Eloy
...Eloy is doing great! He is maneuvering around on the hardwood floors better(not slipping anymore) and I think he has realized that he can relax because this is a permanent home for him. He is a happy dog and loves to run in the park, he listens well. He is great to cuddle with...., I just love to have naps with him. He gives kisses and loves to get his nose kissed. He also loves toys and to stretch out on his lounge chair. ...

|
|
Samantha
Samantha has been really really good. She is totally in love with me (still a little strange with adults, even Tal, my boyfriend), but she is great with children and other dogs now!!! I take her to the dog run almost everyday so she is getting plenty of exercise and socialization. On the street, we always get compliments, especially when she shows off her kid-friendly skills to parents. People always comment on her ears, her disproportionally large paws, and her smile (yes, she does smile!). She is really quite good (and quirky) and we couldn't be happier...

George
"So....I was roaming around the Bronx, minding my own business, as happy as a dog can be eating out of garbage pails (which is pretty happy, mind you). But -- one day I was swooped up by an angel who promised to find me a HOME! I never thought I could be so lucky. It was comfortable, but confusing for a few weeks...and then along came Gerry, my new mom. Well, I'll tell you something -- comfort is great -- but LOVE! That's a whole different story!"....
|
|
Gia

What a great dog she is."...

As well he should, he had a future that was opening wide before him. Buddy is now a happy, healthy and sweet boy. He is loved by his new family, spending his summer weekends at the beach.

Now she has a new home with a new family and enough love to keep her warm throughout the coldest winters.
