From pitiful to pampered in a matter of months. Rosa was rescued from a cruelty case in November. She was skin and bones. Despite everything, she showed she still had trust in humans and would try to crawl in your lap and curl up like a dog a quarter of her size!
Craig saw Rosa at one of our adoption events and convinced Lauriel they COULD foster a pit bull (they already have two at home). After a couple of weeks our foster coordinator called to remind the couple to bring Rosa to our next adoption event. They did us one better – they showed up and filled out the adoption paperwork for her themselves! Congratulations to Rosa for finding new parents who’ll treat her like she always deserved to be treated! Thank you for adopting!!!

Junior came our way when his owner dumped him and his “brother” Buford from their car then sped off. The dogs held no grudges so we tried not to too. Junior believes when one door closes (even if you’ve just been tossed out it) another one opens. He’s right since this happy lady, Lora, opened…
Cassie came to stay with Homeless Pets Foundation in December of 2010 as an owner surrender. She was so despondent not knowing why she had lost her owner after 7 years to end up alone & lonely in her cage. All the volunteers tried to cheer her up but nothing worked, after 6 months we were…
Some of you may remember Cashew, the pregnant pocket pittie (small pit bull) we rescued who had 5 adorable babies. Well, we slipped and didn’t get a photo when she was adopted so when she was brought in for a check-up, we made sure to take a few. She is SO happy with her new…
This couple had been missing their boxer who died 2 years ago and got excited when they saw Jethro up for adoption at one of our events last weekend. Jethro is homeless no more! Congrats and thank you for adopting!
