Happy Birthday, Leah!

Our Leah beagle is 10 years old today - she was one of nine puppies born right here at Sanctuary House! Lillian "Lily," her mom, had arrived from a WV rescue only days before. Everyone else was adopted, but Leah stayed with Lily . . . Lily was just beyond puppyhood herself, and certainly not ready to part with all of her puppies! Their personalities are very much alike, and even now at 10 and 11 they have no patience in posing for photographs!

The photo of both girls shows Lily and Leah at 6 months. Lily is very gray now (see picture below - even her formerly brown leg is now gray). . . children will do that to you!

Happy Birthday, Leah - good work, Lily!

Baby chicks and diamonds in the tree

Our Board member Aimee Lauer brought four little chicks this morning - they were rescued from Craig's List. As far as we can tell, two Easter Eggers and two Legbars. This weekend is a strange mixture of weather - rain, wind, and sometimes moments of sun. The  sunlight in the tree  this morning made the wet leaves and branches look as though they were decorated with diamonds. We are hoping and praying that Hurricane Florence will miraculously weaken, although current maps show East Coast landfall and predictions are that the storm may be a category 4. Stay tuned . . .
