Shelter dog update

Every once in a while, we have guests at the shelter who don't stay long and end up with a perfect family. Mollie and Devo were two of those dogs. They came in together and because Mollie was a small female, she was adopted out by herself. When the family came in and fell in love with Devo, they said they wished they had known we had Mollie and they would have taken her also.

Several weeks went by after Devo and Mollie had been adopted to separate families and Mollie was returned to us. The adoption counselor who had done Devo's adoption remembered what the family had said about adopting Mollie also. He called the family, the came right down and Mollie and Devo were together again.

The HSSC Adoption Manager forwarded this on to me today from Mollie and Devo's Mom. Talk about a happy ending. Wow, don't we wish all adoptions ended up this way.

Hey Guys; 1/12/2009 Just wanted to send you our yearly update on Mollie and Devo (The Dalmatians). They just celebrated their 11th Birthday yesterday! Our 2 year anniversary is also right around the corner (February 22nd). They are amazing. They keep us on our toes. They become more lovable each day. Miss Mollie is no longer afraid of men. If you can remember when we got her she was just so terrified. Her and her daddy are best friends. She is daddy's little angel. Mr. Devo is still as sweet as ever. We just had their annual check up at the doctors and they are in excellent health. They are both finally at their ideal weight. We did have a bit of trouble with Miss Mollie gaining weight. Mollie is 49 lbs and Devo is 65 lbs. Anyways, we are doing wonderful. Thanks Again.

John, Nicole, Mollie, and Devo Arbuckle
