    Harlin lives with a 10 year old boy and a 12 year old girl and the children get along well with Harlin. Sometimes when he gets too excited, he would light nip at the children’s ankles to invite more play. Supervision and voice command corrections are recommended. He’s a solo dog at the foster’s at the moment.

    On a regular day, the tiny 2 month old Harlin joined the foster mom and the children for the stroll. Harlin followed so happily and playfully without any fear. The foster mom didn’t see him with any other people, puppies (siblings) or mom, and in fear of him being run over by the busy traffic, the foster decided to scoop him up. Harlin loves people but is still very loyal to his family. He can be picked up and petted by strangers, but if his family is nearby and he can’t get to them, Harlin would cry to get to his family from the stranger. Currently, Harlin lives with a couple, a 12 year old girl and a 10 year old boy. The boy is responsible for feeding Harlin. The foster family takes Harlin to the neighbor’s to socialize regularly. On weekends, the family takes Harlin to the park for more fun. Harlin enjoys car rides!

    The rescuer saw a Facebook post asking for help. In the post, there were two dogs’ pictures and the person said they couldn’t keep the dogs and would put them to the shelter if no one could help. The rescuer quickly contacted the person and drove more than an hour to pick up the dogs. Panda and Sock’s mother came to say hi to the visitors (rescuers). The person withe dogs said that the mom was a stray and came to their home and gave birth to 6 pups. The mom and the pups only ate the human leftovers to survive. When the pups reached 1 month old, the person’s dad kept one pup and drove the rest 5 out to dump. The person with the dog was angry and drove out to look for the puppies, but could recover two. In Taiwan, the superstition was the dogs with white feet are unlucky because the luck would leak out from their feet. The rescuer took the pups home to prepare them for their forever home.

    Marnie was found abandoned in at the recycling centre. At the centre, large trucks come in and out and is not a safe place for a pup. Marnie is active, happy and not skittish. She’s communicative and would bark to get you to feed her. She’s still in her puppy stage so would want to chew on people’s pants. She likes to climb into the bed to sleep. Once she’s on the bed she’s fast asleep!
