Lily

We adopted lovely Lily one week ago. She has been a fantastic addition to our home. Lily loves to be cuddled and chase her ball around the garden. Our dog Jada and Lily are great company for each other. Lily came from a foster home where she recieved excellent care and training. Bringing her into our home was a very smooth transition. Couldn't ask for a better adoption. So happy we could save a life of a sweet puppy in need. :)

Angus Wee Beastie

Monday, November 14th will mark one year since Angus Wee Beastie (formerly Spunky) became a member of my little family and I can't begin to tell you how blessed I am to have him in my life. The name? I get asked about that a lot. For nearly a week after he came home with me, I couldn't come up with a name that "felt right." So in the meantime, he was dubbed "Wee Beastie". Eventually I hit upon Angus and it went so well with Wee Beastie, the whole thing sort of "stuck."

Angus is an absolute joy. He adores his "big sister" Freyja - stealing her favorite ball one minute and giving her thorough ear washings the next. He has such a bright little personality with a great big streak of stubborn thrown in to balance things out a bit. And Freyja is just as fond of Angus as he is of her - they are inseperable (and complete partners in crime). I half think the phrase "in cahoots" was invented just for them and of course I wouldn't have it any other way.

Favorite words: squirrel, num-num, park, ball, outside, kitty
Favorite things to do: snuggle, squeak toys, go to the park with Freyja, practice telepathy on mommy (you want to give me a treat, you want to give me a treat, you want to give me…)
Favorite treats: baby carrots, bully sticks
Favorite toys: the oldest, baldest tennis ball I can find
Tricks mommy makes me learn: sit, lay down, dead dog, high five, shake, beg

I can't thank the adoption coordinators or Angus's foster mom enough. They were very encouraging and supportive through the entire process and took my concerns about introducing a 2nd dog very seriously, which tells me that they have a real passion for what they do and for the dogs they save. So thank you… without you, my little family wouldn't be complete.

Love for Levi

We had talked about getting a puppy for a few years, but the time wasn't right. One night we wondered, "when is the right time?" and it was never going to get better so we started the hunt and thought if it's meant to be, we will find the right puppy. Once we found PUP online, we continued watching their posts. And within a few days we found Levi. Pam and Melanie were so willing to set up a time to meet. We could tell they were volunteering with PUP because they really cared for the pets. We met Levi on Aug 30th in front of Petco. He was so sweet. We took him for a walk to see if we were compatible. He was very attached to his foster mom and we could see he was a lover. We could tell immediately he was tender hearted and just purely sweet. we had already prepared the house and had bought toys (way too many before we'd even met our pet) and supplies. We took Levi home and its never been the same since. He is so perfect for us, we didn't even change his name. Neither of us thought we
would ever be the type of pet owner who talked baby talk or dressed our pet in costumes, but here we are. Levi was a sheriff for Halloween. He has his own blanket and a toy chest full of toys and bones. He has a diaper bag for when we travel. And our family loves him too. Even Great Grandma melts when she spends time with Levi.
We've had him 10 weeks now and he knows 4 tricks and a few "in-progress". He is socializing extemely well and fully potty trained. He rings the bell to go outside and has even tricked us a few times just to get a treat.
We can't thank PUP enough for their patience with all our questions as new puppy owners and matching us with our baby. PUP made the adoption experience as easy as possible. He is the love of our life and is amazing how much he adds to our life. We are so happy we adopted Levi and at the same time provided a home to a loving pet. Its as if he knows we rescued him and he is on his best behavior.
Thanks PUP!!
