I would love to adopt a female rott as soon as we are able to move to the country.

Molly is doing wonderful in our home. This was her first Christmas with us. Molly loved the Holidays... we had an average of 4-6 extra people staying with us from Dec 22-Jan 1st. Usually more... On jan 1st we had over 30 people here. Molly thought it was great. She played with the kids then gave the "I'm abused" puppy dog eyes to the adults. We told people not to give her table scraps, but noticing her weight gain I am sure they fed her. She had everyone believing she was underfed. Poor dog... so she is back on a strict diet again. She was looking so good. She also found out if no one would pay attention to her doing the wiggle giggles & bear dance that she could whine and someone would come running to make sure she is doing fine... It took us a while and a vet check to figure that one out. I just assumed with all the company and kids that she had gotten stepped on or something. It didn't take the vet too long to figure it out. Nothing like a diagnosis as "spoiled". Hee hee.. We had a family emergency last week and my mother took care of her... she (Molly) figured out how to open the dog food container... Hmmm... she is smart as a whip! Last week we took the horses back to the water hole. Molly and Toto jumped in on the run... It was so muddy on the edge because of the cattle that Molly had a hard time getting in... it was funny... she really isn't into mud... we laughed. toto just jumped in off the bank. Of course Molly had to come over and shake by the horses... just scared my horse to death.. hee hee.. She, Toto, Penny (moms lab) and Stryker (cat) have been spending lots of time gopher hunting. The cat is highly upset with the dogs. I guess they don't do it right. He comes over and bats them away from the hole... so you see a cat laying by the hole and the dogs all a few feet away waiting. It is quite comical. Molly has learned to help herd guineas. She does good job. She "brings" them too me at the chicken coop. She is really calm and matter-a-fact. She isn't so good herding cattle (although she trys, until they start chasing her). She grumbles and growls at the chickens when they get in her territory... they just walk up to her and cock their heads. Poor girl she can't even intimidate a chicken. Hee hee.. Just wanted to let you know how Molly was doing... and that she is well loved. We have decided that if when we get another dog we will again adopt a mature pet. EASY LOVIN! Gayle

We adopted Harley back in the summer after one of our Shepherds (Bam Bam) passed away after 12 years with us; we wanted to give an update. Harley has been a great addition to the family and companion to our other Shepherd (Blackie). Blackie was a lost sole when her friend Bam Bam passed, but Harley quickly became a great new companion for her. Harley loves showing off and doing his tricks he learned in obedience training; he is a very smart dog. Harley loves to go for runs with my wife in the evenings. My wife takes Blackie on a 3 mile run first and Harley sits by the front door staring out the window waiting for his turn to go on his 3 mile run. During the switch off from Blackie to Harley, my wife will put the leash on Harley and then will get some water before heading back out. Harley will take the leash in his mouth and walk circles around the living room as if saying, “Hurry up all ready, it’s my turn.” He also likes to take Blackie for a walk. While my wife is getting ready for the runs and puts the leash on Blackie, Harley will take the leash in his mouth and pull Blackie around the house. He thinks it is funny and so do we, but Blackie doesn’t always think it is funny. Harley also has an evening and morning routine. At 9pm like clockwork he and Blackie get their kongs from the bedroom and bring them to us to be filled with their bedtime snacks; Harley loves peanut butter and sometimes gets to have the jar as a special treat when it gets down to the end. After the Kongs are filled we tell them time for bed and Harley makes a mad dash to the bedroom and dives into his crate at full speed, usually resulting in a crash head first into the rear of the crate. After his bedtime snack, he and Blackie settle down for the night, each in their own spot beside our bed. When I get up in the morning to get ready for work, Harley assumes my spot in the bed for a few hours until my wife’s alarm goes off, at which time he knows it is time for breakfast and makes sure she doesn’t hit the snooze button. Our 9yo son loves Harley and spends time working with Harley on his tricks and commands. Harley loves to play catch/fetch and our son, being a football and baseball player, loves to oblige by spending hours throwing a ball. Here are some more pictures of Harley: http://www.oklahomagiants.com/harley.html

Just love our older Rott (Molly). She is a fantastic dog. She is great with children and all the creatures here on the farm. She just adores the chicks. I don't know what we would do without our Molly. Keep up the great work. We are so glad we adopted a mature Rott.

I adopted Max, A rott from a soldier here at Ft.Riley. The previous owner was cruel, he used a shock collar on him which caused severe damage to his neck and head. But those eyes, when I met him I could not say no to. He cost me way over what I was expected to pay. I was only suppose to pay for the fixing but he was eat up with worms and had to be treated several times to get them all out. He is a very playful little man. And he loves our female rott, Becca to death. Not to mention our boys 14 and 5, he is very protective over them. I could not live with out my rotts, they are like family. Ok they believe they are humans, please do not tell them any different. They are very spoiled. They sleep with my 5 year old, yes in a twin bed one on each side, nope he can not fall off. He moves, they stand till he gets settled then they lay back down. I could not ask for better companions for my boys.

I too adopted one of the bakers dozen, Eeyore. Recently I lost my 7 yr. old male Rottie, Buddy, to bone cancer. It was a sad and lonely place without him. My female Rottie, Diamond, was very depressed. Eeyore has brought new life back into our lives. He is such a lovable, wonderful dog and we love him very much. We are blessed to have him. Thank You, Rotts N Notts for the great work you do. I'll never be able to say enough good things about the wonderful, caring and loving people in this rescue group. Eeyore's forever mom.

We adopted one of the bakers dozen "Louise". We loved the name "Scarlett", so we changed her name. Scarlett has been the best addition to our family. She is truly a wonderful family dog. She is very friendly with everyone she meets. She loves to wrestle and play with other dogs. Thank you Rotts-N-Notts!!

About one year age we were privileged to adopt a Rott named Lexus.

We adopted one of the bakers dozen, Whoopie. She is a wonderful dog and a great pleasure to have around. Our family loves her very much.

Hoping to be approved for an adoption. Tell Harley hello from a lonely rottie in kansas who hopes he gets to come home soon.
