1999 Success Stories -Part 2

  HOLLY - (left) This little active girl now has two boys of her very own to play with, and no other dogs to irritate and instigate trouble with. She'll have to take all the blame for her antics herself! She was adopted to a family in Green Bay.

TAYLOR - Tay Tay goes home! I knew it would take a very special family to adopt her, and she always watched expectantly whenever a car would pull up and new people would get out. Would they be her new parents? But she was passed by, always. Finally, one day a really nice woman with a very patient husband drove up, and the nice woman spent an hour with Tay Tay, feeding her venison and cheese bits and talking very softly to her. Taylor decided she liked these people, and thus she has moved to Milwaukee, where she shares a home with an amorous cocker spaniel. Hope he doesn't like pizza crusts as much as Taylor does! :) No matter how many shelties walk through Lisa's door, Taylor will always have a special place in my heart.

OLIVER - Linda from Iron Mtn. took one look at ol' tailless Oliver and HAD to have him as another member of her Sheltie Retirement Village. Thanks, Linda

COREY - Adopted to a family in DeKalb, IL who adopted Allie last year. After recovering from some emergency health problems, she's now fighting for couch space with her new sister.

JACKSON (no pic)- He went to a home in Milwaukee where he lives with a fluffy twin of himself named Shadow.

MAGGIE (no pic)- This little elderly girl came into rescue with some allergy and health problems that are now under control. She's living out the rest of her life with a WSR adopter who previously lost their elderly girl.

LADDIE (no pic) - Laddie went to a home in the Plymouth area with two children who will give him all the attention he needs.
   
 
 
SNICKERS - Snickers was adopted Nov. 13 by a woman in Green Bay. Snicerks had been taken to a vet clinic to be euthanized because the people were moving to a new house and didn't want the hair when WSR intervened.
BROOK - Born 8/26/94, Brook was adopted Nov. 13 by Snicker's new mom. Snickers will teach Brooke how to be a pet!
MISTY - Misty has been rehomed in Appleton with a couple that has another sheltie named Shadow and is now enjoying a cabin up north on the weekends and daily romps with her new sister.
TRINA - Found a home in Waukesha, thanks to our show in Milwaukee where her new family met and fell in love with her.
  
SLY - Adopted to a family in Hilbert, which is very close to WSR. He has some very big shoes to fill for a family that recently lost their collie.
 
     

SADIE#1 - Went to a nice single woman in Green Bay.

 
SADIE#2 - Went to a family in Naperville IL who had a sheltie before.
MICO - Meeko has FINALLY been adopted by a wonderful woman in Traverse City MI who will appreciate the wonderful dog that Meeko is capable of being, but hesitant to show everyone.
  
MILLER - Moved to his new home in Prior Lake, MN.
ROUNDUP - Roundup has gone to live in Plymouth with a nice couple who also adopted Rascal, the puppy who came from Iowa.
 
 
 
 
SASHA - This beautiful girl now makes her home in MN. She's healthy and playful . Sasha goes to a holistic vet who keeps her healthy. Cherry and Barb are glad to have her in the family. The cats will not decide for several years if she should stay. :)
TAZZ - This boy went to his new home in Missouri with a single woman whose sheltie recently passed away. He is now the love of her life and very, very spoiled.
OZZIE (Woz) - This boy is now Squeaker's full time brother in Kansas and his new family is working hard on taming his HUGE instinct to herd flying objects.
  
SHASTA - This little girl finally found a home in Waunakee with a nice couple who have dealt with a sheltie with behavior/chasing vehicles problems before. She is proving to be both a challenge and a great source of entertainment to them and they can't wait until she outgrows her wildness and settles down.
HONEY - (previously Sable) This little sheltie girl went to her new home in Appleton with a nice family and their two children. She had some trouble pottying on a leash after being used to roaming free in a fenced-in area, but she's adapted well.
 
CODY&COCO (no pic)- went to a home in Brown Deer WI where they have to learn how to use a doggie door to get out into their yard. It's nice that these two boys who came in together could find a permanent home together.
  
 
ZOE (no pic)- This little sable pistol will definitely give her new family some exercise. She now lives in Sheboygan with a nice family and a couple of cats for her to herd around.
  
SQUEAKER (previously Sheila): This adorable little stray girl went to a nice family in Olathe, Kansas, where she will live with three other shelties including Ozzie (Woz), whom they've also adopted. (Special note to the new family from the webmaster: isn't the Wozman great?!!!)
DAKOTA#2 (no pic) - went to a home in Sheboygan where a very nice teenage boy and his mom are going to spoil him rotten. Dakota is going to be Evan's constant companion and I'm looking forward to seeing him after his coat grows out.
SAMMY - went to his home with a nice single lady in Bloomington MN and has foster brothers and sisters all the time from the local humane society. Sammy's excited to teach them the ropes of what a GOOD dog is like!

LLOYD (no pic) - This bi-blue puppy was adopted by a family in Plymouth who had recently lost their sheltie (Abby) to old age. He lives with two cats and two teenage daughters that teach him stuff.
GIRL BI-BLUE PUPPY (no pic) - The last puppy of the puppymill closing was adopted by a nice couple in Delafield who had just lost their own sheltie, but inherited another and wanted a playmate for him.
DAKOTA - This 6 year old stud dog from the puppymill closing has moved in with Bandit's family in Minnesota. He is a gorgeous bi-blue with a huge white fluffy collar. Dakota will also be learning HTML since his new mom is a Macintosh fanatic (just like the webmaster!). READ THE STORY of his flight and introduction to his new home here!
     
TAYLOR (formerly Freeway, no pic) - This little man was returned to WSR due to health problems and now makes his home in Appleton with a wonderful woman who had owned a sheltie for years.
      
ROBBIE - "And another foster home bites the dust" as we joke in rescue. Robbie was being fostered in New London with Ginny and Tramp. (Tramp is another sheltie Ginny adopted from WSR.) When another family inquired about possibly adopting Robbie, his foster mom easily made the decision to keep him permanently. So Robbie will now be a permanent member of this household. This seems to be the standard among foster homes - it's too hard to give up the little peanuts when someone else wants them too!
PRINCESS - This little girl went to a home in Delevan where she will have lots of room to play and lots of goats to herd. She is looking for a foster sister or brother to join her family soon. Princess is a gorgeous flashy blue merle who just turned three in January. She is the third breeding female taken from the puppymill. She is average sized. She and her 5 puppies moved to WSR's homebase from her foster care home with Becky in Green Bay (Thanks Becky!). She is 1/2 sister to Phoebe, who was adopted in April.
