Pet’s AARF Name: Sammy
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Pogie
How is your adopted pet doing? Pogie is such a light in my life!! I think (and hope) he is loving Ithaca as much as I love him. Pogie has hiked many miles with me already, and seen most of the local waterfalls and splashed around in all the gorges. He loves to play fetch and tug of war with me but settles very nicely into a cuddle bug routine through the night. Pogie is learning tricks very quickly and knows how to sit, lay down, shake, other paw, stay, come, circle, heel and is learning how to roll over now! He has met some local doggie friends and loved them! He loves everyone we run into on walks and is just the best boy. I am looking forward to many future adventures!!

Pet’s AARF Name: Delilah
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Skye
How is your adopted pet doing? We can’t even remember life without Skye and hopefully she thinks she’s in doggie heaven every day. What did we do without her before? She is a constant source of joy to all 6 of us, whether it’s a companion for farm work, watching her hunt field mice in the hay fields, walks, car rides…. She fits perfectly in all aspects of our lives. She’s such a quick learner that she already has basic commands down pat and is learning high level manners and even helping work the horses! She was supposed to be sleeping in her crate at night but I often find her smuggled in to someone’s bed in the morning, pretending like she is invisible!

Pet’s AARF Name: Tux
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Charley
How is your adopted pet doing? Charley came into our lives at a time when we were deeply grieving the death of our male 14 year-old tuxedo, Rhett. He is a precious baby -a gift from God. He joined his new sister, Scarlett, also 14 years old. Charley interrupted her retirement but she loves him so. Charley is the sweetest kitty and we love him so much. It was love at first sight when Lauren reached into the cage and handed him to Carter. He’s a little rascal sometimes and is quite the entertainer. He loves his cat tree and laying on the ottoman in the sunroom for his longest daily nap. Our lives are richly blessed because of him.

Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Walter
How is your adopted pet doing? Walter was a little grumpy at the change in his home and his new older brother but has quickly settled in and taken up his spot as a spoiled pup should. Does not hesitate to offer kisses and a happy dance now when I come in the door

Pet’s AARF Name: Dacy/Daisy
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Daisy
How is your adopted pet doing? Daisy is just delightful and a champion snuggler. She enjoys taking walks on a leash, and running around our fenced back yard. She has really nice manners and an easy temperment. She’s getting over her initial shyness and has especially taken to our son’s beagles, who spend a lot of time with us. The three of them enjoy chasing chipmunks in the yard. We’re so lucky to have her. Thanks to AARF for bringing Daisy into our life! Thanks especially to her foster mom! We will definitely recommend you all.
