Here’s a typical example of the outcome of a day of outreach at Petsmart. It looks like only two of the four dogs who got adoption applications on Saturday will result in adoptions.

My beautiful foster Pit bull, Tawnee, is going to a home with a really nice guy and his 12 year old Doberman. He is clearly a ‘dog person’, and I know he’ll adore her like I do. She’s such a sweet girl!
