Sally - This doe-eyed beauty was abandoned behind a house and found shivering and emaciated. She was rescued by a sweet man named Michael, who was referred to us. Sally was also quite popular, and found her forever home with a young woman named Maggie. Thanks, Maggie!


Pierre the Schipperke mix was a cruelty case rescue – he was found emaciated at an abandoned house along with a dog that had already died. He had to undergo heartworm treatment before he was available for adoption. Emily here had room in her life for a second dog, a playmate for her Pomeranian. Thanks, Emily, for adopting Pierre!
