Mrs. Beasley's Happy Ending

I adopted Miss Bea (formerly Mrs. Beasley) about 5 months ago, and she is doing very well. She has had to adjust to living with 2 cats (1 young, 1 senior), and she is doing so with flying colors! She pretty much ignores them except when the younger cat taps her on the head when she is sleeping.  That provokes a well-deserved growl, and Chloe takes off!  Doesn’t happen often, but Miss Bea would prefer it didn’t happen at all! The Vet and his staff love her and call her “happy girl,” because she is so wiggly and happy to greet everyone. We take several walks each day, and she enjoys greeting any neighbors and dogs we meet along the way.  Recently, we spent a week at the beach and included my son’s 2 springer spaniels. Miss Bea loved running in the water and taking walks with her cousins. Thank you to CSAC for all the work you do and allowing me to adopt her. She is a joy to have!

Monty's Happy Ending

Monty, aka Monster Mash, was welcomed into our home on May 17th 2015 as our foster dog after driving half way to pick him up in Bedford, PA from Maxine who graciously drove the other half way to meet up with us. From the moment my husband & I met him, we knew he probably wouldn’t be a foster dog for very long. 

I must say that I was very worried that things wouldn’t work out because Monty was blind and we had no experience with a blind dog, but after 24 hours of Monty being in our home, we knew he wasn’t leaving. All the worrying and what-ifs just went away. He adapted to us and we adapted to him. He had found his forever home with us because no other family could possibly love him as much as we already did. He was our boy and we could not let him go!

Monty is a funny dog, with so many quirky ways about him. He LOVES food, treats, his dog beds and of course, he loves all of the attention and love he gets from everyone in our home. We have two teenage daughters that absolutely adore him, and we also have a 13 year old cocker spaniel girl named Jessie that enjoys Monty’s company very much. They get along very well and have become quite the pair! Jessie is completely deaf and Monty is blind, so together they complete each other.  About a year and ½ ago we lost our other cocker, Sammie Jo (CSAC Alum) to cancer. She passed away about 2 weeks before her 14th birthday. Ever since we lost her, our home just wasn’t the same and Jessie really missed the companionship of another dog, so Monty has been a big blessing to our entire family. 

I’d like to thank Judy for alerting me that there was a blind senior boy that needed a foster home.  Judy, Monty has been the perfect addition to our family and we couldn’t be more grateful to you & CSAC. I would also like to thank Maxine and her husband for driving Monty to Bedford to meet us.  And one last thank you to Janni for reassuring me that blind dogs are amazing and adjust well. Janni, blind dogs really do rock! Thanks everyone!

Coco's Happy Ending

Here are some of the pictures we took of Stella (formerly Coco) on our recent trip to a cottage in Haliburton, Ontario. We travel here every year and are thrilled that Stella loved cottage life.  In the morning she couldn't get down to the lake fast enough to listen and look for the loons. She was a hit with all of our friends who now want to clone her. She's such a good girl!  Stella absolutely loved hanging out by the lake and had her afternoon nap in the boathouse. She has the sweetest most gentle disposition and her playful personality is coming out more and more. Stella loves her stuffies and can often be found prancing around the house showing them off.  She's even stolen a few from her best friend Cadence (our 9 year old daughter) who doesn't mind a bit. As you can tell we just adore her and look forward to spoiling her with attention and belly rubs for the rest of her life. The final pic is of Cadence (wearing my old CSAC sweatshirt from 2000) demonstrating Stella's favourite form of attention, her belly rubs.  Thank you for all of the time and effort you devote to giving these beautiful souls the life they deserve.

Kasey's Happy Ending

I have Kasey, a puppy mill dog. She is the second dog from CSAC. I had Amber, a sweet and gentle little dog. I was so lonely after I lost her so I started looking on the adoptable dogs. I inquired about Kasey and John and Chris,who were fostering her, brought her for me to see. It will be a year in October that I adopted her. She is a great little dog and good for me. She likes to ride in the car, and we go for a walk 3 times a day. She likes when my daughter brings her dog Toby (he's a CSAC dog too). She did well with house training. I hope more people will adopt these dogs.

Precious's Happy Ending

We love her to pieces. She is so smart, she taught us how she likes to play fetch and play tug of war. She has her very special dog puppy (toy) she plays with and licks it & loves it like it is her own. She comes to us when she needs to go out (or when she wants to go out to play). She does rule our home and we love it, she is so much fun. Our home is much happier with her here. She has her own pillow in our bed (king) and sleeps right beside us, sort of above our head.

Joey's Happy Ending

Joey has fitted into our family beautifully.  He loves to do whatever we're doing and is just the happiest little guy.  His tail never stops wagging.  He loves to go out in the car, he loves to go for walks, he loves his treats, and he loves his toys.  He even loves the cat and would very much like to play with her - a feeling which, unfortunately, is not reciprocated!  Whenever we have company he brings them all his toys and he always greets us at the door with a toy in his mouth.  He's just the sweetest little guy and we love him dearly.  He keeps us safe from the mailman and the school bus.  We'd be lost without him.  As you can see from the photo, the only thing he doesn't much care for is grooming although if we insist, he'll be pretty patient with us.  Our daughter stayed at the house while we were on vacation and fell in love with "Joseph" as she calls him.  If he ever goes missing, her house will be the first place we look!  Thanks for all you do and for helping us find Joey.  Our home is a happier place with him in it!

Lexie's Happy Ending

This is Sophie (aka Lexie) - we adopted her right before Christmas.  She had a rough start. She was turned in to CSAC with a broken hip and leg that had gone untreated for weeks.  We had just lost our five year old cocker spaniel, Mugsy, after a ten month battle with cancer. So I guess you could say, we both needed each other!!!  She is a love!!  She is happiest just being next to you chewing a bone (she has a lot!!).  We spoil her too much, and well let's just say, the vet has suggested we lay off the treats for a bit (something about needing to lose a pound or two).  Thank you to all the people who donated to her care when CSAC took her in!!  Thank you to her incredible foster parents, Chris and John who helped her heal!!!  She is doing great and we love her!!! The kids think she needs a cocker sister or brother .. So we will see :))
