Pidge Happy Tails Dog Adoption Story December 2021

Becki & PidgeAdopted December 2021Australian Shepherd / Border Collie

My husband and I stopped by the shelter just to see the latest addition to the building. I purposely took my husband so I wouldn't be tempted! Pidge was the last kennel . I stopped to pet (as I did with all the dogs) I felt a connection right away! But knew we weren't there to adopt. I looked over at my husband who had misty eyes. We were DOOMED! He's been with us 6 weeks and it is a perfect match! We couldn't be happier. ADOPT!

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!
