Successful Adoptions...

Oreo, Jasmine, Gus, Thumper & Dusty, Ono

Oreo
Oreo is a four-year-old German Short Hair who just found his new family. This special little guy is a perfect fit for the Gulley family. Oreo has one of the sweetest spirits and he found a sweet-spirited family.

Oreo was given up by his original owner who had him since the age of seven weeks. He was released by his owner and taken to the rescue because the owner moved to a condo that did not allow dogs.

From the fist day of his arrival at MRR Oreo was confused about the new environment. In spite of being in a strange place this dog was well-behaved and wanted to please. On adoption day you could tell he was looking for his past owner… one who never would return. Oreo came to a place where he just had to trust the MRR volunteers with his future. We knew there was the right family for him but we had to be patient and wait for them to come to him.

The family came to Petsmart Adoption Day in response to a phone call about Oreo from one of our volunteers. Within a short time everyone knew that Oreo had found a new home. The Gulleys had been praying and waiting for the right dog to adopt. God answered their prayer….especially Bob’s! After the paperwork was completed it was time to shop, get an I.D. tag and pause for a few photos. Congratulations to the Gulleys!

Jasmine
This five month- old kitten and her sweetness won the heart of her new family. She is now placed in a wonderful new home.



Lucky Gus - Official Pet Therapist
The story of Lucky Gus began with his arrival at a local pet store with his four brothers and sisters. Within days all the puppies were diagnosed with distemper and were to be euthanized. Animal Assistance League intervened hoping to save all or some of the puppies. Medical treatment was begun but it was too late to save four of the puppies. One little boy survived distemper… Lucky Gus.

Thumper and Dusty
These kittens were placed in a pet carrier and dropped off at a house and abandoned by the owners. They were brought to MRR. They have been successfully adopted into a new home and look forward to a long life with their new family.



Ono
This 9-month old female Shibu Inu survived Hurricane Katrina. She was flown to California with dozens of other dogs and placed with Modjeska Ranch Rescue. After weeks of searching for the owners she was declared available for adoption. This little girl is now with a loving family and looks forward to years of love and attention from her new owners.
