🎉 CONGRATS, JOLENE! 🎉 This most precious senior just caught a flight from TEXAS to VEGAS to be with her new mommy!!! This is a home we have adopted several seniors to over the last decade, so we know Jolene is in excellent hands! Jolene was used for breeding her whole life, until she was no longer useful. She has the sweetest heart and best disposition, and we are so grateful to see her have the perfect home. We couldn't be more happy!

Thank you to ALL the volunteers who made this happy ending possible: foster mom and airport transport Lori, transport coordinator Kellye, flight angel Jim, flight coordinators Andria and Annette, corporate charity partner @southwestair, and our incredible transport partners at @swatt_transport. We are so grateful to you all!

🎉 CONGRATS, GENE SIMMONS! 🎉 Our adorable senior jawless poodle is adopted!! He was found running the streets of Huntsville for weeks before he could get caught, but was finally trapped at a homeless encampment and sent to our rescue. After he got all his medical care, he was officially cleared to fly from Texas to Pennsylvania to be with his new family. We are so excited for him!

Shout-out to all the volunteers who made this tongue-out transport possible: transporter Ray, transport coordinator Kellye, flight angel Tracy, flight coordinator Andria, the adopters, our corporate charity partner @southwestair, and our amazing transport partners @swatt_transport. We couldn't do this without y'all!!!

Yayyyy!

🎉 CONGRATS, LACI! 🎉 This adorable senior fluff came to us with Laci, after losing their owner. The girls quickly settled into foster life, and they finally were able to get adopted. Laci was deaf, but otherwise was just a loveable senior girl. She's made herself at home with her new family, and has even become quite the little beach babe!! Congrats, Laci!

Laci made the flight from Texas to Florida, thanks to a LOT of amazing volunteers: foster mom Alicia, transport coordinator Kellye, flight coordinator Andria, airport transporter Ray, flight angel Robert, corporate charity partner @southwestair, and our amazing transport partners @swatt_transport. We couldn't have done this without you!

🎉 CONGRATS, MIMI!! 🎉 This silly senior shih tzu mix came to us from a cruelty seizure, thin, severely matted, and distrustful of ALL humans. Thanks to lots of love and support in her foster home, she's healthy, well socialized and officially adopted. She took a flight from Texas to Florida to be with her new parents, and she's already fitting right in!!!

Thank you to all the folks who volunteered their time to make this flight possible: flight angel Stasia, transport coordinator Kellye, foster mom Sue, flight coordinator Andria, corporate charity partner @southwestair and our incredible transport partners at @swatt_transport. We are grateful to each and every one of you! 💛

🎉 CONGRATS, CHOMP! 🎉 This handsome chi came to us from the shelter due to being extremely fearful and having flea dermititis. He would take a long time to warm up to people, and he was always nervous at first. He is still taking time to gain confidence, but he made great progress and was cleared for adoption! This week, he made the flight from TEXAS to WISCONSIN to be with his new family!! We are so excited for him to take on this next chapter!

Thank you to everyone who made this transport possible: airport transport Becky, flight angel Tracy, flight coordinators Rini, Thomas, and Andria, transport coordinator Kellye, our corporate charity partner @southwestair, and our amazing transport partners with @swatt_transport. We are grateful for every one of you!

🎉 CONGRATS, BUSTER! 🎉 Buster aka Bubz is officially adopted!!! He made the flight from TX to MA thanks to our flight nanny Becky. He is going to live with two other of our adopted chis, so we KNOW he's getting an amazing home. Bubz was an absolute JOY to foster, but we are glad that he landed an incredible family where he will be pampered like the king he is. We love you, Bubz! Thank you @fab208nyc for giving him the best life!

🎉 CONGRATS, HABANERO! 🎉 This precious chi came to us from a hoarding situation, where she was totally in her own mind with fear. She fled from strangers and new situations, and she took months to finally be behaviorally well enough for adoption. She's not 100% yet, but thankfully her new family is committed to working with her as long as it takes!

Habanero made the flight from Texas to Colorado, where she is already settling in to her new life! We want to give a huge shout-out to everyone who volunteered to be a part of this amazing happy ending: foster mom Sue, airport transport Becky, transport coordinators Kellye and Andria, adopter Ingerid, flight angel Jillian, flight coordinators Elaine, Rini and Thomas, our corporate charity partners @southwestair, and our AMAZING transport partners @swatt_transport. It takes a dang village, y'all! 🎉

🎉 CONGRATS, LATTE! 🎉 Our longest term resident has finally gotten his forever home!!!! He made the trip from Texas to Massachusetts, to meet this INCREDIBLE family. Make sure you swipe/scroll to see just how amazing the kiddos are with him! 🥰 Latte is in absolute heaven right now, and it's thanks in large part to @moxietexasrealestate who sponsored his adoption fee months ago. We want to give a shout-out to foster mom Sue and foster dad Tom, who each got to foster Latte while in our program. They provided all the love and care until Latte could get this happy ever after.

Latte and 20+ others were found during a house fire. Firefighters showed up to put out a fire called in by a good Samaritan that happened while the owners were away, and they stumbled upon over 20 little dogs "cruelly confined" in crates filled with their own faces. As awful as the house fire was, it at least caused authorities to find out about their living situation. All got out safely and the shelter seized ownership, which is where we came into play. Our fosters did a great job rehabilitating the group to where they could be fabulous family companions. I mean....just look at Latte! This is what it's all about!

We love this so much!! Enjoy your new life, Latte!! 🎉

🎉 CONGRATS, DALIA! 🎉 We are so excited to announce she's been adopted!! This little senior was our longest resident in the program, but thanks to the incredible generosity of our friend @kellycolleran, Dalia is now in a forever home. Kelly sponsored Dalia's adoption as a way to support our program, and to spread her impact to more animals. Because Dalia's adoption fee was sponsored, she landed an INCREDIBLE home with @theadventuresoftwodoxies!! We love to see it!!

Want to help our seniors get forever homes, but not able to adopt? Sponsoring an adoption fee is a GREAT way to help! 💛

🎉 CONGRATS, LOTTIE! 🎉 This tiny senior made the flight from Texas to her new mommy in Georgia today! She came to us from a shelter with another senior chi, both in very rough shape. Lottie was very thin at just 2.7 pounds, was scared, had rotten teeth, a bum leg, and was bald from the neck down. Now, thanks to her awesome foster mom and wonderful medical care, Lottie was well enough to get a home.

We are SO GRATEFUL to everyone who VOLUNTEERED to make this happy ending possible: foster mom Sue, temp foster April, airport transporter Becky, flight carrier donor Christy, flight angel Tracy, flight coordinator Elaine, transport coordinator Kellye, corporate charity partner @southwestair and our incredible transport partners @swatt_transport. PHEW! What a fabulous crew! 🎉 Thank you to everyone!!
