This couple did everything right. They fell for Joker online but didn’t let that stop them from considering all the factors of adopting him first. They scheduled a meet and greet to get to know him. They brought their other adopted dog, Ella, to meet Joker to see if Ella also gave him the stamp of approval. They consulted Ella’s trainer to make sure Joker and Ella seemed compatible and a good fit. THEN they completed the application, were approved (of course!) and took home their new big baby!
Joker is now “Frankie” (after Sinatra, ol’ blue eyes) and is right where he should have been all along! Congrats and thank you so much for taking adoption seriously! Best wishes to the whole family!

Phil finally came to his senses, realizing he’d much rather work with animals than in a chemical plant. Dr. Good obtained his doctorate in veterinary medicine from UGA in 2011.

We did and Butch attended adoption events and impressed everyone with his good looks and behavior but nobody applied for him. Armando, visiting from…
