Happy 2nd Birthday to Bella's Baker's Dozen
December 13, 2011
Happy Howl-i-days to our puppy family.
Our family has grown yet again….. +1 = Boomer, Aqua, #8, has returned.
Sickles Family of Danes 2011.
Same Santa as last year when Levi was returned. Levi was returned Nov 20 picture taken Nov 21. This year Boomer was returned Nov 19 and picture was taken Nov 20th. The Santa and his cronies all remember us and our well behaved dogs.
They said they love our dogs and our story so much they have considered using our photos for their advertising.
Hey check out Levi - look at his feet, he is sitting on the bench right next to Santa. He remembered Santa from last year. Boomer was falling over in the picture. This was his first official Santa photo. So he was not quite sure what to do. He did well with all the stimuli around.

Happy Holidays 2010 from the Sickles Pack
Our family has grown from two Great Danes to three. Levi came back to his birthplace.
Rather than try to rehome him we have decided to keep him with his original family.
We love them all!

Brenda and Luke's Philosophy about animal rescue
Pets should be spayed or neutered to save their life or the life of another unwanted pet that may not be rescued and will have to fight for life.
Treasure your pets. They are a creature created by God and we have been appointed their caretakers. Take care of them and treat them just as you would your children. If you cannot do so, you should not own a pet. They love unconditionally even though some owners do not deserve that love.
Animals are childlike; they rely on their human companions for their shelter, safety, and food. We refuse to watch God’s creatures suffer because humans make bad choices, therefore we rescue because humanity is flawed.

Puppy Mill Awareness - Marmaduke
With the movie Marmaduke opening June 4, 2010 there will ultimately be a peak in Great Dane breeding as well as many other breeds featured in the movie. What does that mean? It means that in 6 months to a year there will be tons of abandoned Great Danes (mostly Danes because their size and care outgrows most households not prepared to care for them) in shelters and rescues all over the United States. Please be aware and share this brutally honest book with everyone you know who might be slightly interested in PURCHASING a dog. Download the FREE E Book below from Happy Tails.

Lost Souls: FOUND! Inspiring Stories About Lost Souls: Great Danes
Excerpt: When we first brought Bella home from the rescue, our 10-year-old English bulldog, Tonka, did not appreciate her enthusiasm to become instant best buddies. Bella’s quieter approach the second time we introduced them went well, and though Tonka remained the boss, they reached an agreement. Tonka quickly learned that Bella had many talents; for example, she could shield him from the rain when he used the bathroom. His strategy was to wait until Bella did her business and then quickly run down the stairs and stand under her to pee. “Bella Umbrella” tolerantly waited, checking between her front legs to make sure she was covering him completely. She’s his perfect “big” little sister. Debbie, Scott, Kaitlyn, and Ben McIntyre
