Gracie, an Australian Shepherd-Jack Russell Terrier mix, is 6 years old. “I call her my blue-eyed, brown-eyed, lopped-ear dog!” says Vickie, her dog mom. “She and her brother, Finley, blessed our lives when we adopted them five years ago from a no-kill shelter. Gracie was left on a doorstep before her eyes were even opened. Maybe if her so-called owners had seen her beautiful eyes, they might have fallen in love with her like my husband and I did. She is the sweetest and most loving dog we have ever owned. She gets lots of attention from her unique eyes when we take her on walks.”

“Forgive the puppy-dog stare – Flash can't help himself,” says Danielle, dog mom of this 8-week-old future agility star. “No one can resist his blue-and-brown sparkle, matched only by the flecks of white on his tiny button nose. This boy has got a magical gaze that makes me swoon.”
Chanel is a 3-year-old, long-haired, purebred Chihuahua. “What do I love most about my dog? Come on, she's a Chi!” says Ashley, her dog mom. “I love every last thing about her, from her being the biggest cuddlebug; a spoiled little brat; being only 4 pounds; her long, soft, fluffy coat; her crooked teeth; and, most of all, her gremlin face!”
“One cold day in January 2009, while I was volunteering walking dogs at the shelter, I was rescued by an Angel,” says dog mom Sarah. “She was the deaf dog in the last kennel that desperately needed out.” Sarah adopted Angel the next day. After receiving certification as a therapy dog in October 2009, Angel and Sarah have been visiting nursing home, “giving and receiving smiles...there is nothing quite as precious as a Pitty Smile!” Sarah says.
Bambi, a 2-year-old Chihuahua, broke three toes when she was 5 months old. “She was hopping down the step to the patio when it happened,” says her dog mom. “Her personality is as cute as she looks. I love everything about her!”
