1/29/2012 Make a Donation or buy products that we sell through Donate.net Hi friends: attached is a progress report on our adopted saint; one of six from eastern oregon rescued by the Saint Bernard Rescue Foundation in October. Though a number of saints have passed through rescue and have been placed in the past few months the story and progress on these six has been particularly interesting. We look forward to all of you meeting Mr. Dibs in the future. He is a friendly and very sweet guy. As our friends, you have supported us in our efforts to help animals in need through our various activities. Your support both emotional and financial has always been appreciated. By purchase of artwork, having us critter sit, or by making financial donations to non-profit organizations you have helped us help all of them. We wish to thank ALL of you! There are still two saints of the six in foster awaiting their forever homes. If you know of anyone who maybe interested in helping these animals find their person and place to serve and love, please contact the Saint Rescue Foundation. On this less than lovely day, we wish you a safe and cozy new year. Sharon and Edd. Attachment progress report (PDF Format)

OREGON IS DESPERATELY IN NEED OF FOSTER HOMES - PLEASE CONTACT CAROL BECK IF YOU CAN HELP If you are interested in becoming a foster or volunteer with Oregon Bernard Rescue please download application below fill it out and sign and mail to address included. (You will need Adobe reader) Oregon Saint Bernard Rescue VOLUNTEERFOSTER APPLICATIONS.pdf These folks donate most (if not all) of the food used by local rescue. "Happy Saint Bernard's fed by donations from Solid Gold Northwest" Josh: an almost two year old longhaired male. Josh came into rescue via the shelter. He was one of many that are sold on Craig's list that end up going from home to home. Josh is a sweet and gentle guy but understandable a little confused as to where he is and where he is going next. Josh needs a family that is around most of the time until he knows where he belongs. He has had some obedience training, is decent on a leash, loves to be brushed and loves to play. We don't know how is with other dogs as of yet and a home with older children would be preferable. He also appears to be housebroken. Recently neutered, up to date on shots, HW negative and micro chipped. Are you the lucky family to have Josh come into your lives and his forever home?
1/29/2012 Heidi: is a 4 yr old long hair very sweet girl. She has loved everyone she has met. She seems comfortable in her crate at night and will go into it during the day, when nothing is going on. Heidi is a very well socialized dog and loves to ride in the car. She walks good on a leash but once in a while needs to be reminded not to pull. Heidi has to go to an only dog home and has not met any cats yet. Do you have room in your life for all of Heidi's love? 1/24/2012 Jenny: is a short haired, St Bernard, on the small side, young and beautifully marked. Best guess is that she is about three years old. She is very willing and has a wish to please. Jenny gets along with other dogs, cats and horses, although with female dogs she wants to be the dominant. She is good with children, but not with young men. She is very afraid of young men (teens/20’s). She has the run of 40 acres at the moment and sticks around at all times. She is still working on learning her name and to come when called by her name. She is nervous inside the house, although she likes the warmth and does settle down after about 10 minutes. She is very fond of small spaces, and will try to find the smallest space she can to hang out in the house. Jenny is a very sweet girl and wants to go home with you today. 1/15/2012 Shilo: I am a pure breed Saint Bernard, believed to be around 2 years of age. I have already had a litter of puppies this past year. I am the sweetest big moose you have ever seen. I love my people. Give me a little love and I become your best friend, all I want to do in life is care for my family. I am now with my new foster family with a bunch of foster brothers and sisters. I live with a Mom, a Dad, and two children, who are under 10. I also live with 2 other Saint Bernard’s; we are a social breed, and several other dogs from a Chihuahua to a Eurasian with many in between. I really don’t mind cats, here they curl up in my fur. My foster family has yet to find a friend I don’t like. I have had a hard life though. I came from a home who only wanted my puppies. My first vet visit I was 62 lbs. well underweight. I get very nervous around loud noise, if I don’t understand what is asked of me I will lay on my back. I will make some family a great pet, but I need a lot of patience. 12/24/2011 Samson: is a Shorthaired male that will be five years old this month. He was turned into rescue due to his size. We had to have some surgery done for him after he was turned in but he is doing fine now. He is not a dog that can hike for miles. He was around children in his previous home. He loves going for walks and according to his previous owner, he is housetrained. He loves any and all attention and is just an all around nice dog. A true Saintly couch potato. 12/18/2011 Olivia: is a 12 month old 45lb Pit Bull, that only stands 22 and 1/2 inches high at the shoulder. But she believes she is a Saint Bernard! She loves EVERYONE, even at the vet's office all the staff, fell for her charms! Olivia thinks that ALL DOGS want to be her friend and play with her. She is FULL of energy and wares out most other dogs. Olivia needs an active person or family that will run, bike, hike, ect on a regular basis with her. She is much happier when she can be active! (But she still likes to cuddle with her person/people in the evening.) Olivia has been in foster long enough to see six Saints find their forever homes, taking it all in stride. She meets and greets new comers and they become fast friends, as she still longs for a forever home of her own. Olivia has met the semi ferrell cat that lives at her foster home (Olivia LOVES to give her kisses), and if the cat is in a running mood they will run a short ways, then Olivia will turn, and come back to see what her foster mom is doing. She Loves to play, but needs a medium or larger brother or sister to play with. (she wouldn't hurt a smaller dog, just thinks she's a big dog!) Olivia is crate trained up to 5 hours, and partially house trained. She has been spending 5 minutes a day on a treadmill just to learn it, and she loves it! Do you have room for SAINT SIZE LOVE in a PIT SIZE BODY? 10/31/2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSQ0TD6sARc Fred: a shorthaired male that is approximately 4 to 5 years old - best guess. He is one of our puppy mill dogs. He is doing well and gets along with other dogs. Loves his walks and any attention that he can find. He is looking for his forever home or a foster person that can teach him what a normal daily life is all about. 10/25/2011 Roscoe: is a purebred 160-lb, 4-year old smooth coat Saint Bernard with a full mantle and mask. He is a gorgeous specimen of dog--turns heads wherever he goes. He is fully housetrained and well-behaved in the house. He loves having a purpose--training, hiking, working for affection. He is very obedient and loves to please. He loves all people, but is particularly fond of men. While in the house he is mostly a couch potato, he would do best in a home with a strong owner who keeps him active. He is happier that way! He doesn't do well with other dogs, small animals or children under 10. 6/1/2011
