Pet of the Week: Energetic Joey is Always Smiling

He's a 1 year old, 30 pound, male, Whippet / Shepherd mix.

"Joey" is the adoptable Pet of the Week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society in Encinitas. He's a 1 year old, 30 pound, male, Whippet / Shepherd mix.    

At a weight of 30 pounds, Joey is a medium sized dog. He's very active. That might come from the Whippet side of his family. And he's very smart. That could be the Shepherd influence. He knows several commands including, "Sit, Lie down, Shake, and Roll Over." Whether it's because of his age or because of his breeds...Joey seems to have non-stop energy and a big, happy smile.

His previous family surrendered him to RCHS when they said they could no longer to afford to have a dog.  

Joey's $145 adoption fee includes his medical exam, up to date vaccinations, neuter, and microchip identification. 

Find out how you can adopt "Joey" or sponsor him until his new family takes him to his forever home. Call 760-753-6413...log on to SDpets.org...or visit Rancho Coastal Humane Society at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas. Adoption kennels and cattery are open Wednesday through Monday from 11 to 5.

Ciao Pam! Grazie per il tuo bel commento! / Thanks for your nice comment! Hope your trip to ItaliaRead More was fabulous. Buona giornata :)

Took this class before a trip to Italy. Very fun and was able to learn quickly with the way theRead More class was taught. Great instructor and wonderful insights. You will enjoy it if you ever wanted to learn Italian. Caio!

This is wonderful news. Congratulations to the students, their instructors and Academy staffRead More members -- and to the supportive parents. A theatre education is the best!

Hi Edward, I didn't hear any reports on the scanner or from sources of crashes, rescues or hardRead More landings.

The public deserves an objective, unemotional, factual public debate on this proposition. So far IRead More am still leaning toward a yes vote, but I am keeping an open mind at least through this month.

Thank goodness 'Jac' you are neither a Judge or member of Congress. The attempt at Ad Hominem isRead More appreciated however, true to your form. 'Grown-up' appears to be whoever agrees with you and not based in law or process.

Thanks for your comment, Frank. I'm certain you're not the only grownup reader of the blog - justRead More the only one so far. (At first, I thought some guys were putting me on; they have to be kidding.) You're right, of course, some Democrats voted against the E.R.A. for women. Shamefully, they and a majority of Republicans have defeated each attempt to pass the amendment so far. I still find it almost unbelievable that some of our neighbors think women do not deserve equal rights under the law. I thought that kind of thinking existed only in Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and some backwoods places in Tennessee.

'Frank H. Robles', I emplore you from your inference, please quit treating women as 2nd classRead More citizens as your start, toward equal rights and improvement of your relationships to women. This act alone, renders bestowing inordinate Rights or extralegal treatment of women as a group - moot, and aligned with our(American) precepts - as it is wholly unneeded under our Constitution at this time - hopefully, for all time.

Stopped by Sunday to take a Look, very nice homes, good location, fair asking price, should sellRead More well...!!!

Well said, Nama. I was speechless to see how many people Uncle Ben had influenced during his life,Read More but it's no wonder. There may be one less Ben Taylor in our lives, but Heaven just got a whole lot more fun!

Thanks, Kyle for posting this. I'm not sure how things were in the past, but as a Patch editor, I'veRead More seen that blogging and engaging readers directly is a great way to market a book. Steve Repak, a financial planner with a military-themed personal finance book, blogs regularly on Patch and has recently been featured in National Media.
