Frankie’s dad & Marcus’ new dad are friends who live a block apart. After Frankie’s dad adopted he knew his friend was looking for a Chihuahua to adopt, so when I posted Marcus he screenshot him the info right away. Because Marcus & Frankie were fostered together & get along beautifully, the dads now have built in playmates & pet sitting all in one.

Alumni note:
One year ago, we surprised the kids and adopted this little lady from Heather’s Foster Dogs. She stepped out of the van and looked at me with her big brown eyes full of worry and I knew she was meant to be ours. She’s thriving right at home with sister Violet. Thank you all for giving her a second chance to be loved! Happy Gotcha Day, Hazel Louise! 💜🐶
