This is little Woo Woo, she is a 9-year-old poodle mix. Her previous owner decided that since Woo Woo didn't like the new puppy in the house, she would relinquish her to us. We took this sweet girl in this morning at 10:00, and by noon she had her new home. Her new mom called me last week asking if we had any non-shedding small dogs, so I told her about Woo Woo coming in. She came out today and adopted her. Woo Woo is now named Ena, and will have the happiest home she deserves, with no puppies to upset her. Happy Tails to this sweet girl.

In rescue and shelters all adoptions are special, but when a family comes along and adopts a 12-year-old senior that seems to be a bit more special.
Wheezer came to us 2 years ago with his buddy Rosie. They lived in a hoarding situation where they were kept in crates the whole time. Rosie passed earlier this year, and we didn't want Wheezer to go into a depression without his friend, so Nina took him into her house so he'd at least have company and could watch over the rest of the ranch like it was his kingdom. Well, yesterday Wheezer got to go to his perfect forever home. He has a large yard, with lots of grass to run and play in, yes, he still has s***k to play, a cat friend to keep him company, and loving parents who are over the moon in love with this sweet boy. We hope Wheezer has a lot more years to enjoy his new life. Happy Tails sweet boy.

Emma got to go home yesterday. She has found the loving home she's always dreamed of. Her mom lost her little one a few months back and the house was empty; Emma will fill that space. Happy Tails to this little girl and her new mom.

Just finished up our 10th spay and neuter clinic. This is the last one for the year and we'll start again in February of next year. If you want to take advantage of this program please call early, the spots fill up fast. In the 10 months that we've done this we've had almost 600 pets altered, vaccinated, and microchipped. As always a huge THANK YOU to the whole staff at Chino Valley Animal Hospital, all of our volunteers, and for Jed's Sandwich Shop and Catering, and to all the responsible pet owners. None of this is possible without all of you.
