Happy Tails!

We found a new home. Thank you for adopting!

Read some of our success stories posted as Happy Tails on Petfinder.com: Suzie, Ranger and Dudley!

Levi

Levi was rescued by Alley and her family in 2009. Here's what Alley has to say about Levi, one year later:

"Just over a year ago, we adopted this little guy from you. He had just arrived at your shelter, coming from California. He was underweight, had been sick, and was recovering from life on the street. Well, in the short year that he's been with us, he's turned into quite a handsome little man. He's perfect in every way and we can't imagine him not being a part of our family. He's gone swimming, hiking and snowshoeing, and has an extended pack of doggie friends. He gets along great with both our other dog and our cat. He loves playing fetch, and he's beginning to learn agility...He truly is the little dog that won our big dog hearts...Thank you for all the hard work you do to rescue these great animals and find their forever home."

Amber

Amber was rescued by Judi and her family in December of 2008. Here's what Judi has to say after their first year together:

"I'm not sure if you'll remember us but we live in Victoria BC and picked up Amber (formerly Curly Sue) from you on December 29th of last year so we have just celebrated our first year with her. Just wanted to share with you what an absolute treasure she is and how fortunate we feel to have her in our lives. Thank you for your part in saving her for us! We truly feel we were destined to be together...a match made in heaven."

Sibi

Sibi came to our rescue with a litter of puppies in February of 2009. After all of her puppies found their own homes, Sibi was able to find her own forever home. She was adopted by Cat in March of 2009. Here is what Cat had to say, one month later:

"I just wanted to let you know that we couldn't possibly love Sibi more! She is doing great and really loves her new home. She and our Westie have become great friends and she has really bonded with us. At first she wouldn't walk on a leash, but within the first two weeks she mastered that. She is very clever and figured out the dog door in about five seconds. She has gotten very comfortable riding in the car and we've taken her on some good adventures already. Thanks so much for rescuing this wonderful dog so that we could adopt her!"

Foxy

Precious (renamed Foxy) came into our rescue in Janaury of 2009, a beautiful 1-year old Pomeranian. She was adopted by Pam in February of 2009, as a companian for Pam's elderly mother. Here is what Pam's update later that month:

"My Mom is head over heels for "Foxy"! My Mom takes Foxy for 3 walks a day (she is EXCELLENT on a leash!). Not only is this good for Foxy, it's good for my MOM!! She has met soooo many new friends at the dog park (my Mom!). When I call my Mom, she has me say "hi" to Foxy on the phone! She still does not like toys or other dogs.......but, she LOVES my Mom! This is win/win situation. A friend of mine might be contacting you for another adoption......I'm spreading the word!"

Sadly, Foxy developed aggressive bladder cancer and passed on 7 months later, here is an update from Pam in September of 2009:

"It is with heavy heart to tell you, today is the day we will be putting Foxy (Precious) to sleep. My Mom adores her so much. It will be so hard on her. Her thyroid was affected, and then her kidneys started to fail. My Mom was giving her kidney dialysis every day at home to lengthen their time together. I am hoping Mom will allow another "baby" in her life to keep her company.........we'll see."

Although a very sad story, we know that Foxy was truly loved and cared for in her last few months, and hope that Foxy's short life also brought joy to Pam's mother. Rest in peace, Foxy.
