This has been a long, exhausting, fulfilling, fun day at SAR. Thank you to all who made this amazing adoption weekend possible:
Christy and her Ernesto for delivering the 2 white Xmas special, Meghan and Allie, to their wonderful foster home and for always being there for everyone, 2 legged and 4 legged alike.
Jackie for doing the trek yet again to make sure the pups sleep in warm loving homes tonight and for the amazing work she does day in and day out, what would I do without you Jackster!
Yoshika, oh Yoshika, my dear sweet crazy as I am Yoshika for running SAR up north with so much success, dedication and pride, for putting the dogs first always and for being you period
Danielle for all she does up north, schlepping non stop with home visits and adoptions and fostering, we are so happy to have you on board.
To our amazing team of walkers, socializers, care takers, starting with my one and only pal Kari who never says no to a trip to the kennel, to fabulous Laura for being so dedicated and covering my butt every time with these early morning appointments, and to all of you volunteers and dedicated foster homes who make it all happen, Stacy, Melissa, Suzanne, Carie, Gail, Jennifer, Jamie, Tricia, Jody, Celeste and Alexis, Dan and the boys, Chris, Helen, Lisa, Virginia, Denise, Christine, Genevieve and her folks... I know I am forgetting some, please forgive me it is late.
Finally to the one and only queen of the kennel MaryAnn for being so generous with her time and so passionate about all these precious souls. You are theeee BEST, Missy!
And of course let's not forget the best adopters any rescue could ever wish for, without any and all of you, none of this would be possible.
Pictures will follow shortly but all in all this weekend, 11 pups are sleeping in a fabulous home tonight: Hoss, Jack, Belle, Ryder said goodbye to windy Southern California and Hello to the Bay Area, Captain, CJ and Brandy went home today, Max is in a new foster home, stay tuned, as are Meghan and Allie, Ivy is already a pro at the home situation, she was the first adoption of the weekend Friday night, and Jax and Brutus who will be home shortly after the dreaded visit to Dr Sam for you know what.... And of course Queen Julia went into her foster on Wednesday, all in all, not too shabby folks!
