4 new doggies have arrived!

Our wonderful volunteer picked up another 4 dogs at the pounds yesterday and brought them home to NARC. We have a very quiet male Schnauzer, very small and quite the looker... he certainly belonged to someone as he is freshly shaved with the Schnauzer cut, why did they give him up or did they just loose him and didn't come to reclaim him? God knows! A male Daschund who seems very sweet, probably very young as he was very excited to get to us. A male Jack Russel Terrier, very friendly and definitely excited to arrive after certainly a very long time in crates in a car. And last but not least - a "mouton /sheep" - yep, looks like a sheep but surely there will be a dog under all that matted hair. Bishon frisé or poodle mixed Maltese? We will be able to tell you once it's matted hair is removed which breed! It is very hard to tell when we see that big fat chunck of hair walking around... We will make it shed over 4-5 pounds of hair tonight! Obviously this dog was not in a regular household, was afraid of walking on the leash and although afraid of us, still let us pat and pick him up which is a good sign. Probably coming from a puppy mill or horder!
