Six-year-old Rudy had a lot of anxieties. He was spooked by noises and would bark at other dogs. He’d been in two homes before he was surrendered to us.

Benson came from the shelter into foster care and quickly showed his foster families what a wonderful guy he is! He adores people, especially kids–but cats?

Chester

Chester was a chunky monkey when he came into rescue. He showed his foster mom how he loves to hang out and cuddle. But he also turned out to enjoy running and biking, gleefully bobbing his head up and down with each stride. And he catches toys with his front paws like a human! No

Sophie is a 12-year-old sweetheart who was surrendered when she refused to accept the new puppy in her home. Her anxiety issues became behavioral issues with that boisterous pup around.

Mabel arrived with fleas and ticks and lumps and bumps—but none of that kept her from showing what a Love Bug she is. She tolerated baths and vet care and even surgeries like a champ. This go-with-the-flow girl was fine, as long as there were people nearby for cuddling. Thank you, Anna, for acing your
