Sweet Honey and Harleys

What a fabulous Saturday!  Today I had the pleasure of spending the day volunteering as a dog handler at the Augusta Regional SPCA's adoption event held at Shenandoah Harley Davidson's first annual Hawgs and Dogs event!  There were so many great dog organizations there and the Harley Davidson staff were phenomenal!  I really do hope they will host this event again next year.

We were able to bring 6 dogs from the SPCA to the event, one of which was a sweet little pittie named Honey.

  Honey is 5 years old and was an owner surrender because her previous owner had too many animals.  I met this little lady a week or so ago when I went on my weekly dog walking expedition at the SPCA, she was immediately friendly, the only dog in the whole kennel not barking, and begging me to take her out to play.  So off we went and I immediately knew I had to take her to this event today.  She was such a love bug!


Don't I make a good lap dog?

Sweet Girl
She clearly loves people and loves to snuggle!  She also met dogs of all shapes and sizes and was equally friendly to them.  At one point a cute little 4 year old (future dog trainer) walked right up to her with a treat, hugged her around the neck and then asked her to sit, and so she sat AND shook her paw!  She had many people very interested in her but none have yet to fill out an application!  This little lady needs a furever home!

The dogs don't often get to play with each other in the shelter but Ms. Honey and Hunter couldn't stay away from each other today!  They got along so well and got to roll around with each other most of the day today.

Here are some other dogs that the SPCA has for adoption that joined us at the event today.  Delilah is a 3 year old Australian Shepard mix, and Hunter is a hound mix.

Oh, and guess what else....my little Russy made a surprise appearance today to come visit all the dogs and so the hubby could check out the Harley's ;).  Of course Russ loved all of them and they loved him, especially Ms. Honey, he was putty in her paw.
