Congratulations Diesel!!!

Click here to check out my video on YouTube!

Meet Diesel, a young Husky/Great Dane mix who is looking to find his furever best friend. Diesel is a fun loving boy who enjoys playing and cuddling. He is good with other dogs, loves everyone and will make a wonderful companion. He is still a youngster, so he is full of energy (for this reason, we recommend he be placed in a home with older children). When it comes to those quiet times, he enjoys laying at your feet or in your lap.

Diesel has inherited the shorter coat of the Great Dane, but the markings and the enthusiasm to run from the Husky.

Diesel was given up by his owners, who felt he had “allergies”. A trip to the vet revealed he had fleas, which were easily taken care of. With flea products readily available at the local vets, Diesel will have no more worries!

Diesel is a smart boy ~ he knows “sit” and “come” and is eager to learn more. He will do best in a home that has the patience to train him and perhaps enroll in a basic obedience class for lessons.

If you have the time and the love to have a new “Best Friend Furever” ~ Diesel is your boy!

Congratulations Deacon!!!

Click here to check out my video on YouTube!

Deacon is a handsome four-year-old black and white male Siberian with a stunning wolf’s coat of shining red highlights. He is a good boy; well mannered and even good on a leash (for a husky).

Deacon’s story is sad. He came into rescue after being attacked by another dog. He received a bite to his ear that literally has caused a hole large enough to see through. Still, Deacon remains a happy, well-adjusted pup and he holds no grudges with other dogs.

He loves being with people and easily makes new friends on his walks. This boy would love a home where he would have human companions who include him in their daily activities and are home for at least part of the day. He is comfortable in a crate however he is very trustworthy in the house. He’s a curious, happy-go-lucky guy who loves to explore and hang out with his people however would do best in a home without young children. He can be placed with other dogs of similar size however he prefers to be in charge. He would also be content as an only dog. One glance at his infectious smile and gorgeous blue eyes will instantly brighten anyone’s day!

Our beloved Miss Daisy has begun her journey North of the Rainbow Bridge. Sadly, she lost her battle with cancer. She was a strong and courageous fighter, but in the past couple of weeks she had begun to slow down. Today, it was clear that her body could no longer fight and she was ready. Surrounded by love and showered by tears, Daisy passed quickly and peacefully.

Dearest Daisy ~ Wear your silver harness proudly. You fought hard and now you are free of pain. Dance among the stars as you make your way. Many are waiting to greet you. You will be horribly missed and always in our hearts… ~ January 16, 2012

This little Siberian Husky/German Shepherd Dog never knew what she did or why her family gave her up after so many years of loyal companionship (they moved without her).

Daisy was welcomed into rescue with open arms and she rewarded us with soft tail wags. She quickly realized she was with people who loved her and she is becoming a very happy dog again. She is good with people and other dogs and is easy going and a joy to be around.

Daisy has been with MaPaw for over a year. Although she is 15 1/2 years old, this little gal can still be feisty. Our Miss Daisy had been slowing down and a trip to the vet brought very sad news ~ Daisy has been diagnosed with terminal bone cancer. She will be loved and spoiled in our Husky Hospice program. Each day with her is a gift and we are delighted to share many kisses, hugs and kind words with her. Daisy has her own special bed and heated blankets to keep her comfortable.

Congratulations Chouix!!!

Chouix is a pretty six and-one half year old Siberian Husky/German Shepherd/Chow mix that actually came into MaPaw SHR at two days old. She was born on November 20, 2003. She was an adorable puppy and she has grown into a beautiful adult. Chouix was adopted to a wonderful family at 10 weeks old and has been a cherished pet and member of their family all her life. Sadly, due to life changes, her family has no other recourse but to ask us to find their girl a new home where she will be loved.

Chouix has always been a MaPaw favorite (even though we love ALL of our dogs). She is a very loyal and friendly dog, however, she can be a little shy at times out of fear or if she feels threatened for some reason. She has been raised with kids in the house ever since she was a puppy.

Chouix just wants to please no matter what; she is a loving girl who is an excellent companion and soul-mate. She will be best in a home with another dog to keep her company as she can be a little anxious when left alone. Chouix just needs a home where she will be safe and loved ~ and where she can do what she does best ~ give unconditional love and be by your side.

Congratulations Cerebeus!!!

Click here to check out my video on YouTube!

Cerebeus is a four year old male husky looking for love and a permanent home. Sadly, this handsome gray and white bi-eyed Siberian must say goodbye to his current family due to hard times. They are so sad and will miss him, but we have promised to find a wonderful new family for Cerebeus to love.

Cerebeus is a smart boy ~ he knows Sit and Lay Down. Typical of a husky, he can be “too” smart and knows how to push and pull open, unsecured doors. True to his breed, he is an escape artist and will need a home that is secure and “husky proof”.

Cerebeus is a high energy dog and can be an alpha. He can be very enthusiastic and needs some continued guidance and training. He loves to go for walks and will be best in an active home with a lot of exercise to satisfy his energy. If you are up for the Siberian challenge and ready for a new best friend, please ask more about this great guy.

Candy is a happy girl and that constant grin is contagious and a sure way to brighten the day. Please feel free to contact us for updates, we are getting to know and enjoy this pretty little girl.

Our dear Ben has lost his battle with cancer. In the last week, his health had quickly deteriorated and it was clear that he was ready. He passed quickly and peacefully, surrounded by those that love him.

Ben ~ wear your silver harness proudly, dear friend. Dance among the stars, free of pain. It was a privilege to care for you and an honor to know you. Until we meet again…. ~ 3.29.2011

To know Ben is to love him ~ Everyone falls in love with this big, goofy guy with those huge ears and oh-so-expressive eyes. Just being in the same room with Ben makes you smile. He loves everyone and isn’t shy one bit about clowning around and demanding attention.

Ben had a secret that he was trying to hide, however, when our happy guy began limping and crying in his sleep, we knew immediate medical attention was needed. It was a very sad day when consultation and x-rays confirmed our worse fears ~ ten year old Ben had an aggressive bone cancer that had consumed his front leg to the point the weight bearing bone could fracture at any time.

To ensure the limited time Ben has left with us is quality time it was decided the best course of treatment for him was to amputate his front leg. Ben has amazed us with his progress in learning to adapt to three legs ~ he has even learned how to do stairs to share his foster parents’ bed on the second floor, under close supervision of course.

Sadly, this operation will not extend Ben’s life, but it warms our heart to see him happy again and doing so well. He may only be with us for six months, it may be more, but each and every day he will be spoiled and we will enjoy his antics and embrace his love.

Our dear Missy has begun her final journey North of the Rainbow Bridge. In the past couple of weeks, Missy had been slowing down and it had become harder for her to get around. While her foster family did all that they could to keep her comfortable, she was clearly in pain. Surrounded by love and showered with tears, Missy passed peacefully.

Dear Missy ~ wear your silver harness proudly. Dance among the stars, free of pain. You are greatly missed and will always be held in our hearts. ~ October 13, 2011

Missy is thought to be a Siberian/Golden/Collie mix that has been part of the MaPaw family for eight months now. Actually, we aren’t sure of Missy’s exact breed make-up, we just know she is a wonderful, loving girl that needed a little help from her friends.

Missy is close to fifteen now and time has taken its toll on our sweetheart. Apparently she had a bit of a rough life in the past – her tail was previously broken in two places and her ear appears to have been injured or suffered from an untreated infection.

Missy has settled into her foster home where she feels safe and loved. As time goes by she is requiring more care and devotion. Her rear legs are starting to give out on her and she is assisted with a sling at times until she regains her confidence. She is on several daily supplements for her joints and dry skin and is prone to ear infections… Getting old is not easy, but she takes it in stride knowing she is loved.

This brave girl is more than welcome to stay in her MaPaw home ~ receiving the love and respect she deserves.

Are you ready for the big news??? Well ~ here it is…

You are looking at the future home of MaPaw SHR!! Yes – you read that right!

We are so grateful to Doug for his generosity and we know that both he and Siren are smiling down on us for making their dreams a reality.
