Some of our rescue dogs in their new homes!
"Frank" a 10 year old dapple boy
was a stray at the shelter.  He
lucked out by winning a great
home with one of the veterinarians
who helps us with rescue.
"Cooper" (on the right), a 9 year
old longhair male went to be
Roberta's (on the left) new
companion.  It's clear in this
picture that they have grown very
close very quickly.
"Coco" used to be an outdoor dog
who had to hide from the family's
two huge other dogs, is now a
much loved companion.
When "Fritz's" owner passed away his owner's
family turned him in to rescue since no one was
able to take him.  At 10 years old he found a
great new home!
"Pumpkin" a wonderful 8 year old
girl ended up being a perfect
companion for a retired senior!

old Dachshund mix
rescued from death
row at a high kill

male was seized from a
breeding operation and
then rehomed after
being released from the
shelter by the courts.
"Melanie", a 3 year old came
with Tiny from the same
breeding mill.
"Priscilla" found a home
where she has other
dachshunds to play with and
keep her company.
"Mimi" is a 1 year old Dachshund
Chihuahua mix whose previous owner
could no longer care for her.  She
found a new home with another older
Dachshund to keep her company.
"Scrapper" found a wonderful new
home where he has another dog to play
with and an owner with plenty of time to
devote to him.
"Skippy" now "Pinky" was turned into rescue when
his owner went into a nursing home.  He is now in
a great new home where he can hike and go to
the dog park every day.
After being bounced from home to
home for most of her life, Schatzie at 9
years old, is finally in her forever
home!
