Cleveland, OHPeanut arrived in mid-April with his dog sibling Princess (she got herself a new home in record time) and we are so excited he now has a forever home too! Many thanks to Kim, she has been his foster provider and Peanuts temporary dog-mom, for taking such great care of him. We are positive you and your girl Charlie had a big impact on his life and for that we are grateful.
“He’s been a great foster dog. He came here timid and scared and is leaving enthusiastic and sometimes annoyingly insistent. He wasn’t a good eater and now does a two foot vertical leap to try and get at the bowl while it’s still in my hand. He pulled on the leash a lot but now will heal next to Charlie on a walk. Charlie turned him into an expert at chasing squirrels, chipmunks and birds out of the yard, although at first you could tell he wasn’t sure why they were running. I’ll miss him but wouldn’t have missed him for the world!”
Kim S., Lakewood Ohio
Volunteer Foster Provider
Andrew and his fiance are first time dog owners and we are so happy they applied and waited patiently for Peanut. This past weekend Peanut joined his new family, who also happen to reside in Lakewood, and we are sure he has become a welcome addition. Don’t forget you’re not too far from Kim and Charlie and although she may not admit it we are pretty sure she wouldn’t mind a visit once in awhile.
If you would like to help our dogs transition into forever homes consider becoming a foster provider. Whether you work full time, don’t work at all, have a fenced in yard, or live in an apartment etc., we can find a dog for you to foster! We do require that anyone who is interested in becoming a foster parent or family attend one of our quarterly Foster Program Workshops and then complete the foster application once you are sure our program is a match for your lifestyle. For more information contact our foster coordinators via email.
