MEET “ARCHIE” !
This amazing creature came to us late last year.  After the very unexpected passing of  our lovely “TAFFY”,  I think the Spirit Guides knew we could not exist without a dog.  Brent and I were waiting for a dog to be sent to us, somehow. This is how we got “Corona” (left at our farm),  followed by “Taffy” , from Angels Animal Rescue in Merritt, BC. When they heard about Taffy’s passing, they knew we would give a fantastic home and life to another dog – one day.
A young girl contacted the rescue in Merritt and said she had to give up her much loved puppy. When asked why, she said that her mother’s old boyfriend was moving back in with them. She explained that he had killed their last dog, wrapped it in barbed wire and hung it from a tree.
Sorry, but you need to know how awful some people are to animals (and girlfriends,I am sure)
They welcomed this new puppy (about 1 year old) , and immediately thought of Tom and Brent and their loss.  My sister, who lives in Merritt, offered to drive the new dog down to meet us. The owner and founder of Angel’s Animal Rescue , Judanna came along and it was love at first sight !
Archie is amazing. He is so loving and sweet, not to mention talkative and playful. He loves the farm, chasing squirrels , investigating the stream (and its beaver dams) and keeping Brent company while I am at the nursery most days. Once Archie is a little older, he will be at the nursery some days . You will love him!
