MITZI AND CLARK

Clark was adopted May 8, 2005 after I lost my dachshund Fritz at the age of 16. My daughter insisted that Clark needed a playmate after I lost Lady, my Shih Tzu, in May 2006 at the age of 17.

 

When Mitzi became available for adoption, she came home with us in May 2007. Both have been great little companions to me and each other. They are good little watchdogs, play together well and are very robust little ones.

 

Mitzi is the house "boss". They also keep Chilly, my chinchilla, on her toes too. I enjoy both of them immensely.

SCOOTER

My name Scooter and I was adopted from the St. Joseph Animal Shelter and I just want to tell you about my home life style.

 

 I am living with my new family and they are great to be around, I just can't say enough good things about them. It has been ten months I have been living here and the very first thing I did when I arrived home is go jump upon the sofa in the sun room and just gaze out the windows to the outside. What a sight to see, all the birds, butterflies, fire flies, moles, grasshoppers, well you get the idea. 

 

I have neighbors that also love me, I visit them once in a while too. I think this picture of myself is one of the best ones, but my master doesn't think so since I am in the wash basin, however, the misses will just about do anything I want, she is a real push over!

 

Thanks to all with the Friends of the Animal Shelter for all your giving when I needed it most.

MUFFY

Our patience paid off when we were able to bring home a Shih Tzu puppy from the Animal Shelter. He was one of many rescued from a home in St. Joseph and has added a tremendous amount of joy to our life. 

 

The selection was easy for us- the puppy chose us!! The adoption process was simple and the staff was generous in their advice on making the transition easier on the puppy and even provided us with a pet care kit. Being able to have all of our pet's medical questions answered from our vet when we picked him up at their office was another bonus.

 

Our new addition, Muffy, has made our home and family complete.
