Happy Tails For Chi Chi

When did you adopt your pet from AARF?: September 2016

Pet’s AARF Name: Chi Chi

Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Chi Chi

How is your adopted pet doing? Chi Chi has been an absolute joy to have as a part of our family. She made herself at home right away. Her most favorite thing to do is chase squirrels and play with her dog brother Diego. She keeps Diego in check especially with their toys. She guards my food from him while I’m eating and she loves to snuggle…but on her own terms.

Happy Tails For Hemsley

When did you adopt your pet from AARF?: April 2016

Pet’s AARF Name: Hemsley

Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Hemsley

How is your adopted pet doing? Hemsley is such a blessing. When I saw his picture I knew he was mean for me, I had graduated from a 6 month rehab for drug addiction and was just settling into my new home and new job at a horse barn. I had been looking for a puppy for sometime at different rescues and hadn’t found any perfect fits. Hemsley was in the process of being adopted when I contacted you, but he was the only one I felt a spark for in the litter. A few days later I saw an email that his adoption fell through and I asked if he was available still. I didn’t respond fast enough so yet again he was in the process of being adopted. It was meant to be because his second adoption fell through and I spent every last penny I had to get him to New Hampshire with me! Hemsley is a sweet, kind, gentle soul and he loves coming to work with me every day. He can tell when I am feeling down and he comes rite to me when I need him the most. He learned all his tricks in one night because he is that smart and he is the best running buddie I could ask for. Car rides to Vermont to visit my family are easy because he loves the car and loves all other dogs when we visit! Thank you so much for giving me my best friend. A true best friend who licks tears right from my face.

How is your adopted pet doing? Rey has been an amazing addition to our family. She’s such a good girl! She fit in perfectly from the start.

Happy Tails For Wylie

When did you adopt your pet from AARF?: Feb 2017

Pet’s AARF Name: Wylie

Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Timber

How is your adopted pet doing? Timber makes our family complete! He is the happiest dog I know, always smiling and wiggling around. We were nervous at first since we have cats, but he does great with them and loves them. Lori and Cherryl worked with me, answered all my questions, and helped make the overall process easy. Thank you AARF, we love having Timber make the days brighter!
