Success Story
Queenie arrived at the shelter in spring 2022. She had been found as a stray along with her sister Penny. To everyone’s surprise, Queenie was pregnant and soon gave birth to beautiful puppies. Her babies were all quickly adopted but time went on and Queenie didn’t find a home.
Her sister Penny was finally adopted after almost 2 years. Queenie stayed behind... She became stressed and sad in the shelter environment. Volunteers were working with her, taking her out for long walks, relaxing on the lawn, just loving her, but it wasn't home. Until a special pair of volunteers took notice of Queenie and would come to the shelter every weekend to take her out on long walks. A few months later they took her on the best walk of her life. To their home! This was just shy of her three-year anniversary at the shelter.
Today, Queenie finally knows what it is to be someone’s beloved pet. We thank families like this not only for adopting a shelter pet like Queenie, but for saving a life.
