Jane & Bob adopted Tonya March 29, 2013. Tonya’s new name is Magnolia. “Magnolia (the dog f/n/a Tonya) came into our lives on Good Friday, March 29, 2013. I cannot begin to tell you all what a blessing she is. I knew I wanted a rescue and for months I was looking and thought I had found the perfect dog at least 7 times. However, every single time I had my heart set on each of them, something happened and thankfully, the dogs were adopted. But I was so disappointed. I would tell my husband each time that we lost the perfect dog for us. He kept saying we’ll find one, don’t worry. One day, I stumbled upon the A.A.R.F. website. I looked through the dogs for adoption and there I saw a picture of Magnolia’s face. I said that’s the one, I just knew it. I printed out all her information and brought it home. My husband said if you think this is the one, I’m happy. I filled out the paperwork and was out of state at a wedding when I got the call that we were approved for her adoption While I was waiting for her, her foster Mom Anna sent me videos which made the time go even faster. I think it was divine intervention that I picked her up on Good Friday. As soon as she was placed in my arms, she knew she was home. What a difference in our lives! She has literally become the Honorary Mayor of our Town. Everyone knows Magnolia. She has so many rescue friends in the neighborhood that we see when we go on our daily long walks. Even her vet wants to adopt her and I have even brought her to my law office. This little bundle of energy has changed our lives so much and everyday I ask God everyday to protect and take care of all animals in foster care and shelters that they will get furever homes. We are one lucky couple and are so happy. Thank you A.A.R.F and all foster parents. You will never know how grateful we are.”
