Just wanted to let all who helped in the adoption of Hester (Abby now) that she is doing very well! She has been such great company for me! My husband and I love her so much and all of her crazy puppy ways. Thanks to you guys for our newest addition to the family- Abby!

I just wanted to let you know things are going great with Daisey. She has fit into our family great. She is so full of energy, my girls just love playing with her. She wasn't very affectionate at first but now she love to give kisses. I can tell she was an outside dog, or she loves being outside. We are actually looking to move and we are only searching for houses with fenced yards. She has adjusted to being inside well. she only had two accidents in the house, she is completely house trained she will scratch on the door when she wants to go out. We are truly happy with her and we thank-you for letting her become part of our family. I included a picture of her and Deuce--they are the best of pals.

June 11, 2005, I drove from Brooklyn, New York to Silva, North Carolina to meet our baby Sketch. He is an angel from heaven. We hug and kiss him all the time. It was my granddaughter, age four, who saw him on the computer and had to have him. She was willing to have me go to get him instead of attending her birthday party that weekend. She has a speech deficit, but I must say since Sketch came into her life her speech has improved so much where she is using full sentences. He is her buddy and they adore each other. Thank you so much for allowing us to have Sketch!

"I am wriiting this letter to you to let you know that we adopted a dog from ARF about three years ago. Her name was Blanche (Now Lady). She was one that you had fostered. She was a blonde Beagle/Lab Mix. Lady rode alway to her home in Durham, where she is currently living. Lady has brought so much joy to this household. She has four cat friends and one new dog friend (adopted from APS) She has been through two training classes since we have adopted her. Like a typical Beagle, she can not be trusted off the leash. She snuggles up every night and comforts you at any time. I hope to send you a picture soon. Plaese give us the address where we can send a donation. Thank You So Much For Saving Her!!!!!!"
- The Roach Family

In August I saw a picture on your website a puppy called Brunhilde. I knew she was mine from the moment I saw her. You see I had just lost my own jack russell, Jack to an accident and I was lonely. Yes with 4 teen agers and a husband I was lonely. So I called and my husband and one of my sons drove 2 1/2 hours to meet a lovely woman who had taken such special care of this little girl. The adoption fee was a pittance compared to the joy we received. We renamed her Bella because she is beautiful. She is the joy of our lives. She is called the baby and can reduce the toughest teen to baby talk and cooing with her little antics. She loves my old tom cat and our elderly lab. She is just wonderful in every way. She is a big 8 pounds and very active.

I know that you don't always know what happens to your charges once they leave your home. You send them off with a kiss and a prayer. I wanted you to know that you not only saved a little puppy but answered my prayer. She is loved cherished and adored as she should be. As she sleeps in my lap I wanted to thank you for your care and rescue of our baby until we could get to her. Sincerely, Debbie Bruster Cornelia, Ga.
