie, 2000-2009.
