You may be wondering what’s going on with Lily Belle, one of our best-kept secrets at rescue for the past year of so. It’s been a long haul—and a lot of learning to just be a “normal” dog—but we can now announce that her foster family has decided to make her their own!

Our sweet, kiss-missy, freckle-faced puddin’ pop, Mavis, has gone to her forever home! We were surprised it took her so long to find a home, but we know the Brewsters did a lot to “prepare” her for her next family during her foster stay with them. 😉

Yes, sir, that’s his baby … We’ve been sitting on this for awhile, waiting for a pic of Dad and baby, but we’re going to go ahead and make it public … Nog has been adopted!

So, first of all … Happy Friday! Second of all … Rocky has (finally) gone home! YEP! Some of you have already figured out that he’s “mysteriously” disappeared from our websites after his debut on Susie’s Senior Dogs a couple of weeks ago. That’s because Mary McClughen of Ohio fell in love with him and drove down to get him!

We’re about to start another rotation of “daily featured dogs,” which we do with every few weeks based on a theme or the time of year on our social media sites. Every time we kick them off, we always kick them off with the dog who was at the top of the last rotation and is still with us … and, for the past several rounds, it’s been poor Hunter … and every time we post him, we always wonder, “Why is this sweet boy still with us?!”

Mondays are rarely fun days for anyone, but here’s some fabulous news — Dixie has been adopted!!!

J.R. arrived from Alabama back in April after two out-of-state rescues helped to network and transport him to Atlanta. He had been hit by a car, and his knees and hips were a bit out of whack. It looked like surgery was inevitable, but he had already started to heal and doc felt that he was going to heal just fine with medications and 10 weeks of rest.

It’s been five months since our beautiful vol Pat saved Buster after being hit by a car in a busy intersection. It took that long to heal from his wounds and we wondered if this little Chi/Terrier boy would ever find his forever home because of his disability. But, on Thursday, the pin was removed from his leg … and he is Florida bound with his new and amazing mom, Mindy Underberger.

We were all a bit heartbroken for (big) little Chloe when she arrived at rescue last month. She had been through so much, having lost both the only family she knew since she was a baby after 12 years and her younger sister, who was adopted. She was very confused and understandably nervous about what was happening and what was going to happen next. Now, we know—she knows—she’ll never have to worry again.

Happy Hump Day! It’s definitely one for us as we have an adoption to announce! Just three days after leaving the ranch, we have already received word from Sparky’s new family that he will not be coming back. Woohoo!

Here’s a feel-good story for your holiday. Rusty has gone home!
