Capaccino & Java arrived
on
4-30-05 in a Fair Oaks parking lot in a delivery van. They'd come
from Rockbridge
SPCA in Lexington, VA,
3 hrs away. The kennel floors at the shelter were being refinished & all
their dogs had to be cleared out. It wasn't in the budget to
board them
all & there
weren't enough foster homes available.
Through
the efforts & e'mails of a group of rescuers,
many of the dogs were set up with rescues in other areas. A van-load
of dogs was brought to our area & reps from various rescues were
there to pick them up.
CR!FR
found a permanent home for one dog ("Goober", now named "Rozenkranz") & we're
fostering Chino & Java here. They're very puppy-rowdy but are
learning manners well. They're also very affectionate, lots
of fun & very
sweet!

Rescuers
gather around the delivery van to
greet the road-weary pups.

Nervous Chino makes his way off the van. |
Chino & Java
are brothers, although Java is a good 7lbs heavier & a
bit bigger than Chino. They're now around a year old. Java is a bit
mellower, Chino is an imp! They're both extremely affectionate & friendly.

These
all-American mutts seem to be part beagle, terrier & hound.
They have many endearing qualities, for example: when
a siren goes by they literally howl like wolves! They
also have cute underbites.
