This is Jack. Kiowa's Jack Man to be more precise. But we just called him Jack-Jack da wonder dog.
Besides being a smiler, a kisser and a tail spinner, Jack-Jack is a grade A, number one collector!! (Isn't that an innocent face?)
One morning, as I was getting ready for work, I began a 15 minute long search for "the other shoe". I was wearing one of my work shoes, but just didn't seem to be able to find the other. I even looked outside in the
dog yard in case someone had taken to snitching my footwear. Nothing. So since time was getting short, I decided I would have to wear my old pair. I ran upstairs to my closet and got the old pair of work shoes, slipped them on only to discover that "someone" had chewed the whole back out of the heal of the left shoe! Fortunately, the left was the one I had of the good pair and they were both black. Yes! I went to work that day wearing two completely different shoes!.............................and NO ONE noticed!!!
THEN, when I came home, I took up the search again. While re-investigating in the backyard, I checked behind the old washer and dryer that have been sitting back there since last summer, (when my landlord was supposed to haul them away somewhere). VOILA! I not only found my missing shoe, but two other
shoes and my slippers were hiding back there too! Every day from that point on till the day he got adopted, I discovered shoes, slippers, sock, different bits of laundry, a pin cushion and other collected artifacts that Jack-Jack just couldn't manage to keep his mouth off of. He's a sweet boy and a little goofy and I could just never stay mad at him for more than a minute. He is now living with his new Dad, an elderly gentleman and the two of them couldn't be happier. (But I'm willing to bet the poor man can't find his slippers!)
Fosters continued....
Forbe's Grisu by name. I'm not sure what a grisu is so I just called him Grizzy-bear and he answered to it! Grissy was a sweet, sensitive, slightly shy boy who really loved people and gave kisses when asked. He just left me for his forever home about 2 hours ago and the place seems empty even though there are still six dogs, a cat and three birds here! It doesn't get any easier when they leave!

Here is Mr. No Name. He came with no name so my rep charged me with picking a really good name for him, so after a couple days, it struck me. He's a flashy boy so it's Flash. The Flashman. Flash Gordon. (Doesn't matter much at this point because he doesn't answer to it yet anyway!) LOL But he's a sweet boy too and very accomodating to the girls. They grumble and glare at him and he moves out of their way. Poor boy.
This little beauty is Eagerness. Pat C's Eagerness to be exact! She's a fun, cute, happy little girl who, as it turns out, is a consummate collector! Every toy in the house has ended up in her crate! You go girl!!
Look at THAT face!
The first foster at Dragonflyte in almost three years! Sullo or as I like to call him...SULLY! Sully is a very very good boy, but he DOES have his moments. Christmas day, he peed on my kitchen floor twice! But later that afternoon, he made up for it by smiling at me for the very first time!
Run your mouse over the pic for a little wink from Sully
Sully found his forever home on January 20, 2007 with a lovely family who volunteers for the same adoption group I do....Rainbow's End Greyhound Rescue in NE Pennsylvania. I'll miss him, but I know he's going to a greyt family! So long, my Sully boy. Love you and miss you every day.
Greg and Loretta, Sully's new Dad and Mom say he's just the greytest! He watches football with Greg on the couch and plays house with their kids. Below, Christmas sure can take it all out of a fella!
Oneco Classic or Classy as she is called by her new family. The first hour she was in my house, she found a comfy place to rest. (I didn't have the heart to tell her that it wasn't a bed)
