Happy Tails

Digg Digg

Adopting Hooch brought so much happiness into my life. Having a dog makes a house a home. There’s no greater feeling than coming home from work and being greeted by Hooch with a full circle tail wag. Hooch loves to cuddle and play, and makes friends with everyone who walks through the door. He wakes me up in the morning with a cold, wet nose, and let me tell you – there’s no better way to start the day.

Thanks,

Clare

CHRISTMAS 2011: “I just thought I would forward you a picture of Moose that we took on Christmas day while he was waitin’ for Santa What a wonderful Christmas present…….the gift of Moose! He has really filled a void in our hearts, enriched our lives and we love him so much! ”

The story of Dudley Montgomery Worcestershire Wood the 3rd

2010 was a rough year for me as I lost both of my dogs. One to gastric torsion and one to general old age. In early 2011 I started getting e-mails from someone pestering me about adopting another dog. That got me looking at Petfinder where I found Dudley. Turns out that same someone’s rescue organization had him. We fell in love with his pictures and the video was too much to resist. So after some pestering of my own we took him home.

He’s a very funny dog. You wake up and he’s peering over the side of the bed. I keep the treats in another room and when he thinks he deserves one he stands with his nose against the door or the cabinet they are in. He’s quite talkative and barks when he’s very happy or not very happy. And when he has an itch he runs up and down the side of the bed or couch rubbing up against it, occasionally falling over on the hardwood floor when he loses his footing. He’s got a huge personality and has been great fun.

“Blueberry is doing GREAT! She’s put on quite a few pounds and she’s looking much better. She gets along great with the cats, although the cats are still
amazed by the gigantic creature that now resides in the home

She listens so well – I’m just amazed at what a wonderful dog she is. We are so happy to have her as a member of our family!” -The Belloli Family

“Here’s my boy, Hooper! I lost my buddy Barley 4 months ago and during that time I happened to come across Hooper on Voiceless-mi. There was this little guy named Hooper that stole my heart. He has been the greatest joy and has helped heal my broken heart over losing Barley. Thank you Voiceless! ”

No, thank YOU Blendena for giving Hooper such a wonderful and loving home!

In February of 2010, we pulled two very sweet beagles from Gratiot

County Animal Control just in time to save them from the Class B research dealer. Sadly, tests and xrays showed they both had advanced stage heartworm disease. Poor little Eddie’s heart was so engorged with the deadly worms, it was twice it’s normal size. They were both very sick little guys.

With GENEROUS donations, we were able to provide Chuck and Eddie with the necessary heartworm treatment over a period of 2-3 months. During that time, they progressively started feeling better as you will see in the accompanying video! First, they had the horrible luck of landing in a shelter that gives unclaimed pets to research dealers then, diagnosed with advanced heartworm disease. They beat the odds with your help!

Finally, Chuck and Eddie were adopted *TOGETHER* by a wonderful man, Nick, who met them at one of our Petco events. It was a love connection for sure! Chuck and Eddie are now healthy, happy and living the good life thanks to the help of some very caring and generous benefactors.

Cane originally came from a shelter in Michigan that sold to research. Cane was pulled out by Voiceless-MI to help him find a new life. And what a life he found with Suzanne, his new owner! Here is a picture of Suzanne and Cane at his first Rally obedience trial.

Suzanne said “My goal going in was really to just have Cane behave nicely during the whole show experience (which he exceeded my expectations!). I had hopes of qualifying, but I was fully prepared to consider my entry fee a donation to the club hosting the show. As I said, just being there was my main goal. Well – we qualified and we earned 4th place in the class and received a nice fourth place ribbon and a dog toy! It is just the early, beginning levels, but I was very proud of our very first time going out.”

Congratulations to Suzanne and Cane!!!!!
