Our Special Needs Adoption Stories

UPDATE on Annie: Annie was transferred to a Rolling Dog Ranch Rescue group where it was found that Annie had a broken leg which was the reason that she was not able to use her leg. Annie is now a four legged dog who will be adopted soon. Our thanks to the Rolling Dog Ranch for all of their work with rescue animals!

Annie is spay and up to date with all shots and rabies shot.


   

UPDATE on Susie: Susie was adopted by a special family that took an elderly dog into their loving arms. Susie will be well loved by the children and parents of this family. They are one in a million! Congratulations to Susie and her new family!

[20050103] Susie is a Rough Coated Collie, rust, brown, black, white, Female, 8 years

Susie is a special needs dog. Susie's owner passed away last week and his relatives do not want to keep Susie. Susie is a loving dog who laid beside her master until he was taken from her. She does not do well around other dogs. Susie needs to be the only dog in the house. She is very loyal and walks well on leash. Susie has some hip problems that will have to be addressed. She is current on all of her shots and rabies. Please think about giving Susie a loving home that she deserves.

 
 
     
 
We have completed the transport of Bear, a nine year old Norwegian Elkhound. He has been adopted to the Jelka Arnesen Elkhound Retirement Resort. Bear will have a permanent home where he will be loved and cared for until he crosses the Rainbow Bridge.

Bear was transported in July 2005 and adopted by the Jelka Arnesen Elkhound Retirement Resort. Here is our latest report:

Bear is doing GREAT. He has fit in so well playing with my other 15 dogs. I love this guy! Bear is a wonderful addition to my family. He sleeps beside my bed on rug. The vet visit showed that Bear has an enlarged prostate. Bear eats a special diet of Cannidae dry with raw beef. He wears a collar with tags and is microchipped, so that he is able to find his way home. I will be happy to send you pics. Just let me get a minute to do it. And...I will send photos, I promise. Just not today. Heheheheh.. Lora
