This page is under development every day at ACHS! Please help us by sending us stories of your happy adoptions by e-mail or regular mail.
And don't forget to create NEW success stories by visiting our pets page to look into adopting a new family member!
Below are stories of some of our recent successes!
Hank came to us in June of 2009 when someone left him in our pens outside. Hank lived with his very best friend, Buster the beagle, until Buster left for a rescue and found a forever home earlier this year. Hank was sad when Buster left.
Then Hank started to turn into a good luck charm! Ever since Buster left, any dog who became Hank's buddy has been adopted.
Now it's finally Hank's turn to find a new family and home. Hank spends his days being lazy around the house. Hank enjoys stealing the whole box of pizza off of the table and snuggling in his bed with his blanket. We are so happy for Hank and his new family!
Silky is 8+ years old. She was surrendered to the Humane Society with her puppy. Silky had lots of tumors on her belly and could not nurse the puppy. Sadly, her puppy didn't make it.
Soon after, we had Silky spayed and all her little tumors went away. Thanks to the nuturing care of Amy, the vet tech, and the rest of the shelter, Silky finally found the perfect home!
This is Fox, a Treeing Walker Coonhound!
He was adopted in February of 2010. Fox waited for his new home from the time he was 3 months old to almost a year old!
This is a photo of Fox with his new family!
Meet Missy, Dory, and Judy.
They are Shih Tzu/ Jack Russell Mixes! Missy is 13, Dory is 11, and Judy is 9. They are mother and daughters. They were surrendered to ACHS when one of their owners passed away and the other went to a nursing home.
Finally, after a few months of waiting, they all 3 were adopted to the same nice lady!
This is Sophie, a Peekapoo!
Sophie was found out in the woods, matted beyond all belief! She must have been surviving alone for well over a year. She is 6 years or older. Originally, she had a bad attitude and ruled the roost! We were worried that she would never get a home...
But thankfully Jan, a lady who works at our shelter, decided to take her home! Now both are very happy!
