This sweet older gal arrived on Friday from Shreveport, Louisiana. A lady named Sherri M. had first contacted us almost a month ago when she’d seen this blind dog show up in the local shelter. Because of her disability and... Continue reading

Yes, that adorable little one-eyed tyke was happily adopted on Saturday by Carolyn S. from Pennsylvania and her dog Maddy. Carolyn, a long-time supporter, had seen him in our e-newsletter in late March and asked if she could adopt him.... Continue reading

I took these photos of Cap and Bugsy playing on Monday afternoon. They’ve become quite the pair of anything-goes competitors (the only thing we haven’t seen yet is kick-boxing). We’ve had other opportunities in recent weeks to take some photos... Continue reading

This is a little guy you haven't seen much of recently ... blind Zach, who arrived almost a year ago. He had come on the same transport and from the same shelter as Darla ... and everyone knows by now... Continue reading

We just today rolled out a new website design at rollingdogfarm.org using a WordPress template. This is a “responsive” design that will automatically reformat the website for smartphones, iPads and other devices. It also makes it easy for me to... Continue reading

On Monday a friend of ours, Leslie P., came over to take our photos for the spring/summer print newsletter that will go to press next week. I thought you'd enjoy seeing this sequence of outtakes -- these four shots were... Continue reading

And now for a post from the farming side of the farm. I took the photo this weekend in the goat barn. That's our Alpine dairy doe Twink, letting her two kids use her as a step-ladder to get to... Continue reading

For a bonus Friday post, I thought I'd share this funny music video our veterinary cardiologist, Dr. Don Brown, sent me. It's probably funny only for those of us who have endured this ridiculous, never-ending winter, but even those of... Continue reading

Along with Aurora and Widget, I took Sunny to Peak in Burlington yesterday for an overall evaluation. For one thing, we wanted the surgeon there, Dr. Kurt Schulz, to look at Sunny's deformed front leg and help us decide what,... Continue reading

If the early bird gets the worm, the early geese get ... the frozen pond. We had two very confused geese land on the pond on Thursday morning, only to discover it was still mostly ice. They kept walking around... Continue reading

I didn't take any photos yesterday when I was at Peak in Burlington, so I thought I'd just go ahead and post this cute shot I took the other morning of Wilbur and Aurora in the living room. In a... Continue reading

The photographer Melissa McDaniel emailed me this week to say she only has a couple hundred copies of her Puppy Mill Survivors book left, and she wanted to do another special discount sale for Rolling Dog Farm supporters. You may... Continue reading

I took Aurora, Darla and Widget back to Peak in Burlington last week. Our internist, Dr. Marielle Goossens, wanted the radiologist, Dr. Lynn Walker, to ultrasound Aurora's leg again to see what that clot in her artery was doing. That's... Continue reading

Yes, that's little one-eyed Aurora undergoing a CT scan on her neck last week at Peak in Burlington. We have a mystery here. As a result, this post might end up being the length of a mystery novel. Sorry! Several... Continue reading

Darla's left eye going blind wasn't the only bad news last week. There was plenty. On Tuesday, I had taken Widget in for her post-chemo "re-staging" to see what the status of her lymphoma was. Since our oncologist, Dr. Kendra... Continue reading

Well, exactly one week after he arrived, on Friday afternoon, Sunny came out of hiding. Alayne walked into the dog room and found him lying on a bed in the sun. He looked at her, got a worried look on... Continue reading

This is the little guy who arrived with Cap. The Arkansas shelter had heard about him at a rescue group in Shreveport and asked if we could take him. You can't tell from the photo, but he was born with... Continue reading

What weighs 5 pounds and cruises at 500 mph? If you guessed a new, super-secret drone of some sort, you'd be mistaken. If you guessed a tiny, wire-haired Dachshund mix puppy of some sort, you'd be correct. His name is... Continue reading

In the previous post I said that the leg in the photo belonged to Tanner. Well, here's what was going on just before Wilbur stood up and Alayne took the photo. Both boys were enjoying some winter sunshine coming through... Continue reading

Yep, there he is sporting his new diapers. He couldn't believe we were taking his photo to post on the blog. We told him not to be embarrassed -- about 25 million adult Americans have urinary incontinence, and in Japan... Continue reading
