Dottie

Hi Andi, I hope you had very happy holidays! I thought you might be wondering about Dottie abs just wanted to let you know she has settled in so well. She’s gotten comfortable in the house/yard, and is so gentle with our kids and senior dog. We are so happy we found her! Sharing a few pictures of her cuddling and enjoying the snow!
Take care! Becca

Toby (Butterscotch) – Forever In My Heart

Hi, I just wanted to thank you all. My dog was with me 11 years and cannot imagine all these years with out him. We had some great experiences together. He was my best friend and truly has had a forever home in my heart  thank you. Javier

Ash (Bejamin) – Will Be Missed Forever

On a beautiful sunny spring afternoon in 2008, I met Ash for the first time. He was so shy and quiet, and I fell in love with him immediately. I grew up with dogs, and had always wanted one since I had moved out on my own. My oldest daughter, Lily, was born Oct of 2007, and I wanted her to experience growing up with a dog.  Together Ash and Lily grew, until my youngest daughter, Abigail, was born Feb of 2011. He was immediately just as protective of her, as he was Lily. He always stayed by their side, keeping an ever vigilant watch of them both. He was always there to play with them, or to cuddle on the couch. He was always there to lick their tears, or great them enthusiastically whenever they came home.

Trevor – Reaching Higher Than Ever

Dear AFH: We just had to share with our friends at AFH.  Trevor (formerly “Baxter” adopted 2014 from AFH) earned a 2021 national ranking in obedience competition in the Companion Dog Sports Program (CDSP).  He is ranked #12 in Open A class in the country!   He is nearing 8 years of age and with patience and consistency early in his life, has overcome his reactivity and anxiety to become a wonderful dog and my best friend.  He has gone farther than anyone could have dreamt and we are so proud of him. Thanks for letting us share our good news!

Yours, Diana Hong & Trevor

Ovie – Loyal for So Long

Dear AFH….  I am a big fan of your organization, and have adopted a couple dogs from you over the years….  Emily….cared for Ovie ….until he became ill with an aggressive form of bone cancer.  We had to send him over the rainbow bridge on Dec. 23.  My Vet was unable to come to him when the time came, so we called Peaceful Passage, who sent a wonderful vet to us and helped Ovie pass at home.  He was 14 years old, and was a wonderful protector/pet/soother to Emily for all of those years.  Ovie was dog aggressive, but got along with his pal Holtby (seeing a name pattern here?), and didn’t get along with a lot of people, but those of us he loved, he loved fiercely.  He was a wonderful dog, and I am glad my daughter had him and his loyalty for so long.  I am sure that when she is ready to look for a pal for Holtby ( a stray found along the side of I270), she will come to you guys first.  Thank you for all that you do.

Nugget – Only Son, Best Friend

It’s with the deepest pain imaginable that I notify you of the passing of my only son, best friend and companion. There are no words to express my sadness and desolation, I miss him every second 24/7. I adopted Nugget from AFH March 8, 2010. He was the Alfa of the twelve puppies named after the California Gold Rush litter fostered by Marilyn Christensen. 

Thanks again for allowing me to take care of wonderful Nugget!!! 😭

Zoe Maiden of Honor!

Good morning…We got married on October 1 and decided to do a donation for each guest that attended in lieu of favors. We got our dog Zoe through you all and therefore your organization holds a special place in our hearts!
