Welcome Tusia and Howard!

There are many good, caring people in this world willing to help out the furkids. Most millers operate in rural areas, away from most of the rest of society. They basically live in a different world than we do and many times are far removed from today's society.

In the middle of the American heartland there was a miller, probably more of a backyard breeder, who had purchased a male and female breeding pair of Cairns from another miller last spring. The female had whelped a litter of puppies and the male and female slept in the garage and spent their days wandering around the yard when allowed to be out loose. Accidentally, the female's rear leg was run over. Now the amazing part to me, is the miller actually had her leg repaired by a vet with a pin put in it. They were now afraid that being pregnant and whelping puppies might be too much for her injured leg to bear and decided to try to find both of them a good home. But everyone is that area is a miller and didn't want a "useless" breeder. They were just about to give up and have both of them PTS, when they contacted a lady who helps transport for another rescue organization and lives in the area. This lady became their Rescue Angel, contacting Col. Potter to see if we could help with them. This was the Rescue Angel's first real dealings with a miller and I helped her through the fine steps of "Dancing with the Devil".

A CPCRN volunteer met the Rescue Angel and picked up:
#2961 Tusia: Female, black brindle, 4 years old
#2962 Howard: Male, black brindle, 3 years old

We've run out of foster homes, but I couldn't say NO to these two babies. They are now part of the CP family and only good things lie ahead for them! Please help me welcome Tusia and Howard!
