Happy Tails For Maddie

When did you adopt your pet from AARF?: June 13th, 2017
Pet’s AARF Name: Maddie
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Ripley
How is your adopted pet doing? Ripley hasn’t let the whole “being deaf” thing get in her way. She’s become a regular adventure pup exploring the Sierras Mountains of California, the salt flats of Utah and the back woods of Chattanooga. She has learned very quickly how to communicate via a vibrating collar when she’s out climbing rocks with us so she never gets lost. We took her training very seriously and she already has all her basic commands down (through learning puppy sign language). We’re now working on roll over! She’s one happy pup, loves people her cat siblings (even though they aren’t quite convinced), other dogs and lives for the weekend when she gets to explore outside and going climbing with us.
