Emma
Thank you so much for her. We just love her. She is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.
Sammi
Just a note of thanks for a beautiful creature. The Gordon Setter (?) I adopted from you has filled a void in a number of lives.
As I told you when I took her home, we lost our former family friend, to pancreatic cancer, after 17 plus years of faithful companionship. Our whole family said there could be no replacement. After losing her, our home felt empty and somewhat cold.
Along comes "Sammi" (short for Samantha). I am willing to bet, you never saw her tail up and wagging. It took us a couple of adventures and a couple of weeks to bring her out of her shyness. Now, she has definitely adopted all of us.
Not only is she my loyal friend, but that of my daughter-in-law and my granddaughter, Katie, who hugs and kisses Sammi continually. By the way, the tail stays up and wagging nowadays.
Thank you all for your trust placed in me and my family to provide a home for a canine who is more gentle and kind than any dog I have ever seen. It is an honor to Be Sammi's "Daddy".
Oreo & Molly
Here is a shot of our precious babys-"Oreo and Molly".They are the light of our lives and we are so pleased that you helped us with their adoption. We took them with us on a trip to Natchez, Mississippi a couple of weeks ago and they had a great time. Thank you again.
Que & Quay
Abbey
We are in obedience class and we are both learning a lot. Thank you for bringing her into our lives.
Blessing & Taco
I wanted to let you both know that the dogs are getting along so well! Blessing had a clean bill of health at the Vet just like Taco's first visit. Both dogs behave great when they go see Dr. Shell.
Blessing is in charge but treats Taco with love. They are always together.
Thank you for treating them so well before we adopted them. We love them so much!
Snickers
Bella
Thanks! She is a very nice dog that we love very much!
Roxy
A few weeks ago, I had adopted my dog Roxy. Shes doing great! Growing up so fast! I greatly appreciate your help & assistance!
Annie
Willow
Willow is doing wonderful in our family.
She's such a great addition to the family. In fact,
we're considering adopting another one so she'll have
a friend to play with.
Minerva
Here's Minerva at adoption:

After 9 months, and lots of love and care, she has grown into a
large, spoiled house cat... who actually owns us!
Thanks again for making us so happy, we love her to pieces! I
will be contacting you again in a few months to adopt a
companion for Minerva!

- Marley
- Just wanted to let you know that our new boy, Marley, is getting along beautifully! He is a wonderful dog with the typical good-natured collie disposition. Our other boys have welcomed him very nicely, and they are all getting along great!
Thank you so much for helping us add this wonderful new member to our family! We appreciate all that you do.
- Molly, Bandit & Coco
- We just wanted to thank you for the three wonderful additions to our family that we have gotten from you. Over the past few years we have adopted three wonderful little dogs...Molly-the Queen Bee, Bandit-who thinks he is a antelope the way he leaps, and Coco...who looks like a miniature lab. They are very loved and and are very close to each other as well as all of our family. What a wonderful blessing they are to us.
- Buddy
- Thank you again for letting me adopt M-1 Boston Terrier, whom I named "Buddy". He is doing great!!! He already feels comfortable in my home, sleeps on the blanket on the sofa in the living room, and loves to eat IAMS canned food and biscuits. Buddy plays with my dogs, especially with my Boston Terrier, Hector. He also gets along with cats.
- Annie
- She was so scared when I brought her home. She had an upper respiratory infection and runny eyes with a nasty cough. She is almost finished with her antibiotics and in two weeks she will be spayed. She is a gentle dog and so smart. She is completely house trained and seems to like my two cats. I took her to petsmart last week and she loves all the attention. I would imagine that it is always nice to get good news. I just cannot for the life of me imagine someone being mean to this dog. She was so afraid of the leash when I first got her. I guess someone kept her tied up all the time. At night she sits on the floor by the sofa chewing on her bone and I know she is content with her new home.
- Barbie
- Just a note to say Thanks and Barbie is doing well! She loves my sister and
I can't tear the two of them apart!! :-) She hasn't tried to escape at all.
She has done well since her heartworm shot and we were happy to find out that she
didn't have any baby heartworms!!!! Yay!!
Thanks so much for bringing her into my life.
- Gus
- Our puppy is doing great! We named him Gus. He has been microchipped and check out by the vet. They don't do the neutering on post so will will go off the post for that. Our other dog Winston loves him but thinks he sleeps to much when he wants to play. They get along really well and share their toys. He loves to play out in the grass so we are in the process of getting a fence built. We are vey happy with him and he loves his new family!
- Candy
- Thank you for placing this lovely, lively girl with us. When she arrived
home, we all took her out in the back yard and she raced all over the
place! She tore around the yard constantly for almost three hours! Her
tail was wagging all the time, she'd stop for a split second for a bit of
attention, then race off running in circles again. Our nine year-old
tossed the ball for her, she'd run and pick it up, then run all over the
place with the ball in her mouth. She thoroughly enjoys being able to run,
run, run!! She is also very loving and happy to be with us.
We put her in her crate at 10:30 last night, expecting her to wake up at 2
or 3 in the morning, but she surprised us and didn't wake up to go out
until 5:00 a.m. She ran outside, did her business, and went back into her
crate until about 6:30.. Then it was getting light out and she obviously
decided it was time for the household to be awake and playing with her!!
She is delightful. A ball of energy that will require some focusing and
training, but we think she'll make an excellent addition to our family.
Our son says she would make a great agility dog.. so we might
investigate how he'd go about training her for agility.. She certainly has
the energy and speed for it!! He also said, "I never thought a puppy would
have more energy than I do!"
Thank you so much for choosing us!
