Chance Miles looks like he’s ready for his day at the beach -- or lounging by the pool. He’s got his life preserver and his towel. Oops... not really that much fun for the poor boy. He’s fighting a hot spot. We hope you get healed up quickly because swimming weather is coming! Two years ago you guys helped me to adopt Chuck. He was Pearson at the time but he felt like a Chuck when I met him and he’s been Chuck to his friends ever since. Today is our “gotcha” day and I wanted to reach out and let you all know how much your efforts are appreciated. Put as simply as I can, Chuck is the best part of my life. And it is not close. We are a perfect match and I love him dearly. I am so grateful that your team brought us together. I remember being a little frustrated by the amount of time it was taking but was ready to wait for the right dog to find me and I am so glad I found the patience. I couldn’t have built a more perfect dog for me in a lab. You guys offered for me to foster him because he was a troublemaker with other dogs and didn’t have a suitable home for him. I was offered the chance to foster and then have first dibs on adopting. As soon as I met him I knew we were a perfect match. I’ll be making a donation to your organization in his name. Cannot possibly thank you enough for bringing us together. –Tommy Danner

Onyx has settled in so well to his forever family. Look how handsome he is. He has a loving mom and dad and a dog sibling to keep him healthy and happy. We love happy endings / restarts! Teddy Kastner is Not spoiled! He is appropriately well-loved! He is such a sweetheart, if you walk into a room and don’t talk to him, he sure lets you know. Teddy is former Turkey dog, Pati, and he came to the US in May 2021 and was adopted by his foster family in June.
