Join us here each Monday as Regional Vice President Kathy Kreyling shares stories from the Adoption Center. Check out our Available Dogs to see who’s still waiting for their forever home.
Kanga
Today, a lady from Victoria BC came looking for her next grey who would be a companion for her older lab mix. She has had a number of purebreds and lurchers so she is very familiar with the dogs and had an idea of what she was looking for — a middle aged girl. All of the dogs we showed her got along well with her current dog so the decision was really up to her and she chose Kanga!!
Bong
I keep saying that doing turnout and the Brightwater walks are a greyt way to get to know the dogs and identify potential ones to adopt This couple definitely took advantage of those opportunities which gave one of our more reserved dogs a chance to get comfortable with them and start to show his true colors. As they watched him blossom, they realized what a special guy he is and knew they were going to have to adopt Bong, nka Dexter.
Wynter
After we helped get all the new dogs settled, we got to help a family pick out a new friend for their greyhound, Lucy, who has been mourning the loss of her brother 2 weeks ago. The dad kept hoping that Lucy was going to make his job really easy by making the selection for him. That didn’t happen … she got along with all the dogs except one so he was forced to make the decision himself. He saw a wide variety of dogs from one of our shyest dogs to a couple of our most energetic ones. At the end of the day, he and Lucy picked our sweet girl from Korea, Wynter, who is now known as Ethel.
