What's New

P.E.T. is not just for our pets!  Positive Energy Touch and all it's healing properties has come to Yerington by way of Happy Tales.

We help people feel happy, look good and live well with our new full service health and wellness center. 

This is an upscale, tranquil addition to Happy Tales Resort.  From the water features to the wall murals, you must see it to fully experience it.  The idea stemmed from extending our pampering services to include the "Moms & Dads" of our furry friends.

Some of the delights at the people's spa are;  Massage, European Facial, Hand & Foot Treatments, Body Waxing, Scrubs & Wraps, Sauna, Shower & Spray Tan Booth.

Watch for our living ionized water on tap, just for you.  This is life giving alkaline water that you can drink at the wellness center or take home with you.

Update

 September 30, 2008

Our girl Ellie, aka Noel; (one of 145 dogs from Gabbs, NV) lived in the Tippets home for seven months.  She had a new pack consisting of two Schnauzers, an English Setter with a new litter of puppies (one of the puppies was also a rescue- see "another amazing story"),  three cats, two goats and a horse. 

Everything in the world was full of color and activity, far outside of Ellie's comfort.  She had to adjust to being inside, to human voice and touch.  She learned how to walk on a leash, ride in a car, socialize with the family, play and run, ask to go outside and to come when I whistled.  She even decided that she could do herding work with the goats!

I took Ellie everywhere with me.  She dragged a long leash around for months and at times I literally had her tied to my waist.  I came to love Ellie and had tears of joy and pride as I watched her personality blossom as her confidence grew.

She graduated from ferral to friend.  When she started coming up and nudging me for attention,  I knew it was time for her to have her special forever home.

Ellie has gone on to live at Cirrus Ranch.  Owner and trainer, Robin Wenham works full time in canine rescue and rehabilitation.  Ellie has joined his pack to help rehab and train other dogs.  And she gets to run on the beach...what a special girl!
