We love our volunteers and adopters. So when a couple who volunteers with us adopted from us, we were over the moon!
Volunteers Jackie and Kenny help us wrangle, exercise and showcase our dogs at mobile adoption events. When you’re hands on with the dogs on a regular basis you get to know them well. Sometimes you can’t stop thinking about them and that’s what happened when Kenny and Jackie met Cledus. Cledus is a big baby who demands lots of attention. Shelter life is …hard for all animals but Jackie and Kenny felt especially bad when they had to send Cledus back to his cage at the end of the day.
Thanks to them, they found room in their home and hearts for one more dog and Cledus is now getting all the babying he wants!
Jackie sent pictures and this update:
“The first time I met Cledus ( now Chip) while volunteering, there was an instant connection. I know it sounds weird, but after spending time with him and training him I felt like he chose me, honestly. After volunteering week after week I just fell in love with him. He’s such a good boy, and learns very quickly!! His favorite things to do are hike trails and be picked up! lol ”

Chrome is home! Ryan, a lacrosse player and coach, came all the way from Savannah to adopt this cutie. We think they make a good duo and wish them a happy life together! Thanks for adopting!
And BonBon makes three! This is the first dog for these two as a couple and they were so happy to take BonBon home. BonBon now goes by Lucy and is doing great with her new family. Thank you for adopting!
A year ago we celebrated the adoption of Lily, who’d been waiting a year for someone to want her. Since she was people-focused and calm, she’d just sit there and look into your face and many potential adopters were intimidated (though Lily was usually thinking, “Do you have a cookie?”) Lily turned out to be…
Sebastian is cuddly, lovable, friendly, laid back and likes other dogs. He’s not a puppy and he has heartworms — those are the only reasons we can think of for his waiting around since June for a home. His wait is over. This sweet couple saw the good in Sebastian, didn’t mind giving him a…
