Jamie and Lexie
I spent the previous summer working and saving for a puppy so I was able to use my earnings to buy a Farmdog from Carol, Lexie's breeder. I came up with half the money and my parents decided that I was responsible enough to care for a dog so they paid for the other half and we prepared to bring Lexie home. I kept a countdown of the days it would be until Lexie was old enough. I still remember the day we got to go to Carol's home and see Annika and five cute, little puppies. My brothers and I let them crawl all over us and enjoyed every minute of it. |
Jera
and Daphne |
Jera has been very dedicated to the training of Daphne. Even before he got Daphne, we talked about dog training. Jera and his Mother read books together about dog training. I.e. they read the book "Before and After Getting Your Puppy" by Ian Dunbar. |
| Kenlyn |
 |
A teen making a Difference for Throw Away PetsKenlyn's deep love of animals inspired her to look for an opportunity to help discarded and abandon pets. After contacting several humane societies where she hoped she could volunteer and being refused because she is not yet 18 years old, Kenlyn and her mom, Susan, were introduced to the Friends of Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority (SVACA), a support organization for a local animal shelter. |
