Dakota

Today I coordinated an adoption for Dakota. Dakota is a beautiful Ryukyu-ken mix from Okinawa, pulled from the Ozato animal control center by Doggies Inc. He's estimated to be about a year and a half old. I met up with his foster mom, Autumn, and visited with the family that was interested in him.

Dakota is a very sweet and good natured dog, and he and the family hit it off quickly! He'll be going home this week!

Hello Leonardo

この施設からCooky君は来ました。

沖縄の米軍関連施設から保護され、ICチップ/USがットされているようです。
本土に来てから3ヶ月強で、日本語通じるのか心配ですが、苦労してきただけあって、けなげで、愛嬌が大変良いCookyくんです。
先輩猫とも早々に仲良くなってほっとしています。

Little Bird

Update! Little Bird has been adopted and is now Miley!

Found this little in the park yesterday and picked him up today. Very talkative with his tiny little voice. (Actually not sure yet of the sex; thought it too early to ask such a personal question.) We'll be heading to the vet tomorrow and once we see what's what will be looking for an adopter.

Skippy

日本語以下
Skippy is a 3-4 year old male Maltese (mix?). He was pulled from a high-kill animal control facility in Okinawa by Doggies Inc. and is now being fostered in the Tokyo area. He is neutered, has had his rabies and combo vaccines, is heartworm negative, has had a fecal check (negative), and has received his first dose of Heartgard and Frontline. He is extremely friendly and would like nothing better than to crawl into your lap and cover you in kisses. He is 5~6 kg. and is very good on a leash. He is pet sheet trained but may be able to be weaned off them if he can be let out every several hours, as he does have a hard time holding it for long periods of time. Skippy is looking for his forever family - please get in touch if you think that might be you! Adoption fee is $250. http://doggiesinc.org/
スキッピーは３～４歳のマルチーズ（mix？）のおとこの子。沖縄にあるボランティア団体Doggies Inc.によって保健所から助け出され、今は東京のお預かりさん宅にて元気に過ごしています。
去勢手術、ノミ・混合ワクチンは既に終えており、フィラリアも問題ありません（フィラリアとノミの薬は１回分終えています）。
スキッピーはと～ってもフレンドリーで、ひざの上に乗ることが大好き。たくさんキスしてくれますよ（笑）。体重は５～６kgで散歩もお手のものです。２～３時間であれば、家でおとなしくしてますが、長時間ひとりぼっちでいるのは辛いかな？と思います。
今、里親募集中です！もしご興味がありましたら、ぜひぜひご連絡の程を！お引き取り時の料金は￥25,000です。http://doggiesinc.org/

Libby

 Update: Libby has been adopted!

Libby is a 2-3 year old young lady rescued from a high-kill animal control center in Okinawa by the group Doggies Inc. Libby is probably a Silky Terrier or possibly a Silky/Yorkie mix. She is about 8-10 pounds. She is really sweet and affectionate and loves to snuggle up in a lap or in your arms. Though she's passing shy at first, she quickly warms up and loves her walks and shadowing you around the house. She is gentle and quiet and crate trained. Libby is filaria positive, which means she has heartworms. It is probably a light case as she shows no outward signs of distress (like respiratory difficulty) and is currently taking medication to slowly eradicate them. She is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Libby gets along with people, dogs, and cats, and she really loves love.

Solex

 Update: SOLEX has been adopted by a wonderful family!

Solex is a 2-3 year old Shih Tzu who was pulled from a high-kill pound in Okinawa by the rescue group Doggies Inc. He is a very friendly and sociable boy who gets along with other dogs and kids. He is great on a lead and is puppy-pad trained. Solex has short legs so he has a hard time jumping on your furniture! He has been neutered and vaccinated (8 way combo shot, rabies) and has received his first dose of Frontline and Heartgard. Solex wants to snuggle you and sit on your lap. You know you (or someone you know) wants to adopt an adorable Muppet-pup! He is being fostered at my place in Tokyo and is looking to meet his future family. Adoption fee is 14,000 yen.
