Happy Birthday!
We wanted to share Riley's birthday picture (click to enlarge), taken on April 14, 2008. SFSR rescued him from the local humane society just in time since he was scheduled to be euthanized. We have been so lucky to have this guy- he is our morning dog. He greets us every morning and night with his Samoyed smile and his seal-like bark! Thank you to Bev & SFSR for rescuing this wornderful, very happy Sammy-mix!

Hello - We wanted to write and share a link to a video of William playing with our family. We are so grateful to hear his happy voice! He is doing very well these days. We are very thankful to your organization for saving him and allowing us to bring him into our family.
Best Regards,
Zach and Nan Jacques

Blue came to SFSR in 2005. He was from a puppy mill in Missouri that was shut down. Several Samoyed rescue groups worked together to save this guy. Missouri rescue was full and SFSR had a foster home available at the time. Blue was flown out to SFSR, was fostered for a while as we worked to get him socialized, and then a perfect home was found for Blue in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Attached is a photo of Blue taken on 3/2/08 with his family during a hike they went on. From left to right: Chubbs, Val, Jay with Blue, and friend Tammi. Chubbs and Blue get along great--Blue looks up to big brother Chubbs and follows him everywhere. Val and Jay adore Blue. They brought Blue to our rescue picnic in the fall. Blue was nervous with all the people, dogs, and noise, but he did ok. He found a really great home!

Gunner and his new family. This is a picture of gunner. If you can, post it on the web site so the people that were involved in gunner's rescue can see him please do. He is doing really well, having fun in the backyard. Here is a picture when we took him to Santa Cruz. He was running like crazy.
