"Eli" was a happy pitbull puppy, about 8-months old, that was surrendered to the animal shelter on June 3, 2020. At first, the lady said he was a stray dog they had found. But another woman out in the car said he belonged to her brother. I can't figure out why so many people don't tell the full story when surrendering their pets. Perhaps it is to avoid some guilt or accountability. But it really hampers the shelter's efforts to re-home the animals when all the information about a pet isn't given at intake.  "Eli" proved to be a sweet pup and it showed in his video. He was adopted the day after being surrendered!

They say every dog has his day, and Murry finally got his! Murry was picked up stray on May 22, 2020. He was already neutered, but no owner ever came looking for him. Things were looking bleak because Murry needed to go to a home without other pets, and that severely limits things. But he finally found a match when a couple spotted his post in the internet and came to meet him. They didn't have any other pets at home, so Murry would have their undivided attention! He was adopted on June 1, 2020.

"Blaze" was a beautiful, young German Shepherd puppy that came into the animal shelter as a stray on May 28, 2020. I knew she would be popular, but wasn't prepared for the 30 adoption applications that were submitted in just a few days. And I was again shocked that no owner came forward to claim her. She made one lucky family very happy when she was adopted into their home on June 1, 2020
