Maddie

"Hello! I'm writing to say Thank You for contacting NRGRR regarding Maddie and especially to the volunteer who drove Maddie half-way so that Henry could pick her up & deliver her to us. We had agreed to Foster Maddie upon her arrival to Raleigh. Well, in less than 24 hours, we informed Jen Webster that she was no longer available for adoption since we couldn't fathom the idea of losing her. We adopted Patrick from NRGRR in March and he instantaneously let us know that this was his new best friend and the 2 have been inseparable ever since she arrived! They are adorable together since they are about the same size, age, weight and color -- actually, we get them mixed up when they are tumbling around together. Here's a picture of Maddie & Patrick, Maddie is on the left. THANKS so much to everyone involved in your wonderful organization. You are making a huge difference and have forever changed our lives for the better here in Raleigh. Wishing you continued success in placements," Meribeth Howlett

Addie

Greg Vick writes: "Here are some pictures of our puppy we adopted. This is Addison "Addie" Vick. She's fitting in quite well, loves attention as well as giving it, and to this point, and house training is going like a breeze so far. She had a checkup with Dr. Bradshaw on Wednesday, and Wanda said she believes she is 11-12 weeks old. She is so well behaved, it's unbelievable. I had several people ask where we got her while waiting Wednesday and were there any more, so I hope and pray someone has or is on the way to get Sis."

Barney

"Sorry it has taken me a while to email. Barney is doing wonderful! He is a wonderful house dog, but also enjoys and has found his place with the two bigger dogs outside. We adopted Barney on a Saturday, he seemed so sad at the shelter, you could tell he wanted a family. He perked up some when we brought him home, but would scream (not howl) when we had to leave him to go to the store or run errands. He was so scared to be left. The vet said that his hair loss and bad teeth were just from malnutrition. We found a high calorie canned dog food that he loved and got him eating. His hair has grown back on his belly and ears. His teeth have strengthened and he is a health happy dog. As a matter of fact while I am typing this he is playing chase with my kids through the house. He has learned that even when we leave, we always come back so the screams has been replaced with disapproving barks. He is a great dog and a wonderful addition to our family." Thank You Samantha Cushing

Bella

Cathy Parker of Suffolk writes: "I just wanted to let you know that my little Bella is doing great. After a bath and a trip to the vet she's healthy and beautiful and plays just as hard as she can until she collapses on the closest person’s lap to purr herself to sleep. I named her Bella because it means “beautiful” and it fits her to perfection. When I first brought her home my older kitten would chase her and jump on her, but now she chases him. Thanks!"
