We were concerned when 9 year old Piper was surrendered into our program. Older pets have a difficult time adjusting to shelter life and often wait a while to be adopted. Fate played a good hand though!
At a Petsmart adoption event Piper caught the eye of a woman with three Yorkies and a sympathetic heart. The Yorkies gave their paw stamp of approval on adding gentle Piper to their pack and the deal was done.
Thank you for being Piper’s rescue angel! Best wishes to the new family!
