My husband and I started to volunteer with Homeless Pets Foundation last fall. After working a couple adoptions, we noticed a senior dog, Waffle, who did not receive much attention from perspective adopters. Waffle was the victim of a hoarding case and, at 14 years old, had been at the shelter for six months. When others overlooked his kind smile and desire for love, my husband and I saw that he needed us as much as we needed him. We gave him a good bath, bought some new toys and beds for him, and we brought him home. He has become the best of friends with his two-year-old brother, a lab retriever. They play all the time. I believe our young dog brings out the younger dog in Waffle. Twenty-five years ago, I was born… 11 years later Waffle was born; it took us 14 years to unite, but we finally found each other. It took Waffle 14 years to find his forever family and we’re going to give him the best of love to ensure he forgets the trials life brought him. He’s been a joy to my life and every morning when I wake up, I enjoy hugging him each and every time. Our family is finally complete! -Leslie Brown
Dr. Phil Good, owner of Town & Country Veterinary Clinic, received his Bachelor of Science with highest honors in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech in 2006. 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.
Three more of Paisley’s puppies have flown the coop! Clockwise: Panda went to a home where he’ll be best buddies with a Great Dane and hang out with his new dad who’s training to be a police officer. Mr. Keating bonded with his puppy even before he met or saw him! His daughter-in-law and son…
Here’s another set of siblings who’ll get to watch each other grow up. Vienna and Vivianne were spotted at Petsmart last weekend and this family came back for them yesterday. Hurray! Two less homeless pets! Thank you.
Someone finally saw Farrah for what she is — a highly adoptable dog stuck in a shelter for no good reason. Thank you so much for giving her a home (and for being repeat adopters from us). We know you will love her as much as we do!
Luke has left the building! Luke (on right) joins a family with two other canine playmates and doting parents! They looked at a number of dogs at local shelters and rescue groups and Luke won their hearts. Understandable. Congratulations to the new family and thank you for adopting!
