To New Beginnings!

Two victories in two days! These two young, adorable dogs were saved from the Devore Animal Shelter's death row! All thanks to facebook.

This sweet boy is only 11 months old and was just minutes away from being put to sleep when I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue saw the post about him on Pet Connect.US's facebook and stepped up to take him in! His new foster family has named him Chance and thanks to them and the wonderful people at I.C.A.R.E., he will be able to live a happy life full of love.

This sweetheart is only 2 years old and was originally scheduled to be put to sleep at noon today until a wonderful girl who saw the post called the shelter and begged for an extension.  The manager said he would give the dog until 5:30pm and if no one picked him up, the dog would be put down first thing in the morning. After a few hours of watching the thread on Pet Connect.US's facebook page (they post animals who are on death row in the hopes that someone will rescue them before it's too late) and helping to spread the word about this poor dog, a woman commented saying that she and her family wanted to adopt him!  Someone else had offered to pay for the pull fee and the neuter fee, so all she has to do is give him a loving home!  There was already a puller down at the shelter waiting to get the OK to pull the dog for whoever stepped up to rescue him. The newly saved doggie will be neutered tomorrow, then will get to meet his new family for the first time.  Such a happy ending for such a sweet baby.

Stories such as these make me so happy and restores my faith in people.  It's nice to know that in this crazy world, there are still kind hearted, loving people out there willing to help.
