Poppy the Doggy

We are very pleased to announce that we are carrying first book of the Poppy the Doggy children's series, "Happy Birthday Poppy." Written by locals Jon & Verona Robinson about their loveable English Bull Terrier Poppy, this adventure follows Poppy at the park with her friends and stumbles upon her own surprise birthday party. We were honored when Poppy choose the Biscuit Co. to make the special cake which is featured in the book. The dogs sure look like they are enjoying it! 


Check out Poppy's happenings at her website and stay tuned for her next adventure. In the meantime, stop in to purchase her first of many adventures.

Marble - New Sponsored Dog ADOPTED!!


Can you guess how Marble got her name? If you think it's because she has a big round spot on her side... you're right! She's a sweet gal, 7 years old, who came to HSHV as a stray. Marble has beautiful red-tick coloring, and while she is a little shy, she is a typical hound and will follow her nose anywhere. She should be in a family with older kids (at least 10 years old) and in a family who likes to explore on walks! Marble was previously adopted and returned because she needs training the previous adoptee was unable to provide. Marble loves to hang out with people, and has been visiting us in the adoption center, where she's friendly with anyone who comes in looking to adopt. She is housetrained and she is ready to find a new home! Marble is a WALLFLOWER (orange): Shy yet charming canine searching for patient owner with relaxed lifestyle. Looking for gentle guidance to help her come out of her shell. Treat her sweet and kind and she'll blossom.
