Great adoption events continue!

We started the week with our trip to the shelter to pull dogs. Those that follow us may have seen the post on Facebook, everyone taking bets on how many I'd come home with. Well, the winning guess was 16! Among them:

Bonaroo, a sheltie mix puppy boy about 8 weeks old
Jasmine, an 8 week old yellow lab puppy girl that was adopted the day after we got back!
Merlin, an 8 week old GSD / rottie mix puppy boy
Dooley, a beagle / pug mix boy about a year old
Gin'E (for search engine) and her 3 nursing puppies Google, Yahoo and Bing. They are rat terrier mixes.
Junebug, a female 8 week old Great Pyrenees mix puppy
O'Connor, a gorgeous young adult male American Eskimo
Scooby, a young adult male Yorkie
Scrappy, a young adult male Cairn Terrier
Shaggy, a young adult male Schnauzer
Pierre, a young adult male Scottie
Precious, a 6 year old female toy poodle
Prince, a 5 year old male toy poodle

They are on a quarantine hold for two weeks during which time we'll be evaluating their temperament.

This week's adoption event was wonderful again!

With Mr.HART in Atlanta for a concert, transport space was limited. My vehicle is so tiny I'd have to really work to transport a mouse! Luckily our shelter coordinator had the day off and Mr.TransportCoordinator didn't mind staying home to play fur kid daddy for mommy!

Tammy got to our house on time but I was running late............as usual! Tammy's got several dogs that just came available that are just wonderful so we decided to give the other dogs a week off. We loaded up Sugar and Spice, two adorable little bassett sisters and Mork and Mindy two very tiny little Norfolk terrier mix puppies that someone had found in a dumpster. I brought along Bolt since he'd only been to one event so far.

We loaded and thanks to Tammy's driving and few cars on the road we made it on time. We had tons of volunteers show up, always a wonderful thing! We'd had a lady call before we left to say she was driving all the way from Crossville with her fur baby to visit Spice. We walked in and the manager tracked us down to let us know she'd called to let him know too! She obviously fell in love with her over the internet!

In the meantime we had two ladies come in and fall instantly in love with Mork and Mindy. No surprise to any of us. They are beyond precious! They decided to adopt them both! We were so happy. After some cruel human threw them in a dumpster like trash they not only got a home, but got to stay together!

The lady about Spice showed up - Yay! Her dog is so laid back and easy going that she had no issue at all with Spice. Spice is just a laid back girl, so it seemed like it was meant to be. She called home to make sure everyone was absolutely positive they wanted the adoption and a resounding yes followed! We were thrilled that on her first day out, Spice found a family!

A couple came in and looked at Sugar. You could tell they just adored her. She was so sad when her sister left, walked around the pen and cried. When they took her out she climbed right in their lap. Just a complete snuggle bug! So daddy went home to get their dog to make sure they'd get along. Sugar is just so laid back it didn't seem to affect her one way or another. Because they wanted a dog to play with theirs, they took Bolt out. It wound up a perfect match and he was adopted!

By the end of the day 4 of the 5 we came in with had homes / families! We couldn't be happier!
