A McGuyver

MacGyver is a special little guy who has finally found his well-deserved forever home! MacGyver unfortunately came into rescue with a lot of baggage from his past. He was passed around from home to home, waiting for someone to call him their own. When MacGyver first came into foster with me, it was evident that he had a lot of learning to do in order to reach his fullest potential. I could tell right away that MacGyver was a very bright pup and it proved to be true when we started training. He picked up obedience commands and behavioral concepts very quickly and proved to be very driven to learn new skills. We spent these past few months really honing in on his behavioral issues to gear him up for adoption. It was not easy on either part but MacGyver woke up each morning ready to tackle the day's challenge. After screening many potential adopters and feeling a sense of lost hope for finding the right home for his needs, Jenn and Brock seemed to fall from the sky into our laps. Jenn and Brock fell in love with MacGyver and saw him for all of his wonderful qualities. That being said, they also understood the path MacGyver has been through thus far and were willing to do whatever it took to get this boy a forever home! We were extremely lucky that Jenn and Brock live so close to my home where MacGyver was being fostered. Since we live so close to each other, I am looking forward to seeing MacGyver again soon for grooming, training, pet sitting, and more fun! Congratulations McGuyver!!!

A Oden

We had to say goodbye to our little boy Oden (being held by his Dad) today but we know that he is going to a wonderful home with his new mom, dad and SAYR alumni Luna. I fostered both Luna and Oden and I knew that this would be a good match. They are the same size, just a few months apart in age and have the same puppy personalities. Oden will have a nice yard to play in with Luna and will get lots of love and attention, which he deserves. Thank you Deb and Bill for opening up your hearts and home to another SAYR pup. Congratulations Oden!!!

Andrew Jackson

Jack and Bernie have been with us 6 weeks. They arrived as frighten, disheveled dogs who lacked trust and confidence. In a safe loving environment these two dogs have shown what wonderful personalities they have. They are happy, trusting and secure with us. They wake up in the morning and start wiggling their bodies, wagging their tales and Jack has started to squeal to communicate. Jack and Bernie are such good dogs and they make us so happy. We knew we could not let them go so, we're happy to say THEY HAVE FOUND THEIR FOREVER HOME.

Anakin

The little guy met his new Mom, Jana, and her Mom Kathie on St. Patrick’s Day. Jana and Kathie had traveled to Connecticut from South Jersey, arriving around 11:30 am. Anakin, Jana, and Kathie hit it off right away, with Anakin showing them around the house and the yard. Following a brief visit, many pictures, and a lunch, Anakin hopped into his car-pen for the drive home to New Jersey with his forever family. Pictured above is the Happy Family - Anakin, Jana and Kathie who is Anakin's Grandmom! Congratulations Anakin!!!

Amberr

After a very happy visit, Jo and Pat adopted Amber. They drove down from Erie PA yesterday, stayed with their daughter last night in York PA, and came this morning for the meet and greet. Pat played on the floor with Amber and she was in heaven. I think he may have worn her out which is good for the trip home. Hopefully, she will sleep part of the way home. Jo had her attention with the treats and toys she brought. I'm so happy for her, I believe she will receive all the love and attention she truly deserves. She's a special, perfect little girl. It was hard and sad to let her go. Congratulations Amberr!!!
