change for his Pei friends.
Operation Scarlet has experienced several critical situations this year. First the computer crisis,
nearly losing all files from the past 22 years. Thanks to so many of you who sent donations toward a
new computer and for recovering the files, we were able to rise above the problem. Then in May,
water pipes broke in a wall at the OS headquarters. Water damage was extensive – ceiling came
down, wall was removed and flooring was ripped up. We are now again faced with a crisis situation.
OS is presently in desperate need of funds. The reps, volunteers and yes, even the four legged kids
would appreciate any help you can possibly give. We have not been able to hold any events at the
headquarters due to the damage and appointments needed to be postponed. The extent of damage
amounted to almost $10,000. We are not in a very good place right now. All help will be greatly
appreciated.

Help Operation Scarlet Continue To Help Dogs Like Happy Jack
Operation Scarlet has rescued over 1150 Shar-Pei
in the past twenty-two years, including Happy Jack
pictured on the far left with his ladies, as they
watch the cat on the front porch...the cat adopted
us last winter, and so far, Jack is the only one who
is super welcoming of him!
Happy Jack was rescued in 2011 and needed to have his rear
leg amputated and total ear ablation. Thanks to Operation
Scarlet Happy Jack has found a loving forever home.
Wrinkles was found as a stray and taken

shelter

her
background is unknown. She’s shy when

people

has
taken
all the new faces and experiences at OS
in
stride.
She
has
become
more
confident and is beginning to show a
sweet
personality.
She’s
looking
for a home where she can feel safe,
secure
and
loved.
In
that
home,
she’ll surely come out of her shell and be
the best dog ever.
Jasmine is an adorable mini Pei. She weighs only
33 pounds and is a beautiful apricot dilute
brushcoat. According to her owners she is about
7 years old.
You would never know that because she is full of
energy and exudes a bubbly, bouncy personality.
Jasmine is absolutely adorable. She would be an
even happier little dog if she had a forever home.
Charlie Brown is 2 years old, very well
behaved, quiet little guy who was an owner
surrender.
He is longing for a forever home with someone
to love.

Leola Flea Market
Beautiful weather, a terrific turnout and the team work of those who donated their
time and sale items, made this one of our best flea markets ever!
Kevin, Gwen and Kate arrived at about 6AM and set up the canopy and unpacked
lots and lots of items. Mary, Helen, Pam and Dotty also worked very hard at
drawing the people to the tables and selling the items. It was well run, very
organized and the shoppers were impressed.
Gwen’s delicious giant cookies and whoopee pies were as usual a hit and
extremely delicious. All baked goods were sold. Not one cookie was left.
Many thanks to Gwen for donating the $16 for the rental space, and to Pam and
Nancy for donating water and soda.
Everyone's hard work paid off, raising a total of $424.25 for the kids at the rescue.
The many donated items for sale.

Hello Dawn,
Samson celebrated his 10th birthday June
10th and wanted to send you a picture of
him and his cake. He's doing great.
He sends a big hug to you!

Our boy, Java, who Denise Brodhecker adopted, is
making friends with an 18 month old Great Dane
named Preston.
Denise is fostering him. I met him last night and he
is an awesome dog. He puts new meaning into the
term "Gentle Giant".
Denise said Java really likes Preston because he is
not high energy. Java is a laid back kind of guy.
Star very much enjoyed our cross-country road trip to get here, and I've
attached a picture of him at the Dunes National Lakeshore in Indiana,
as well as one of his first time in the Pacific Ocean from over the
weekend. I hope you are doing well - I'm sure Scarlet's kids are keeping
you busy. As we approach the one year mark with Star, we just want to
thank you again for giving us the opportunity to bring this special guy
into our life! We love him so much and are so grateful that he had so
many wonderful people looking out for him until we were able to find
him. He sends lots of big smiles your way!
Best regards,
Nora

There is a story told by the American Indians
that the Great Spirit decided to divide the worlds
of animal and man, so he gathered all the living beings
on a great plain and drew a line in the dirt.
On one side of the line stood man - on the other side stood all of the animals.
And that line began to open up into a great crevasse - and at the last moment
before it became unreachable, dog leapt over and stood by man. ~~Unknown

I Have Been Adopted!

Jack and Blinkin were returned to the rescue after being in the
same home for two years due to the divorce of their owners.
Lucky for the pair, Sue Crowle was on standby at the rescue to
meet them and offer them a home immediately. Sue's kindness
not only spared them the stress of losing their home for a
second time, but also allowed them to remain together.
Look for our pictures in the next newsletter.
I have been placed!
Thank you, Max
Letters to Editor
I loved reading all the stories of the Pei who have been adopted and seeing the pictures of them
with their new families! And of course I also loved the collage of Pei from the luncheon! Too
cute! Stacy Lindemuth
