James and Dianne were in the area visiting at The Highground.  They mentioned to staff there thay they had recently lost their Black Lab 'Duke'.  They were told they just had to come visit our Shelter, where they were lucky enough to find "Pearl".  Pearl had just come in as a stray that day, but they came back a week later to pick her up.  Now called "Lucy", she was exactly the match they were looking for!

Jean and Ronald had lost their Shepherd Ali a month ago, and knew it was time to find a new friend.  They liked Shepherd mixes as are wonderful companions, have great personalities, and are easily trained.  They really wanted to adopt a dog from a Shelter, and little "Sadey" was just what they had in mind.  We know the little cutie has brought lots of love and fun to their home.

Serena and Brian had recently lost their Boxer Rex, and were looking for a new family companion.  They love Boxers and knew that Santeen's happy personality would be a good match for their family.  Santeen joins two 'siblings', Alex and Sean.  They were planning lots of walks in the park for Santeen and her new loving family.

Sherri had recently lost two of her cats to old age, and had decided she was finally ready to add a new member to her family.  She came to the Shelter with her daughter Marissa (center) and Megan (left) and met all of our kitties, but it was little "Amir" that seemed to call out 'Adopt Me!' from his cage.  Sherri just couldn't resist that, and knew he was the kitten meant to go home with her.

Ann Marie had recently lost her beloved cat 'Oscar' to cancer, so her friend Gus wanted to do something special and get her a new kitty friend.  They came to visit CCHS and fell in love with little "Ramona" of our Happy Feet Kittens.  Ann Marie had previously adopted her dog 'Foxy' from our Shelter (who also came back to visit!), so we knew that Ramona would have a great home filled with lots of love!

JoAnn and Bernd were spending time at their vacation home and visiting friends in the area when they stopped in at CCHS.  They had recently lost their dog 'Sunny', and wanted to see the dogs we had available for adoption.  "Croc" caught their attention, as he was quiet, attentive, and just the right size.  Not to mention, he was also really cute!  We've heard back that he is doing great in his new home.  He has met his three cat 'siblings' and everyone is getting along well!

Jodi found "Charley" when she was looking at dogs on our website.  It took her a few days to get permission from her landlord, but soon she knew that Charley was going to be hers.  She had plans to be gone over Memorial Day weekend, but surprised us all when she stopped in to get Charley instead.  We've already heard back the Charley is doing great.  He's a well-mannered boy, except that he likes to steal socks!!

Ashley and James came to the Shelter in search of a new companion, and fell in love with little "Violet".  She had just the personality they were looking for, plus they couldn't resist her cute face!  Violet was very happy to find a great new home where she'll be the center of attention.

Donna and her daughter Brionna met "Trillium" when they came to CCHS as part of a tour group.  They knew that the little cutie was something special, in spite of the terrible shape her coat was in. Luckily we were able to have her professionally groomed by a very nice member of our Humane Society, so she was looking her best for her new home.  Now called "Ginger", she is getting along great with her new friend 'Maya', and has even gone to visit at Brionna's school!

Judy and Terry came to the Shelter to meet some of our dogs, and ended up falling in love with "Flicka".  She was just the size and breed they were looking for, plus she was a little sweetie!  Now called 'Katie', she is doing a very good job keeping the squirrels out of her new yard, learning new commands, and going for lots of walks.  Sounds like she found a perfect new home!

Tom and Nadine just knew that "Kiku" had that special something.  They had previous experience with Huskies, and very much liked the breed.  They could see that Kiku was also very loving and knew she'd be a good match with their daughter Samantha.  We've already seen pictures of Kiku in her new home, and she looks very comfortable sleeping on the couch!

Daidri had seen little "Mumble" at our Adoption Fair, and just knew the little sweetie had to come home with her.  Mumble had a birth defect where he was missing some of his toes on one of his front feet.  But Daidri said that just made her love him all the more!  We're so happy that such a special kitten found a special home!

Stacy and her children Shawna, Nate and Riley had wanted to get a cat for a while, and "Peanut Brittle" was the lucky kitty they chose.  They wanted an adult cat with an established personality that would adjust to their family.  They felt that Peanut Brittle was just the sweetest kitty we had at the Adoption Fair, and were thrilled to take their new friend home that day!

"Garth" had been at our Shelter for six months waiting for his new family to find him.  He finally got lucky when Douglas saw him online and knew he was the dog he had been looking for.  Now called "Lucky", he will be going on walks to the river nearby and also spending weekends on his family's horse farm.  We're so happy that he finally got the great home he was waiting for!

Everybody said "KayC" was just the cutest puppy they'd ever seen.  Crystal (from left), Deb and Max certainly aren't going to argue with that!  They already had two miniature Schnauzers, Elfradoe and Ellie, and wanted another small dog as a playmate for Ellie.  KayC was just the right size and age, and was soon on his way home to join his new family!

Kayla had recently started volunteering at CCHS, and her heart couldn't resist "Neeko".  Neeko had been at the Shelter for a very long time waiting to find a new home.  His turn finally came when Kayla's Dad, Larry, came to CCHS to meet Neeko and agreed he was the perfect dog for their family.  We couldn't be happier that Neeko finally got the happy ending he so deserved!

Leah and her daughters Heaven and Riley were looking for a family pet and found a very special dog in "Sable".  Sable had suffered a broken leg as a puppy and it had not been cared for when it happened.  As a result she will always limp, but that didn't stop her new family from quickly falling in love with her!

Sean and Beth felt the time was right to find a companion for their Golden Retriever 'Sadee', as well as their children Brandon and Ashton.  Their vet suggested they look into rescuing a dog, and they found our 'Star Trek' puppies online.  They were delighted to be selected to adopt "Uhura", who has now been renamed 'Roxy'.  Sadee came along to make sure it was a good choice, and she was happy to approve the adoption!

"Deanna" was part of our 'Star Trek' litter of puppies, and she was the one everyone wanted!  After sifting through a lot of applications, Tammy and Cory and their children Allison and Kevin were the lucky ones selected to adopt her.  They thought she was just adorable, and especially liked that she had been raised with a foster care family around children.  Tammy works from home, so she will be able to spend lots of time with her new puppy!

Jeanette and Peter are long-time Trekkie fans, so a litter of 'Star Trek' puppies seemed very special when they saw them on PetFinder!  They wanted to enrich their family by including a dog, and knew their children, Blair, Andrew and Elise, could learn a lot about responsibility and unconditional love by having a dog.  Little "B'lanna" is looking forward to lots of walks with her new family, not to mention lots of playtime, too!

We were all excited when Jody and Christopher and their son Gregory applied to adopt two of our 'Star Trek' puppies.  Having been raised with a foster family, the puppies had a great temperament and were just what they were looking for.  The foster family was especially happy that the two puppies got to stay together.  "Spock" and "Janeway" (now called 'Zanie') join two cats, Macker and Lester.  We've heard back that they are doing great in their new home!

Dawn saw our kitty "Poppins" at our Adoption Fair, but unfortunately was in a rush to get to a wedding where she was a photographer.  She still knew that Poppins was the kitty she wanted to add to her family, so she sent her son John to pick her up at the Shelter. John was very gracious and agreed to have his picture taken with their new kitty!

Josh liked "Docker" as soon as he met her, as she seemed very friendly and playful.  It was finally time for Josh to have his own pet as he was living on his own, and Docker was just the companion he was looking for.  Docker is now enjoying lots of playtime with all of her new toys!
