Petra's surgery: Petra has been adopted by her foster family. Here is a video of Petra playing in bed with her pack |
| Mathias.... Adopted August 2006 a 3 year old neutered male dumped by his owner at a high kill shelter in eastern Arizona. Shelter workers went above and beyond to place him in temporary foster care for a couple weeks until we could get him. Through the efforts of almost all the kuvasz folks in AZ (David Gallagher, Jason Genet, Carla & Ken Shugg, & Beth Hepnar), Mathias was transported to foster care and will soon be on the road again to his new home in Grand Junction CO. | |||

Cheyenne.... April 2005 |
Dolly.... Adopted May 2005 Dollyhas done a great job overcoming her fear of men and she takes her job as a guard dog very serious. She is very observant and will alert her foster parents if anything appears strange and suspicious . However she is not an excessive barker. This girl thrives on human attention but does not consider cats part of her circle of friends. She gets along well with large male dogs. An owner with large breed dog experience is a must. |
| Shiloh.... Adopted by his foster family April 2004! is a 1 1/2 year old Santa's Forest neutered male. His owner in Redway, California called rescue when she could no longer deal with his aggressive behavior. She said she was taking him to be destroyed the next day unless we would take him immediately!  Shiloh's breeder Sally Furgeson wouldn't help.We told the owner to do the decent thing for her family's once beloved puppy. Please board him with the vet until we can get there. Michele and Edwin Hill drove 6 hours to pick him up and have been rehabing him for a couple weeks. He has displayed nothing more than typical adolescent kuvasz behaviors.
Thanks to everyone who has applied to adopt a kuvasz during thepast year, Shiloh will be going to his new home as soon as the Hills decide he is ready. |
| Isabelle.... Adopted December 2003 She is a real sweetie, very friendly with new people. She is a 7 ½ year old female, and has been in her current home all her life. She lives in Portland, Oregon. Her human has to move overseas, and must give her up for adoption, a difficult decision to say the least. Breeders Ilias and Kris Bakouros refuse to help. |

| Sebastian.... Adopted November 2003 was rescued by Helen Miller from a Texas shelter just before being destroyed. Helen found a great home for him in Houston and he is now helping a blind dog ! His new mom Marlene, reports that her old blind dog is using Sebastian as kind of a guide dog and is also playing with him, something she hasn't done in quite some time. In fact, the blind dog had been so down in the dumps, Marlene was afraid she might lose her. Now she has a new lease on life. Even her little dachshund has undergone a personality change and is having a lot of fun with Sebastian. |

Goliath.... Adopted October 2005 Kuvasz Rescue bailed him out after a month in the SF SPCA and handed him over to Akbash Rescue to test is aptitude with livestock. Virginia reports, Goliath is wonderful and has shown guarding instincts towards people but is NOT appropriate for livestock. I believe he has been a city boy all of his life. He is good with cats when on a leash and he is housebroken. My 5 year old granddaughter came over and Goliath was in heaven. He was gentle and calm and just melted when Amanda started petting and hugging him. He craves human attention right now and will challenge other dogs when they get near "his people". |

| Sam.... Adopted July 2003 was relinquished to Animal Control in Rohnert Park, CA when his owner died in March. Sam spent his whole life in a small mobile home, or tied with a short rope. The shelter staff could not approach him. Sam's only hope of survival would be if breed rescue took him . After a week in foster care with Pam and John, Pam reports, "He's doing great! He is really skinny, so I am trying to fatten him up. He has learned to trust us and is very puppyish and affectionate. He is learning where his place is with the other dogs and is learning the 'ways of the pack' quickly -- really smart pup. |

| Sassy.... Staying with her owner Summer 2003 Shirley in B.C. was in poor health and needed to find a good home for Sassy. Shirley is now feeling much better and is able to care for Sassy. There's no place like home........ |

 |
|||
| Maddy.... Adopted March 2003 While in foster care, Maddy was cleaned up, dematted, and had extensive vet care to clear up several problems including a yeast infection that caused a horrid odor that no kuvasz (or kuvasz owner) should ever have to live with! |
