I just got back from an action packed weekend at the cabin! There is still a lot of snow up there and I was in my glory..................... There is nothing like a good roll in the white stuff!




I spent the weekend with my canine and human foster family. Abby and I had so much fun.......... I even snuck a little kiss in when she wasn't expecting it!

Hello People! My name is Rick (short for Richard) and I am a handsome, well defined, Rotti X, looking for my forever home. Before AARCS rescued me, I spent my days scrounging for food and doing my best to find shelter during these cold winter nights (you know what I am talking about Brrrrrrr). Now that I am in foster care I get a full bowl of food twice a day, lots of water and my very own dog bed! A guy has to really love this life!!!

Right now I am living in a foster home with three resident dogs: Abby (she was an AARCS rescue also and her foster family couldn't resist adopting her), Charlie and Frank. I don't usually have much to do with Charlie and Frank (they are just little dogs), but I LOVE Abby. My foster mom calls her my girlfriend because we play and cuddle all the time. Abby even sneaks kisses all the time. She is such a flirt!

Mom and I went to our first training session last weekend and I was a star. I no longer pull on the leash and am learning to sit every time we come to a road (apparently this is a safety procedure to keep us dogs stay safe!). My foster mom and I practice training every night and I am catching on very quickly. Another thing I am learning is to sit before I get my food, which is very hard for me as I love my food (especially the new gourmet stuff called dog kibble).
Apparently manners are important so I am working really hard on perfecting them.
My real dream is to have my forever home................. Do you think that your home would be a good fit for me? If you are interested in me or any other rescue dog or cat with AARCS please visit http://www.albertaanimalrescuecrew.com/
Wags and Licks,
Rick
