Jill (now Lucky) a rescued traumatized puppy mill pup - Update

Jill was surrendered to the SPCA emergency shelter by a puppy mill. Eleven Eleven took her over January 31st and provided a foster to work with her issues one on one. In short Jill was absolutely traumatized by the experienced. Which left her a shell of a dog, she had no idea the joys of life, out doors, or human interaction. She flinched at every touch and pet, and was terrified of snow or anything related to outdoors. She would sit in a corner for hours on ends as she grew up with out the option of moving around, and never even knew once out of a cage that she was allowed to be free. She was adopted February 14th 2010 by a loving home, who at first was intimidated by the feats they knew they had to accomplish with this litter scared pup. Here are some of the up-dates of how with just a little time and TLC she is blossoming into a happy, joyful, fulfilled and 'normal' dog.

February 243rd 2010 Up-date:

Things are much better and I received a lot of support from work colleagues, my vet and I also called Canada K9.

I have an appointment at the end of the week with my vet for the booster and suture removal. She knows me now and shows affection but still does not come to me which will take a bit of time. She however has come a very long way and so have I. She was not good with the pee pad and it only took a day to train her to go outside. We had one oops since but that's o.k....

Outside is not her favorite place at the moment but getting much better. We walk three to four times a day and she finally walked for a whole half hour the other day. She no longer pulls on the leash and walks right beside me. We have come in contact with another friendly dog named Lokey (big dog) and she was very nervous at first and then she was o.k.. She is fighting her own fears one step at a time and doing rather well. Better then I would have thought.

I think we have a long friendship growing and yes things get better every day! She actually jumped from side to side with her ears up when she saw me this morning which was a verrrry big surprise! She was so cute... A real little Teddy Bear when she is a little excited.

February 24th 2010 Up-date:

She was too funny this morning! I put her on my bed on her blanket in the morning after our walk so she can keep me company while getting ready for work. For her that is a treat! Believe it or not! I was trying to fold a shirt and she came off her blanket took my shirt with her teeth and dragged it to her blanket and then jumped around like she did great thing!!! I guess I won't be folding that shirt today, I said. Then I tried to fold these sweat pants and she did the same thing!@# Just too funny to see her jumping around.

Kenya (aka Leyla) - Update

We just got this email from Kenya in!

Hi Caroline, Joanne and Charlie! Well, I’m so happy in this house. I go for a long walk or a run every morning and then get to snooze until lunchtime. OOOOOOOH, I love noontime! I get to go to the park and make lots of friends! So many smells, too. It’s awesome! My pack leaders make sure I don’t pull on my leash, but when we’re near the dog park I just can’t help it. My friends are waiting over there! I take another nap after lunch and then play with everyone when they get home. After another walk, I get my dinner and hang out with everyone. I know I’m not supposed to beg or eat people food, so I just sit quietly while my pack eats.

A couple of weeks ago, a really nice man (with yummy treats) took out those itchy stitches. I can hardly tell I had a wound there, well, except that my fur hasn’t come back yet.

I get to play in the country on the weekends, but I really don’t like going in the car. I hope I’ll get over it when I’m bigger. I like to go outside at the chalet and watch the birds and smell the wild animals. I can stay outside as long as I want, or I can sleep in front of the wood stove. What a life!

Thanks for finding my pack!

Kodie (Now Ti-Jack) Update

The picture speaks for itself :P - he is doing great!

"Kodie is already getting along with his new daddy :) They make a wonderful team. Thanks again to eleven eleven animal rescue, and specially to Caroline and Leigh, who helped us finding the dog of our dreams :) Thank you so much ♥"

Jack Sparrow - Post Adoption Update

Post Adoption Update: Honey (now Molly)

  

Honey is enjoying her new life in NY and daily stroller rides in her pink stroller. What a luck spoiled girl! She has come so far when we first got her and a lost little kitten found in the middle of a road. This is one happy tail.

Nemo (now Ron) - All grown up!

Ron (previously Nemo) was rescued from a pet store closing down as a itty bitty baby. He was one of three rescued babies, and one of two survivors. Unfortunately at the pet store they were exposed to rat poisening.. one of them did not survive despite our best efforts and intesive care. (See his baby picture, when we first got him; here)

Update on Moon! Cute video and pictures!

     Moon and Madeleine were rescued from a shed at 6 weeks old when they were risking getting kicked out! They grew up with no human contact and were both terrified of humans! However both their foster family's did amazing jobs and they both turned into amazing kittens! Moon was adopted by her foster mother Krysten and and grown so much since i last saw her! She is such a beautiful girl, both of them are stunning kitty's. Madeleine is being fostered right now but is being adopted around August 28th! What happy endings for such a harsh start to life!
