(Ottawa Dog of the Week for February 8th/10)

“Stuart is a Shnauzer/Poodle Mix and has been the rock at his Mom’s side ever since he came into her life as a 5 week old puppy. He’s a happy laid back guy who doesn’t care too much for organized dog sports, but loves to curl up on the couch and watch a good home makeover show. He loves is new baby sister, Boogie, and spends most days keeping his Mom company from her home office where she is the founder of a national charity, Fertile Future. The highlight of Stuart’s year was being the ring bearer at his human’s wedding last summer. His humans know just how lucky they are and feel so grateful to have this little angel in their lives.” – Stuart’s Humans, Liz and Scott

(Ottawa Dog of the Week for February 1st/10)

“Hello, my name is Percy. I am a six year old black lab and Chesapeake Bay retriever. I grew up on a farm in the Ottawa Valley, I have moved to Kingston and walked on limestone paths, and then moved to Ottawa in the summer. I have enjoyed going to the Bruce Pit park and meeting new friends!

I like running after smells, rolling in snow, getting dirty and playing with my younger sister, Jupiter the cat. We run around the house after each other then we curl up and sleep together. Life is good!!!” – Transcribed by Percy’s human, Sarah

Keno is known to the area as the most lovable dog, the whole neighborhood were on the lookout for him. He is well loved and such a calm, kind dog. He was outside the store with people all around and his leash was over a ceramic post because were always in and out. My fiance went inside to grab his keys to put him in the house because he had this weird feeling and thought he didn’t want to leave him outside anymore. Its funny how your intuition is trying to tell you something. He went inside for 1 min and Keno was gone. So in order for him to have been let loose someone took his leash off the post. Its been two days of non-stop looking for him and we want to make sure people are aware this dog is stolen.

Keno is mix of a boxer and Staffordshire Bull Terrier. He is caramel color with a white all around his neck and a white line between his eyes and has a very pink nose.

He was last seen on 461 Donald street at Dino’s Food Mart between 2 and 3pm.
Please email Ranya or call 613 913 6997 if you have seen Keno.

His name is Riley and he’s a beagle/aussie mix with a docked tail. He is wearing a red collar, no tags. No one has yet reported spotting him but I’m hoping someone will see him and let me know. Riley ran away from Bruce Pit. If you’ve seen him, please email Heather or call her at: 613-323-5690

UPDATE

Thank you so much for posting the information about Riley. This morning he came home! My neighbour found him wandering behind my house and put him in my yard. He found his own way home and I’m so very happy (and amazed). Thanks again for everything.

Brandy was a special dog who lived in Saint John, New Brunswick – she only had three legs! This is a story from her family.

“I am not ready to go visit the Saint John Animal Rescue League”, I firmly stated to the family. We had only put down our spcial friend, Moscow, after 10 years. But after a week I caved in and went to visit our special animal shelter. We looked around and wanted to bring home every one of the dogs. A beautiful set of brown eyes followed us around the room. They belonged to “Brandy”, an adorable whiskey-coloured small dog; however, no one seemed the least bit interested in her. Upon asking if we could see here, the attendant took her out of the cage and held her in his arms. He said that no one would take here as she had a disability. When she was a pup, she tried to climb up an old-fashioned scissor-type baby gate and was so seriously injured that a complete amputation of the right hip and leg was required. Well, that did it for us and Brandy was officially adopted.

She became a dear little companion to the family and won over everyone she met. She could dance around in fast circles if she knew it was time to get in the car and head to Tim Hortons. She always got a little treat.
