| 33 | 18 | 1 | Benny | 29 | 1999-11-01 | Benny1.jpg | 123346952914130Benny2_09.jpg | 12350988071528000BennyTnp_09.jpg | 0000-00-00 | 0000-00-00 | 1 | Benny is a "special needs" boy who has been with us a while. He has been diagnosed with Addison's Disease which is treatable with medication. | Grey and White | Benny is a "special needs" boy who has been with us quite a while. He has been diagnosed with Addison's Disease which thankfully, is treatable with medication. It took quite a while for the doctors to come to a definitive diagnosis. As mentioned above Addison's is treatable and Benny is currently on medication to control the disease. He has improved dramatically and seems to be his old self again.All of us at the BAAC know how important it is to make a lifelong commitment to an animal and believe that each animal's life has intrinsic value. Afterall, how could we turn our backs on a dog that exudes such personality and uniqueness? Benny has always been a little insecure around strangers and he isn't the best little boy when being groomed. But he is worth the extra effort put forth to help him feel secure because when he does, he is such a cuddle bug! For example, someone at the BAAC noticed how Benny just loved his squeaky hotdog and wouldn't put it down for anything. Knowing that he has been a little irritable when being groomed, they decided to allow Benny to have his hotdog during his next bath and grooming. Hence, Benny sat through almost 2 hours of his grooming session, holding his hotdog in his mouth, never growling or snapping at anyone! During Benny's illness, staff and volunteers spent many hours with him, giving him love and support. Benny would cuddle and hide his face in their lap, looking so sad. As you may guess, Benny would not do well in a home around young children as their fast movements can easily startle him. He would do wonderfully though with a quiet couple or individual who can give him the time necessary to feel comfortable around them. He is primarily best with the female gender but has done well with the men who work at the BAAC and have given him the time he needed to become relaxed around them. **If you are unable to adopt Benny but would like to contribute to help offset the large expense incurred with his treatment and care, you may donate via several ways: By Mail to the BAAC (with a note indicating that you would like your donation to be put towards Benny's care):

There isn't much we need to say in order to find a home for little Lillianne. | Sable | Look at this face. There isn't much we need to say in order to find a home for little Lillianne. We only have photos of Lillianne being held because no one wants to put her down to allow her to walk on her own. Of course, we will have many applications on Lillianne, but we want to choose the best match of a home for her. She's tiny and will need someone home with her to train her. And, she will need lots of love too! |

| 744 | 18 | 1 | Morgan | 18 | 2004-07-04 | 12960143081601285Morgan1.jpg | 12960143081411091Morgan2.jpg | 131047477441687MorganTnpa_11.jpg | 0000-00-00 | 0000-00-00 | 0 | In her photos above, Morgan is sporting different haircuts. | Grey | In her photos above, Morgan is sporting different haircuts. Morgan is very loving. Sometimes she can be a little apprehensive around new people but she warms up quickly. She can also be particular with some of her canine friends. Let's say she's a little choosy. Morgan needs to be adopted into a home where someone is home all day so she can get on a set house training schedule. In her past, Morgan would have a few mistakes in her home due to receiving mixed messages on her training. At the BAAC, we have had Morgan up front in our offices during the day and she hasn't shown any problem with house training skills. So, basically, Morgan needs to find that special someone who is home with her and where she can be the only dog. She would not do well around young children or a very active household.Once Morgan bonds to someone, she is a real sweetheart and very loving. This girl may require some extra work and time to get established, but she's such a sweetheart that she's worth it! |

Watch Waldo move and move and move. | Tan, black and grey | This is Waldo. Watch Waldo move and move and move. Waldo is a little bundle of energy. Of course, he just recently turned one year of age so he is still a youngster. It is difficult to get a good photo of Waldo because he just can't seem to stay still. He's visiting and running, then visiting again and back to playing. Waldo enjoys playing with other dogs and he can use his voice to let you know he wants to be with you or with the other dogs to play. Waldo is quite sweet and should grow into a wonderful, loving adult because he wants to learn, please and loves attention. |
