Passion adopted new parents!
We pulled Passion from an animal control facility. She had 8 puppies soon after. She’s been a great mother and the pups are weaned and adoptable now but she won’t have to stick around and watch them leave because, in a rare turn of events, mom got adopted first!
Thanks so much for picking sweet and shy Passion!

We rescued Camille in February from an animal control facility. She’d just had puppies. We saw the worker there grab a metal rabies pole and drag Camille out by the neck. Ugh! We were so sad to see this sweet little mama treated that way. Camille sat on our volunteer’s lap, traumatized on the way…
A school teacher dad, stay-at-home-and-spoil-puppy Mom and three ballplayer brothers are just what the doctor ordered to keep puppy Win trained, babied and active!
