Asher has been Adopted!

Asher was actually adopted a couple of months ago. We were waiting for his new family to give us a thumbs up on his adoption. After many wonderful updates, they sent this picture and said to post Asher as adopted. His new family said he is "home".

Update from Asher's new family:

Volunteering at the Rescue was one of the better decisions I made for 2020. I met my adoptee (Asher – 3yr) on the first day of volunteering and, any free moment, I filled in spending a little time getting to know Asher.

After 4 months of deliberating, I decided Asher would have a new home as long as he works well with my 3-year-old. He’s doing phenomenally! Now at the point where there are no accidents in the house (I do not kennel), his anxiety is way down, and his overall obedience has improved drastically. There are some minute things to work on, but he has turned out such a great addition to my family.

Adopting is difficult in general but adopting a dog that has no written history other than his time at the rescue was semi daunting to me as I have experience working with abused and sheltered dogs. It took 2 months for Asher to become accommodated to the house rules and responsibilities.

I urge everyone to take multiple trips to interact before adopting your choice. Play with them, feed them, or if they are unsocialized, sit in their pen with them for an hour or 2 without trying to call them over. I think a very big part to Asher’s transition was that he and I had interacted on more than 7 occasions.

If you have adopted and are looking for advice or guidance on the transition period, please feel free to reach out. The rescue has my email and can get that to you.

Again, adopting Asher, and the experience that went with it was the best choice of 2020.

Update on Max

Max's new family has renamed him Cubby. This is a picture of Cubby in his new home.

This picture was taken the first week he was in his new home. 

"When he's sleeping and something wakes him up, I'll pet his head and he falls back asleep. It's so sweet."

His new family is keeping in touch with us. They say he is doing amazingly well and promise to send his socialization story for us to publish on our blog soon.

A new home for the holidays!!

Snowball was adopted today. 12-6-18

Snowball's new adopter is a former vet tech and has had experience with adopting an un-socialized dog.

She promises to keep us up to date on Snowball's progress. 

To start the day Snowball went to the vet to get her shots updated, heart worm meds etc. She was afraid but did very well. She never growled at the vet techs and was basically very good. Very scared but very good. 

Snowball went straight from the vet to her new home. She now has a new name, Martha Stewart, a new mommy and a new dog brother, Fletcher. 

We are happy for Martha and this new chapter of her life!

Background: Martha Stewart, formally known as Snowball, and her siblings were pulled from the Fort Worth Animal Shelter. They were on the euthanasia list because they were lacking in human socialization. Originally there were 6 siblings. One was adopted while they were at the shelter. The other 5 eventually went on the euthanasia list. 

We are not sure of their story but feel maybe they were an unwanted litter just left on their own in the back yard.
