Brandi (fka Pinta) was adopted in December 2021. Her adoptive dad recently sent us this wonderful "pupdate" about her. She is enjoying her life with her dad and her canine sibling Wiley. We are over the moon to hear how well she is doing!
"Pinta, whose name is now Brandi is the happiest of girls. I couldn’t be more stoked on how amazing she is and well behaved. The night I brought her home she was quiet as a mouse the whole car ride (3 hours with some bathroom stops). When we arrived at the house you could sense a ray of joy filled her as she jumped on the couch and made herself right at home. She played all night and slept with me and Wiley in bed. Our daily activities our morning hikes and the occasional dog park visit. We live in the mountains and she loves all the birds and lizards. Wiley and her come with me to work almost everyday and are always on the best behavior keeping me company. Wiley (my first rescue) and her have become inseparable and are two peas in a pod. They snuggle every night and keep each other company everyday. The cutest thing was Wiley had a vet appointment a few months back and she cried a little bit in the truck when Wiley was gone for 30 mins. Her separation anxiety is non existent but when at the vet they know where they are LOL. She is so smart. She is still crated when I leave the house and the dogs are alone but that is because I do that with all dogs until they are around 2 years old. She spends some times alone outside the crate and is almost ready to graduate! She is almost fully grown I would say. She is between 38-40 lbs and is always ready for food time! Never a beggar tho. I can tell how happy she is and enjoys her life with us. I couldn’t imagine her being anywhere else, and I couldn’t imagine my life without her. Thank you for the trust and bringing her into our lives."
We received a "pupdate" about Fox, who was adopted from ARWOB in April 2022. His adoptive family loves him and he's enjoying the good life! Here is what his adoptive mom has to say:
"Fox is doing AMAZING and was the missing piece to our little Family. We absolutely adore him, including his sister, Princess Anna (FKA - Carmelita). He is the happiest kiddo and is such a joy to have around. Fox loves his walks and regular playdates with his Best Friends Lady and Liberty (our neighbors dogs), followed by his naps in the sunshine with his sister. We discovered he is not a big fan of water, however he loves the beach sand under his paws and just being with us. He had so much fun during a recent camping trip to the beach with his zoomies and digging in the soft sand. He continues to be an excellent off leash/ loose leash walker. We have continued training and are now enjoying practicing some agility skills."
Handsome Valentino was adopted in July 2022 and he is doing really well in his new home with his loving family. Here is what his adoptive mom has to say:
"Valen’Tino’ is a joy… and a much loved addition to our family. He provided us with plenty of laughs and never fails to surprise. An absolute and much appreciated blessing in our household, in which he of course reigns supreme!"
Percy was adopted into a loving home in May 2016. In June of 2022, his new feline sister Cashew joined this loving household. We just LOVE return adopters!! They are best friends and their adoptive mom has told us she is so happy that Percy has a friend. This really makes our day!
We just love happy endings and repeat adopters! Back in June of 2022, Cashew and her mother and siblings were rescued from the Devore shelter just in the nick of time. A loving foster drove 2 hours one way to exit them and bring them under ARWOB's care. Fast forward to July 2022 and Cashew was adopted by a previous ARWOB adopter! She joined the loving home with her feline brother Percy, who was adopted from ARWOB in May 2016. Talk about a dream come true for both kitties! Here is what Cashew's adoptive mom had to say:
"We just love Cashew and we are so happy that Percy has a friend. She is so playful and energetic and has such a sweet personality."
