Name: KC Marie
Nicknames: Princess KC,Twinkle Toes, Ms. Marie
Birthdate: 2/24/1999
Breed: Yellow Lab
About KC: KC Marie is my pride and joy. I picked her right out of a cage at the Silicon Valley Humane Society. They brought her into the room to meet me and she ran right up to me and plopped herself on my lap. I was now hers. KC is the best dog I've ever had. She is always ready to do what I ask and enthusiastically goes wherever I take her. She is my agility dog. Even though she's pushing 8 years, out on the agility course she runs like she's still a pup. KC has won Novice and Open AKC titles in both standards and jumpers agility. She competes in excellent, and will be there probably the rest of her agility career...just can't get that weave poll entry.

Me and my KC Marie



Name: Pip
Nicknames: Mr. P, Little Man, Peepers
Birthdate: 1/31/2002
Breed: Border Collie
About Pip: Pip is my little rescue dog. He came from Norcal Aussie Rescue where they saved him from a garage he had been locked in for 4 days. Little Pip had no hair on his back half, was a bundle of bones and afraid of everything. I had my work cut out for me, but he was worth it. Little Pip is a sweet boy who now wags his tail all the time, enjoys going places with me and for some reason all the girl dogs go nuts over him...could it be that cute face of his? He also is learning agility, but has recently excelled at the frisbee, which pretty much comes natural for him. Since he can't not catch a frisbee, I decided to go for that with him and joined Disc Dogs of the Golden Gate. He has quickly made a name for himself in the group and just recently won third place on the West Coast in the novice group. That's my little boy!




Name: Gidget
Nickname: The Smidge
Breed: Shitzu Poo
About Gidget: Gidget is a big dog in a small dog outfit. She was adopted from C.A.R.E. rescue. She was first adopted by someone else who returned her after two days. Not sure why, she is about the easiest dog to care for that I've ever had. She adores her big sister KC and follows her everywhere. At night she keeps warm by snuggling up with KC on her bed. Even though they are all bigger than her, she feels it is her personal job to keep the cats in check. Go Smidge!!




Name: Amber
Nickname: Baby Amber
Breed: Domestic Long Hair
About Amber: While shopping at Petco, someone brought Baby Amber in to find someone to take her. It was the middle of winter and they had found her in a dumpster. She was about 5 weeks old. I was just thinking of getting a kitten so, just like that I took her. Amber is the 'sweet' cat. She dives under the bed when visitors come. Some people don't believe she exists. But when everyone is gone, she slinks out and looks for some pets

Name: Zach
Nickname: Mr. Zach, Big Boy
Breed: Big Orange Tomcat
About Zach: Zach is the newest addition. He came from the Friends of San Martin Animal Shelter. He is the friendliest cat I've ever had. He will go up to say 'hi' to anyone. Has experience helping the handyman, plumber and the fence builders. Loves to snuggle and no lap is safe. He has even converted non-cat people into Zach lovers. Could have a future in Cat Therapy.
