Success Stories
One of the greatest joys at the shelter is when one of our animals are given a home of their own. Yes, many of us get attached to our guys & gals, but nothing makes us happier than to hear how wonderful things are going in their new lives. Below are just a few stories we've received. If you would like to share your successful adoption story, please send an email with your story & photo. So many peoples' lives are fulfilled because of the love and companionship of their adopted shelter animal.

"I adopted Lucy on Dec. 13th. Lucy was abandoned at a park, tied to a tree. Why or how anyone could do that I just don't understand. As you can see, Lucy is a beautiful, smart, lovable, gentle dog. She gets along great with our cat Bubbus and she just loves our 3 yr.old granddaughter. I am so happy that we got the opportunity to bring this wonderful dog home. She has enriched our lives so much. Thank you Action for Animals, your care and concern for all of the animals in your care is so apparent. And thank you Lucy!!!" Adopted by Nancy

"On July 27, 2003 (buddy day) we came home with Leroy and changed his name to Buddy. We are nuts about this dog. He has become our child, our best friend. Everyone who meets him comes away from the experience charmed by him. Thank you, AFA for keeping our dog until we got there to adopt him." Adopted by Pamela McKlveen

"We adopted Ricky on Dec. 16, 2003 after losing our beloved dog, Alex. Ricky has helped to fill that lonely spot in our hearts and home. I am glad to have been able to give Ricky the loving home that he deserves. Thanks for taking care of him for the 4 months he was at the shelter!" Adopted by Anne McDonald

"We came to AFA on Jan. 3, 2004 from Hagerstown, MD and adopted Buffy (she was worth the trip!). She has brought so much love and joy to us. She was chained to a tree for 5 years. She has now turned into a lap dog, sleeps in our bed and gives hugs & kisses all the time. We just wanted to share our joy with you and that this was one happy ending for one special lady. We should have a changed her name to Happy because she smiles all the time." Adopted by Greg & Peggy Keefer
