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.
We wanted to provide your team an update on Kiki (formerly known as Oreo). She is an amazing, friendly dog. She LOVES playing with other dogs at the dog park, hiking, and hanging out with family. She is gentle and everyone thinks she’s so cute! We are hoping to make it out to the lake…
Sebastian is cuddly, lovable, friendly, laid back and likes other dogs. He’s not a puppy and he has heartworms — those are the only reasons we can think of for his waiting around since June for a home. His wait is over. This sweet couple saw the good in Sebastian, didn’t mind giving him a…
Leeloo got adopted! And she gets to be big sister to her new dachshund siblings too. We’re so happy for this sweet gal! Thank you for giving Leeloo the home she deserves!
We love repeat adopters! It was great to see Janet and her husband David come back through our doors. This time they left with Carol, the extremely loving terrier mix who came to our shelter pregnant (her 5 pups have been adopted), with heartworms and chronic dry eyes. Now Carol will have no worries and…
Oh Suzie Q. Oh Suzie Q! Say you’ll be mine, all the time, Suzie Q. (What, you don’t know that song?) Suzie Q ALMOST didn’t selected to go to Petsmart adoptions a couple of weeks ago. And this couple ALMOST walked by without noticing her. But she did and they didn’t, and now she’s no…
