Allie
I just wanted to take the opportunity to let you know that the sweet girl I adopted from you is doing wonderfully well. She is a 2-year old collie/shepherd mix named Allie, and she has been such a pleasure. At first she had some transition issues, but she has turned out to be the perfect dog! I live in an apartment, so she has to spend most of the day by herself indoors, but she is completely housetrained and doesn't chew on anything. Also, she doesn't bark to disturb my neighbors and she does well when I have to work late. She's always there to greet me when I get home, though, and it's wonderful to have her to go home to in the evenings! She is so polite and well-mannered; I can't say enough good things about her. She has been a joy to me, and I am so glad I adopted her! I happened to see her picture, fell in love, and called about her the day before she was supposed to be put down, so it's almost as though we were meant for each other! I can't tell you how many compliments I've gotten on her. Thanks so much for everything!
Reggie
I just wanted to let you know that the adoption was a perfect match! Reggie is a playful cat that is the most lovable guy ever. He'll snuggle with me before I go to sleep and wakes me up when it's breakfast time. He doesn't seem to be afraid of other people nor dogs......just the best pet I could have asked for.
Dakota
This dog is amazing.
Polo
Polo, is doing great! We all love him and he is getting more sociable all the time.
Aiden
He is very bad, but I love him anyway. He's so smart, too smart! He was housebroken in just a
few days.
Kelly
Kelly is a total gem. We have a 5 year old daughter and Kelly is wonderful with her. She was totally house trained (even goes to the bathroom in the woods!!) and is extremely obedient - doesn't chew anything but her toys (don't know how she can tell the difference between her toys and my daughter's stuffed animals but she does), she stays off the furniture, and doesn't bark at other dogs.
Just wanted to let you know that she is now living comfortably with us in Shelton, CT. My husband has an office in our house and she spends her time contently in his office or playing out in our yard, which we have put in an invisible fence. Everyday she jumps in the car to bring my daughter to school and in the evenings I take her for a walk. She is a joy and we thank you for saving her and helping bring her into our lives!
More Success Stories
- Olivia & Ted
- Just wanted to let you know all is well with the Siamese mix kittens. We are calling them Olivia & Ted. I stopped for their vet check on the way home. They checked out just fine, our vet & staff really liked our new kittens.
Olivia & Ted have adjusted very quickly to having a 2 story house to run around, play, & hide in. We have "kitten proofed" the house so they won't knock off anything & get hurt. There have not been any potty accidents. Dana, our pointer, likes the kittens and they seem to like her, too. The kittens are very personable. They like to be held and cuddled and BOTH of them have super loud "kitty motors." You did a nice job of socializing them for us.
So, all is well! We thank you again for all your care & help so we could adopt these beauties! We wish you the best of luck with your move into the new building. You all are doing a great job there and it shows in the quality of animals you have. They are healthy & happy & well adjusted so they are ready to make good pets for people.
- Archie
- I adopted Archie. He is doing great. We love him so much!!!
- Sophie
- My grandpa and I went to the Etowah Valley Humane Society to look for a dog. After looking up and down the rows and into the cages for several minutes, we went back up front. We were about to leave when this shy, skittish white and brown dog came crawling from outside. She was so scared having only been brought in the previous afternoon. We told the lady that we found a puppy. She came and got her out and I held her for the first time. She dug her nails into my shoulder as to say please don't make me go back. I told my grandpa that she was the one that I wanted, so he went up to the counter and did all the paperwork. We named her Sophie. Sophie is now warming up in a loving home. Thank you so much for letting us adopt Sophie. She is the love our life. She is doing great and loves her new home. We can't thank you enough.
- Kayla
- Shes very happy and so are we. She and Koty (our Corgi) get along fabulously and they are the best of playmates. Shes almost house broken, and is beginning to learn some basic commands. When she wags her tail, its from the shoulders down! Thanks again for your help and all the wonderful work that you do.
- Parker
- Parker has taken to his new "pack" wonderfully. As you know, I adopted a 10 mos old golden retriever, Jeter, last year. I also have a Peek-a-Poo (9yrs), Luciano, and two cats ages 15 and 14 years, Suzy and Miss Charlotte. Parker has adopted Charlotte and she curls up next to him on my bed every night. He cleans her head and is so sweet and gentle with her. Parker has also taken a real shine to Jeter, the golden. My brother and I have been taking all 3 to a state park near my house evry night after supper. We hike the trails 1-2 hours. Parker just makes me laugh every day. His favorite words are "supper" and "park". Both words send him into his little jumping jig that cracks me up everytime. I am so in love with him. He is my shadow in the house and is happy with all his "stuffed things" and rawhides. Thank you all for making it possible for me to adopt Parker. He has added a wonderful new spark to my little pack.
- Georgia
- The trip back to FL was great. We kept the cat up front in her carrier to avoid any incidents , but both animals were calm the whole way home. Georgia adapted immediately to riding for long hours, was perfectly behaved in the motel, ate both packages of food at once, wanted to sleep in the bed, and tolerated the cat. She has already met one neighborhood dog , whom she didn't seem to like, but continues to try to befriend our cat. The cat is wary, and stares Georgia down if she gets too close. Georgia turns her head away with that " OK-I-don't-want-to-offend-you-just-tell-me-what-to-do-and-I'll-do-it" look so common to Labs. Right now she is sprawled on the tile floor resting from an exploration of the yard.
- Lucy
- She has captured the hearts of my family and friends. Lucy is a healthy and very playful puppy. She has fit in with our family very well. One of my cats aren't so sure about her yet, but they are getting there. Lucy sleeps with us at night and housebreaking (crate training) is going well. I just wanted to thank everyone for the wonderful jobs that you do and I love my little girl.
