A Happy Turkey time to everyone! Be safe if traveling, be thankful for having the time off!
We will be facilitating adoption events this weekend at Petco Copperfield, 6883 Highway 6 North, Houston on Saturday, 11/29/14 from 1-5:30 and at Petco Westheimer, 10911 Westheimer in Houston on Sunday, 11/30/14. Come out and visit, maybe you will find a new family member! Or you can just play with the kitties & doggies!
We always love it when former "adoptees" come to visit with their families, yesterday at Copperfield adoptions was no exception.
Little Camo came to visit with "his boy" and family. A visit from this fellow is an especially sweet treat when you know his fight against the odds. Camo came into the shelter with a bad leg injury that was initially treated, he went to foster care, and the injury became worse due to infection. In the end, the leg had to be amputated to save his life. These folks saw past what a lot of other folks saw as a barrier to adoption and it ended up being a lovely fit for all concerned.
No adoption is ever perfect, no animal is ever perfect, but there are a lot of animals out there who would gladly welcome love and caring from some unconditional imperfect people like Camo got.
Tiger with his new sibling and parents.
Always love the "gotcha" days, when the puppies & the kitties get the opportunity to "go home".

Update 8/12/13: Happy to share that Charlie has been adopted!
----------------------------------------
We'd like to introduce you to an angel of a furkid, Charlie, he's a very special boy who is in need of a wonderful loving home.
For those of you who may not know the story, this is Miss Penny. She came into our lives one day when we were doing an adoption event at the Petco Copperfield location in Houston, TX. Someone had left her tied to a garbage bin in the back of the store in the rain. This purebred senior Labrador found herself literally thrown out in the trash. The folks at Petco were genuinely horrified at such cruelty and reached out to some of the folks who volunteered at the adoption events.
Lots of folks ask why do you do what you do? They say they could not do it, too heartbreaking.
We beg to differ, we find absolutely nothing heartbreaking about helping dogs here like Rosco, now known as Petee, find a good friend to live his life with.
