Adoptions

Cassie, a
attractive b/m red, was found tied to the gate at the Thompson, CT
shelter one cold December morning along with her companion Nathan (see
below). After a prolonged period of fostering and rehab with Robin Conway
of Vermont, Cassie was adopted by Christopher & Nancy Sciotti in New York. |

Jody is a petite 5 year old
dark blue brindle with "love me" eyes. Jody's story is similar
to Digger's below. After being turned over to rescue because of illness in the
family, Jody was placed with a family in NYC. Unfortunately, she also
experienced separation anxiety and her howling did not make for good relations
with the neighbors in her apartment building. Providentially, the very
week we were planning Jody's return, we got a call from the Monnette's of CT who
were looking for a 5 year old female. They had recently lost
their female, Callie, and their male, Jake, was mourning. Jody paid a
visit, Jake was instantly smitten and Jody moved in right on the spot. |

Digger and his roommate
, Molly, were turned in by
their owner for the usual reasons (too busy, no time, divorce, etc, etc,
etc). After being fostered by Robin Conway, Digger, who initially had some separation anxiety,
was placed in a home in Maine. Unfortunately, his separation anxiety
worsened and he was returned to rescue and Robin's care. Now Digger has
made his move again - this time to Monroe Freeman of NY, a retired gentleman who
can devote his time to what's important - Digger, of course! |

Ginger,
another elderly dog, came to us when her life long owner felt that he could
no longer give her the care and attention she needed. It was a very
sad parting with everyone in tears, but this lovely red girl made the move
to Vermont where she'll spend the rest of her days with Robin Conway and a
houseful of canine companions. |

Moose found
himself facing euthanasia and in dire need of help after the sudden death of his
owner. Fortunately, his late owner's employer was involved in rescue
herself and called us seeking a home for this l sweet 12 year old blue
gentleman. Tranni and Austin Sedicum, of Connecticut, Afghan angels
extrordinaire, came riding up on their white horses and took Moose into their
home and hearts. |

Nathan
(now Tango), an
attractive b/m red, was found tied to the gate at the Thompson, CT
shelter one cold December morning. He was wearing a collar with a piece of
chain attached to it that was so entangled in his fur it had to be cut
out. Nathan was thin as a rail and had whip worm as well. In spite
of all that, he is a friendly, loving fellow. After a period of fostering
and rehab with Robin Conway in Vermont, Nathan was adopted by Jean Orr and Barb
Hays of Massachusetts. |

Jasper,
our first 2002 placement, was found stray in front of the New Haven, CT
animal shelter. The shelter staff recognized that he was an Afghan Hound
and called us. After a brief sojourn with a family in Massachusetts, he
returned to Connecticut for fostering until his placement with the Bohrers of
New Jersey. Jasper has a family to love, a new pal, Shagomar, to play with
and two fenced acres to run in. What more could a fellow ask for? |
