Kasey Momma
Adopted by Jeanne Ayotte & Family.

Mina
Adopted by Kelle Dorsch.
" I just wanted to give you an update on the status of one of your dogs that was adopted about a year and a half ago.My mother and I took my 2 daughters to the PetSmart in Oveido on Red Bug Lake Road on December 10th or 11th of 2007. My dog of 10 years had passed in August and I was waiting until I could work at home to adopt another dog. We looked tirelessly on the Petfinder website until we finally settled on her, that is Mina. You had her classified as a tan Shepherd mix. She was still so little and cute. My mother also adopted a black Lab that day and we drove all the way back to Palm Bay. Both puppies slept the entire ride. I just wanted to let you know how good of a dog Mina has turned out to be and boy, does she have some big ears! She weighs about 52 lbs now at age 1 1/2. She has grown into her ears and is perfectly proportioned. She loves kids and other dogs. Every night, she sleeps at the bottom of my bed curled up in a little ball giving one long sigh that almost sounds like a cow's moo before finally falling asleep.. She does have a lot of feline tendencies for a dog. She likes to get on the back of the couch and sleep, literally, on the back of the couch. She hops on top of our spa like a cat and stretches like a cat sometimes, but she is definitely all dog. I hope this little note will let you know what a service you are providing for not only the dogs, but for the people who adopt them as well. I would never want her to be gone from my family. "

Emme
Adopted by the Hull Family.

Sammie
Adopted by Aubrey & Chris.
" Sammie is doing great. She is an excellent dog. She knows 'come' and 'sit' now with no problem (unless she is super excited over something and then she totally forgets we exist but we are working on that). Normal puppy stuff, couldn’t ask for a better puppy. She is already 25lb so I'm thinking she definitely took on more of the lab :) Everyone that sees her assumes she is full lab until they see the funny colored lighter brown patches on her. I will see if I have some current pics and attach them just so you can see how happy she (and we) are."

Ryan & Suki
Adopted by Amanda.

Emmie & Booster

Adopted by the Hess Family.
"Last November we adopted Booster (black and white pointer) and in February Emerald.They are best buddies so it only seems suitable that I send a photo that has them doing just that, being best buddies.Booster is an amazing goofball. He's great with our other two tiny dogs. We take him camping with us and he loves it. Emerald is a beautiful perfect little puppy too. Booster and Emmie are like two peas in a pod. Emerald was the brain and Booster was the brawn. I attached a photo of them being their adorable little selves :-)"

Freckles & Rex
Adopted by the Leger Family.

Moose
Adopted by Lori Paticelli and Family.
"We just wanted to write and tell you we are thrilled and in love with him. He has such a personality and very very active now that he is used to the house. It was funny as on Saturday we have wood and tile floors that he wasn't use to so he would not walk but slide across. We woke up Sunday and he was a maniac running around! He is such a lover. He is a fast learner and already knows to sit or get in his newly claimed bean bag when my husband says so, he loves my husband and son. He has won everyone in the house over - in fact i slept in the guest room so my husband, son and him could all sleep together in the king size bed. We have 1 1/2 acres in our backyard and it is all fenced in. Today my son and husband let him off the leash and he ran for an hour with them. He loves to fetch the tennis ball and sit under the trees. When all the play time was done, he went inside and got in his crate and passed out. Thanks so much for your adoption agency and all your hard work."

Adelaide
Adopted by Wendy Johnson.

Swami
Adopted by George Arnold

Thought you would like this photo of Honey.....the kids have renamed her Swami. She has really taken to us and the other Aussie, and loves to explore. She loves to eat and has already gotten bigger. The kids love her. It is unbelievable, but she is basically housebroken...only one accident..and it was because we ignored the signs...not her fault. We are introducing her to our Vet tomorrow so that he can get her on a schedule for whatever she needs. I can't tell you enough how happy we are with her.... and can't thank you enough for all your help. I will send more pictures in a few weeks. Kindest regards, George Arnold.

Bailey
Adopted by the Vernachio Family.

Hope
Adopted by Rhonda Hanna.

We just love our little girl, she is a trip. Hope has been a great addition to the family although she has destroyed my dining room chairs, ate a hole in the back of our loveseat and I sure can't keep a rug of any kind in the house. Most of this was done a weekend away when my step son was at the house watching the dogs. I blame him more then her. She is such a blessing... We lost one of our older dogs last month, he was a rescue that we had for almost 9 years. Missing him everyday that goes by, she is such a joy!!!!!! And the timing of getting Hope was just perfect. I have attached a few new photo's. She is a little timid around anything new so we are starting doggie kindergarten Aug 22nd. She has so much energy that we decided to enroll her in several series of classes. She will do Basic Obedience class, then canine good citizen, by then she should be a year old and we are going to do Therapy classes. Thank you so much for what you do.

Hailee
Adopted by Stuart.

Holly
Adopted by Beth Hall and Family.

Hi there! Just wanted to let you know how happy we are with our new puppy and how grateful we are for your hard work and dedication. We lost our golden retriever of 7 years about 2 1/2 months ago, and at that time I thought we might never have another dog, at least for several years. But my heart melted and I thought it wouldn't hurt to check out Petfinders. What a 'mistake' that was! You had so many sweet looking, heart melting little faces on there. We drove from the Melbourne area (Indian Harbour Beach) to the Oviedo Petsmart to find a puppy who might ease the aching in our hearts and the missing space in our family. Our older son, age 8, had no idea we were going...didn't want to risk another pain. We found Holly and even though we thought her online persona was cute, we didn't realize how she would jump into our lives with such affection. At home, our older son was very excited, and a little overwhelmed. He'd been wanting a puppy so badly, and still cries sometimes for our lost dog. He has embraced her so deeply, and is so in love with her and I believe our loss has taught him a much deeper appreciation which he shows with his eyes when he looks at her. She is such a perfect fit with all of us (although the cats and the 2 year old are taking a little longer to realize it...but they are coming along ;) ). I can't believe how little effort it is taking to 'housetrain' her, only 2 mistakes so far and those are simply b/c we didn’t' take her out soon enough. She is sweet, smart, and affectionate and I'm amazed with her on a daily basis. Thank you so much. Beth Hall and family.
