| Owen's Orphans |
| Born in a small Illinois town, Owen Gardner loved life and he loved people, especially his wife, Betty Brown from Edwardsville. He had a magnetic smile and a way of focusing on others, to totally take in what the other person was saying, which contributed to his stellar career as a top executive with NCR Corporation. Owen also held a special place in his heart for animals and almost always had a pet, starting from when he was a boy. Owen’s last years at home with his family in San Francisco were spent in the company of a dog named Homer, then a Katrina rescue dog named Betsy, and Max, the cat who followed him in passing by a few days. |
| This section will be dedicated in the memory of Owen Gardner . All special needs pets in our care will be listed in this section. |

| Zoey |
Zoey is a red nose American Pit Bull Terrier. She is
about one year old. Extremely sweet to people, and
knows sit very well.
She was attacked by another dog and taken to a local
vet hospital, where another animal rescue group
agreed to pay for her medical treatment but then
were not able to care for her any further because of
her breed.
Hope was called in to help her and we gladly took her
into our adoption program.
She is a very good girl, submissive, and playful.
Because of her breed we will of course be very
particular as to whom will be able to take this
wonderful girl home.
No application will be approved for a renter, nor
someone without a fence. A background check will be
made to look for dog fighters, and people with anger
issues.
It will be very important for Zoey to go to a home
where she can be loved as a family pet, because right
now that is all she thinks she is.
She has some minor scares from the dog attack but
she is still as pretty as she can be.

| Phoenix |
Phoenix was rescued literally at the last minute from
Barnhart Missouri animal control. Phoenix has one bad
eye, though it is much better looking now that it was
when he was rescued.
Phoenix still is very shy, though he loves other dogs, and
is well behaved in the home.
He will need an owner who loves him and will be patient
for it takes him a while to come out of his shell.
He is very docile, gentle and sweet.
Look at his face, he just looks like he could melt the
hearts of so many. We hope he melts the heart of at
least one person who could give him a forever home.

| Mojo |
Our Mister Mojo is about 8 to 9 years old, beagle/blue tick
mix. Mojo is short and stocky, and loves adults, not so much
the kiddo's though.
Poor Mojo cannot go home until he gets through his heart
worm treatment. He is a very strong positive they say.
We are hoping to find Mojo a home with an older person or a
very laid back person. We think he would enjoy just being a
couch potato if given the chance.
He will play at times, though it doesn't last for long.
He knows sit, is house trained and will make the right person
the perfect match.
He is a true sweet heart and deserves this second chance at
any age.
Mojo was rescued 4-14-2009 from Barnhart Missouri animal
control where he had run out of time.

| Ruby |
Meet our little Ruby. She is a one year old lab mix
girl, who is medium size and weighs in at 43 lbs.
She is very friendly to all people, though she is
more picky about who her dog friends are. She
seems to like the males better than the females.
We think she just doesn't want any competition.
She is house trained, and walks well on her leash.
She prefers older kids to young ones, so no
children under the age of 12.
She enjoys car rides, walks by the birds, and
doggie kisses.
She says her perfect match would be female,
single, with perhaps a boy dog in the house, though
she says the boy dog should be bigger than her.
She likes them tall dark and handsome.
Ruby is very sweet and will make the right person
a wonderful companion.

| Chipper |
Chipper was adopted as a pup to what we thought
was a nice family with a small child.
He was returned, for no reason, family said just could
not keep him anymore. No biggie, at least they
returned him here where he is safe.
Chipper is a black lab/ Beagle mix about 1 year old.
He loves kids, loves playing, and is a very good boy.
Chipper is so named because he is always, well,
Chipper!

| Brownie |
Brownie is a two year old chocolate lab/husky
mix male. He is shy and needs a special owner.
One who understands how to treat a dog who has
been severely abused nearly their entire life.
He has no self esteem, so this makes him shy,
he probably doesn't understand why we don't hit
him, though we hope in time he does.
Brownie is a good boy, no accidents in his room,
he doesn't try to eat his bed like some of the
others, he doesn't really complain about
anything and is always happy to see the food
bowl or treat box coming.
He is just a tad over the knee tall and weighs
nearly 60 lbs.
Brownie cannot go to a home with children, or to
a home without a fenced yard.
We would prefer the owner be female and we
think he would too since the man that had him
before is who treated him so badly he is now
very afraid of men. Though we are working on
that and he is accepting the young man now that
comes to play with him. It will just take a while
for him to work that out with his new owner.
Don't let Brownie go through his life without a
home simply because his first one was so awful.
He can be a good boy if you just give him a
chance.
Brownie has no bite history at all, he is simply
very shy.

| Walker |
Walker is a two year old American Bulldog
male. He is super sweet, a little unsure of
himself at first, but very gentle with people.
He was rescued on his last day of life at
animal control. Walker has tested positive
for heart worms and will be treated before he
can go home.
Obviously his previous owners did not take
care of him or he would not have gotten
himself arrested and thrown in the slammer at
animal control.
He is very handsome in person, this picture
does not do him justice at all.
Walker is a large dog who weighs nearly 80
lbs, but there is 80 lbs of love in there!

Hey there! My name is Violet, and I'm a 4 yr. old, 30 lb. Basenji
mix female. I'm desperately seeking my forever family....could it be
you? Let me tell you a little about myself so you can make an
informed decision. Recently, I underwent an intensive month-long
training program at the esteemed Dog House Kennels in High
Ridge, MO. It was kinda like a doggy boot camp. I was nervous
at first when I heard I'd be going to "boot camp", but once I got
there, I realized the trainers were really nice and I really enjoyed
learning good manners! I hate to brag, but I think my forever family
(once I find them) will think I'm pretty AWESOME! I know sit,
down, stay, fetch, I walk well on a leash, and I potty outside.
Before I went to boot camp, I had a hard time relating to my own
kind...you know, other dogs? Now I don't mind other dogs
around, but I would still prefer to be the only dog. However, I
maybe could live with another dog if he/she was really laid back
and didn't bother me much. Probably no cats, though. Also, I have
a lot of energy, so I would prefer an active family. If you're a
runner, I'm your soul mate! I would love to go on long runs with
you and keep you company! I also think I'd get along great with
school-age children...especially if they'd play ball with me. I live for
my ball, and I'll even bring it back! On a side note, the trainers at
The Dog House Kennels have all fallen in love with me (told you I
was awesome) and they'd love keep abreast of my progress. So, if
you adopt me, they will give you a lesson free of charge so you can
learn how to reinforce all the good manners I've learned! Check
them out: http://www.doghouseinc.com/
Anyhow, no that you know a little about me, I'd love to learn
about YOU! If you think you're my forever family, please fill out an
adoption application and hopefully we can meet! I've been waiting
a long time for my "people" to come forward...could it be you?
Patiently waiting,

She has a stubby tail and her ears at times stand up.

We are hoping that a soft hearted person with a
good home to offer will come along for this boy.
He is a good old dog.
Jerry was missed on Euthanaisa day, and when we
went in to rescue another dog, we noticed he was
one day past his last day, so we figured he was
simply waiting for us to come get him.
Jerry is about 70 lbs, short and stocky build.
Please help Jerry live out his years where every
dog should be, at home.

| Gretel |
Gretel is an Aussie mix female approximately 1
year old. She was rescued on her last day of life at
Madison County Animal Control. She is an active
girl, adventurous, and playful. We think she wound
up at animal control after she had lost Hansel, and
eaten the bread crumbs that would have lead her
home.
She is happy to see people, any person really, she
loves kids, and is very pretty.
Gretel is knee high and weighs about 40 lbs.

| Clifford |
Clifford came to us the day before thanksgiving, via
the animal control truck that had just scrapped him
off the highway after he was hit by a vehicle. With
the help of many in our community we were able to
have Clifford all fixed up. He had a shattered
Shoulder, fractured Pelvis, Broken Hip, fractured
Humerus, and a fractured Femur. He had two
surgeries, and was healing when he was adopted.
After a month the family complained that he got into
things that were left around the house while they
were at work, we suggested crate training, for that is
how we teach all our dogs.
"Crate the dog, don't hate the dog"is what we tell
everyone. The family refused to crate him saying it
was inhumane, what we find inhumane is how many
pets are dumped because the owner refuses to crate.
So, on 2-16-2010 we asked them to bring him back
for it was obvious he would come back eventually
since they were not willing to help him learn.
We believe that Clifford lived on a farm, or in the
country where there were no fences to keep him
safe, he somehow wondered onto the highway and
was hit that day.

He is lovable, likes all other dogs, kids, grown ups, doesn't bother the cats, enjoys his naps on
his bed, enjoys walks, jogging in the snow, just about everything life has to offer.
He has decent manners, but if you leave him loose in the home while you are gone 12 hours a
day he may get bored and eat your remote, or something else that you do not wish for him to
get into. He is after all, a dog.
Clifford has healed from his accident, he is healthy, and weighs nearly 80 lbs.
Please if you feel sorry for him, do not adopt him.
If you truly like his looks, and feel that you can give him a forever home, contact us.
He deserves all that life has to offer, and certainly will pay you back ten fold.

| Miley |
Miley is a very sweet and pretty small fluffy
black dog. We have absolutely no idea at all
what she is, she weighs about 30 lbs and is under
the knee tall. She smiles all the time, and
appears to just love everyone she meets. We
decided to call her breed a smiley face, waggy
tail, mix because that seems to fit her
personality the best.
She was rescued 2-16-2010 from animal control
where she had run out of time for her owner to
claim her.
She is very happy to have been saved and
walked very well on her leash out the door.
Where ever she came from she had been well
cared for because she is perfect weight, heart
worm negative, has clean teeth, and a shinny
coat.
You just have to meet this adorable bundle of
fluff to see what we are talking about.

| Racer |
Racer is a two year old whippet male. He was
rescued from animal control on his last day of
life.
He weighs 32 lbs, and is about 26 inches tall.
Whippets are great racers, which is what we
believe he was. So his home should be with
someone who has experience with racing dogs
for they can leap small buildings in a single
bound, and have a high prey drive.
Racer is friendly, Gentle, and very handsome.
Help us give him a second chance at forever, by
opening your home to this wonderful dog.
