Butters Happy Tails Dog Adoption Story November 2017

Brendan & ButtersAdopted November 2017Mountain Cur / Husky

I didn't know what to expect adopting a puppy that I never met, but when I saw Butters' face on PetFinder I knew I needed to bring him home. 4 years later, he's matured into an incredible dog with fantastic manners and amazing intelligence! He has a fan club in our neighborhood (always willing to say hi for a treat), along with a ton of friends at the local dog park. Many people refer to him as "The Mayor" since he's always welcoming to new pups and loves to get them warmed up to playing with the big guys. His other hobbies include sleeping in the picture window, rolling down the hill in our backyard, going for hikes, and stealing the neighbor's newspaper.

Erin & Clover

As soon as I saw Clover (formerly Lexie) I knew she was going to be my dog. I sent an email to ask for more info about her and Kim wrote me back right away happy to answer any questions I had. She told me all about Clover's backstory and what to expect when bringing her home. Since she was located in AR and I am in CT we arranged a FaceTime so I could see Clover "in person." Kim really went above and beyond to help me through the entire process of adopting my dog, sending me pictures and keeping me updated every step of the way. Clover is a perfect fit for me and my family and I will be forever grateful for Kim and Second Chance Rescue for helping to connect us.

Victoria & Darcie

My boyfriend and I adopted sweet Darcie two days after my birthday. It was a momentous day as I had waited over 8 years to adopt a dog after my previous dogs, Hershey and Chelsea had passed. Darcie is my first rescue and I'm so thankful to have found her. She's affectionate, playful, energetic, and loyal. Our days are filled with walks, hikes, dog parks, belly rubs, tug of war, swimming, and fetch. She's the perfect dog for us in Colorado and we love her dearly. I'm so thankful for Petfinder and Darcie's rescue, Scroungy Dogs and Pretty Pups.

Carolyn & Frankie

Frankie was one of 11 pups born to a rescue dog found walking the streets of Mississippi. He is truly the best thing that has happened to our family. He has brought such joy and happiness to our once quiet household…we can’t even imagine life without is sappy kisses and playful howls!
