Pawtentially Yours: Sonya!

Sweet Sonya is an expert in close-calls. The one-year-old Belgian Malinois mix is gorgeous, friendly and playful, but somehow, she still found herself on the wrong side of a euthanasia list at the local shelter. The problem was that Sonya had a very slight condition on her eyelid. Even though the problem was easily correctable with minor surgery, Sonya needed to be rescued from the shelter immediately to ensure that her close call was as near as she would ever be to such a scary and undeserved fate. Luckily, thats just what happened. Now recovering splendidly from her surgery, gentle Sonya is ready to leave her past behind and start life anew! With her fantastic attitude, wiggly affection, and infectious positive energy, Sonya is destined to bring a lot of love to a very lucky family. For details about adopting or fostering her, contact UAF at uafdogs@gmail.com.

Morsels of Goodness: Peanut - Now Peaches!

We sure do love spreading good news! Some of you may have read about Peanut, a lovely and sweet lab mix, in our recent Home for the Holidays series. Well, we're happy to report that Peanut has found her forever home! Her new family even renamed her Peaches to symbolize her new life! Read the wonderful note below from Wendy, Peaches' new forever mom:

Peaches is doing fabulous. The weekend was perfect with the kids home and she has settled in at the store with me. The kids and I start obedience classes, 8 weeks this Friday. We were so pleased that the trainer Michelle was eager to train all 3 kids and me with Peaches.

We ALL love her and she got along great with the in-laws mini-daschund. Mostly she loves curling up in her soft basket and sleeping. She's a good girl protective yet so very loving. She's like our kids hard to wake up in the morning except this morning she greeted us with loves & cuddles in bed. She is such a lover!!!

We thank you from rescuing her off Craigs list so we could adopt her! What a blessing to our family and she completes US!!
