Reba: Her loving humans rescued Reba when she was six months old
from a breeder who had kept her in a small cage her entire life.
Although, Reba's fontenelle never fused shut, she has lived longer
than any veterinarian expected. With plenty of love and proper
care from her devoted humans, Reba grew into a happy healthy adult
and is now 9 years old!! She is only 4 pounds, but she is every
bit as big as a Great Dane to her loving family! Reba enjoys snoozing
lazily on a caring shoulder and spends her days being cuddled
and loved. Lucky Dog!

Scarlet Rose is a "Doggie Diva" who is truly adored by her loving
family. She has been in several pet fashion shows and has won
several ribbons including a Grand Prize. She loves to dress up
and show off. She has her own shop called "My Scarlet Rose" Doggie
Boutique. After her debut on a couple of local News Stations showing
off her modeling skills, Scarlet became almost impossible to live
with and her humans had to remind her firmly that at home she
is just part of the pack and Mommy and Daddy are the pack leaders.
But no matter how often they have to remind her of her place in
the family, Scarlet Rose is never allowed to forget that she is
loved by all!

Anabella's devoted human describes her as "a little lover"
because she always wants to cuddle and loves to sleep on peoples'
heads. She greets everyone with a tail-wag and a toy in her mouth
for any kind "volunteers" to throw. She can play in
the yard for hours and loves her toys!

Carmel Corn: Adopted from a ferret shelter at a tender age, Carmel
Corn has been the apple of her human's eye ever since. Her devoted
human describes her as, "a little tiny girl with a big heart"
and tells us that Carmel Corn only uses clean litter boxes and
has trained her momma to keep them spic and span! She loves to
stand up on two feet and welcomes any new ferret into her home
with enthusiasm and curiosity, especially the ferret babies. Carmel
Corn is truly an angel in disguise. Look closely, she may show
you her wings!

Rusty came to live with his loving family when he was four months
old. He was "discounted" because of his color - which
some people, apparently, consider "ugly" and undesirable.
Of course, Rusty's new family could see right
away what all those other people missed - that Rusty was beautiful,
loving, and capable of being a true best friend to the humans
who chose him. (What a lucky dog! What a lucky family who could
see him so clearly!).
Rusty's favorite past time is holding his daddy
down to be tickled by his mommy. He doles out kisses generously
to his loved ones and is a very talented dancer who is learning
to jump for treats and toys.

Tara Storm was from a feral litter and about
to be shipped off to a farm, as "unadoptable," when she was rescued
by her devoted owner. Once Tara was ensconced in a loving family,
she proved herself to be quite "adoptable" and loving.
From the glowing praise bestowed upon her by her loving human,
it is very clear that she has enjoyed a very loving home ever
since.

Our 2011 Pet Lover's Star Search
Honorable Mention
(although they will not be made into rubber stamps,
these are just a few of the pets whose most precious of faces made
our choice so difficult this year - seriously, I say this every
year and it is always true: it was agonizing that we couldn't choose
them all!), in no particular order.
