Deuce entered our life February 14, 2005 — he is such a sweetheart with a gentle soul. When we got him we knew he would be our “baby” before our (future) “babies”. He’s just perfect for us and means so much to us now and forever.

Daisy entered our life February 24, 2009 — we rescued her from the SPCA shelter and even though she is a little crazy at times our life would not be the same without her. She is very special to us and we are honored that she chose us for her “furever” home.

Kiki entered Lindsey’s life at Texas Tech — she thinks she’s independent but actually she is very needy. She tried to run away from home once but quickly came back after she realized how good it was

Pookie entered Lindsey’s life shortly before Gary and Lindsey started dating — she is very shy and enjoys a good plate of food. If there’s company at the house you can bet she will be hiding. Besides being shy, she is a sweet baby and loves us very much.

Daisy’s Story:

Here’s the link to the story: http://fortheloveofthedogblog.com/news-updates/22-little-dogs-rescued-from-deplorable-conditions-video

Yesterday morning Texas SPCAinvestigators got a tip about a car filled with dogs. When a Grayson County constable tried to served a warrant, the woman locked the doors of the red station wagon and refused to come out. The odor of ammonia emanating from the vehicle could be smelled from several feet away.

When investigators were able to get into the vehicle, they found 22 small dogs, Papillons and long-haired Chihuahuas, crowded in the vehicle with blankets, pots of water and waste. No idea how long the dogs and the owner had been living in the car but the condition inside was just horrendous.

“The car was soaked with urine and covered in feces. The ammonia level in the vehicle was 23 parts per million even after the doors had been opened for several minutes. As a frame of reference, humans start experiencing health issues at 12 parts per million,” Courtney Stevens, SPCA of Texas rescue and investigations supervisor, said in a news release

The dogs, 20 adults and 2 puppies, were taken to Perry Animal Care Center in McKinney where they will remain until a custody hearing.

The owner, who was incoherent at the time, was not charged and the SPCA contacted Adult Protective Services regarding her care.

Here are some photos from the day she was rescued (along with her fur-family):
