INTRODUCING “NADIA” ~ Hoytt’s Perfect Score
A new girl for Carol and Wayne Stephens ~
Wayne has big plans in the obedience world for this girl!
Here’s
“MAJOR”
We spent 5 days at our cabin in Pigeon Forge with some
friends. We told them to go ahead and bring Albert their
little Boston/Frenchy rescue, since we know that Major
does well with other dogs. After a brief introduction,
the 2 seemed to do fine. Albert stayed in his crate in the
down stairs area of the cabin the first time we left and
we discovered that if we brought Albert’s crate within
eye sight of Major all was well. !
The best part of this new friendship was the bones.
Major had a brand new favorite antler that we gave him,
and Albert kept wanting to chew it. Major would let him
chew for a few minutes then very gently take it away
from Albert and proceed to lay down and chew. On the
3rd day I witnessed something I thought was quite
amazing. There was a Nyla bone in Major’s basket that
he didn’t care much about. Major took it out of the
basket and laid it in front of Albert. The Nyla Bone has
some sort of flavoring in the middle and Albert took to it
right away…..problem solved. Major didn’t have to
share the antler anymore and Albert was happy chewing
the Nyla Bone!!! See the photo of the two of them
chewing together. :) I thought that was very sweet and
smart of Major to make a trade!!! Such a good boy!!

Here’s
“NICO”
Nico was the neighborhood hero before
we moved from Colorado.
!
Our next door neighbor's were in Israel
when one early morning a
drunk driver left the road and plowed
into their house taking out
one corner of the house. !
It was five in the morning and Nico was
outside
and realizing something was wrong, he
barked his Dobe bark alerting us.
!
A tow truck was in the process of
removing the car. When Don asked
if the police had been called the tow
truck driver turned off his truck.
Don called the police. From this action
our neighbors were able to
get their house fixed from the driver's
insurance.
!
Nico also protected the neighbor's goats
from the coyote.
In March our boy received his angel
wings.
Nico was a hero to us and a devoted
much loved companion. We
miss him so much.
