Linus's first day home

I came to Paradise rescue to look at an available female puppy.We were all set for a female, we'd had her name picked out for months!! Once my eyes fell on her brother my heart was his!! I couldn't stop looking at him. I took a contract to fill out while taking time to think. 3 1/2 hours later I dropped off my contract to getr approved to take a puppy, not knowing for sure which it would be. I went back to see them again, trying to tell or remind myself that I didn't want a male. As soon as I bent down, he came to me and stayed right at my feet. My best friend and I just laughed because it was as if he chose me too!! I thought my kids would still want the female. So I took them to see which puppy they would want, and they both picked him!! I couldn't believe it.
He is a perfect addition to our family! We love him soooo much!! I had been praying that the Lord would lead us to the puppy He wanted us to have so that I'd know it would be a perfect fit!! I believe with all my heart that He did just that!! We planned on a medium size female, but God knows better!!
I look forward to keeping on touch here with our family as it continues this awesome journey available thanks to Paradise Animal Rescue!!

Joe-Joe

After seeing Joey's picture on Paradise Animal Rescue groups facebook page I knew I had to inquire. I read that he was 7 years of age and this worried me. Most people who adopt are looking for puppies or for young dogs. So, I knew it would be a challenge getting Joey adopted out. I discussed it with my husband and we just knew what we had to do. I made an appointment with his lovely foster mom Diana and he came to my house to meet us and our little dog Darla. Things went well that day and we decided to give him a forever home.

After taking Joey to his new home it was clear he was happy. He made himself right at home!! It was if he belonged there. He's very chill, cool and collective. He has to be at my side at all times... he loves to cuddle and just be as close as possible. Joey loves walks and car rides with his new sister.

We are so happy to have Joey in our lives and we have tons of love to share with him.

Thank you to Paradise Rescue, DIana-Foster Mom and Debbie Irwin for helping.

Wally

We have had Wally for over a year now and we are very thankful that he has came into our lives. The experiance we had with Paradise Animal Rescue was great! You can tell that they really care about the animals and we are so glad we adopted him. Our dog Lucky and Wally are the best of friends.

The Anderson Family.

Pixie

Last May, my husband and I started discussing getting a new young cat so that our other young cat Penny would have a companion and would maybe leave Psych, our elder cat alone. Psych has had a lot of health issues and we were starting to worry that we were going to lose her soon.

So I started looking around and talking to people and heard about Paradise Animal Rescue. I checked out their website and saw this adorable little kitten face staring up at me. I showed my husband and he said to go check her out.

I fell in love immediately with Pixie (her name at the rescue was Adalia but we ended up renaming her because she had such a little pixie face). She cuddled right in and gave me that look that said "Yes, YOU are my human."

We couldn't bring her home right away because she was so small and she took a long time getting up to 2 pounds so that we could finally get her.

Pixie has settled right in at home, best friends with Penny now (although they are extremely jealous of each other at times and definitely have THEIR own humans they don't like to share with each other). She's very sociable with friends and family that come to visit us, and I know a lot of that is because of the wonderful care that the volunteers at Paradise gave her. They taught her at her youngest age that humans were safe and would not hurt her.

Thank you Paradise for taking in this little girl when she was so tiny and keeping her safe until we were able to find her. Pixie is happy, healthy, and a wonderful addition to our fur-family.

Dumplin

I was adopted by my forever family in October. They didn't even know they wanted a dog until they met me. We met at a school event and when they came to visit me at the shelter, I just knew this was my chance. I showed off a little, did some of my best tricks, and gave plenty of kisses. It worked! When they brought me home, however, I soon realized I had a lot of training to do. I am their first family dog and I knew I'd have to be patient with them. They started by changing my name to Copper. I think it fits me nicely, don't you? I had to learn how to trust this new family of five, but more importantly, the true ruler of this roost: Coco the cat! They bought me yummy food, bones to chew on, and nice cozy beds to sleep in. The kids love to play tug of war with me and teaching me tricks. I can sit, lay down, roll over, shake, walk, and dance. Yes...dance. Cutely, I stand on my two hind legs and spin around like a ballerina. My family loves this! I think I might be
starting school soon, just like my kids. They say I will learn o-b-d-yents, whatever that means. Thank you Paradise Animal Rescue for helping me find my family.
Love and sloppy kisses,
Copper

Thor

We ve been looking to get a new family member for a couple of years. We ve looked at several rescues and just didnt find the right fit for us. We stopped in at Paradise on our way home one day and met Thor. His name is a perfect fit with our other dog Zeus. My wife,(Beth) young son(Aiden) and my self (Jason) all got along great with him. We visited some more and got the paper work to fill out to adopt him. We went home over the wknd pretty sure that we wanted to adopt him. I came by on monday to drop off the paperwork and was disappointed to see that they werent open. So on tuesday Zeus and I went back up with our paperwork and to introduce Thor to Zeus and see how they got along. It all went well and the date was set to pick Thor up and bring him home! He has made a good adjustment in the last couple days to our home. But like any new pet there are growing pains and he has had his timeouts..lol...but he has impressed us with how good and well behaved he is.He will just get
better and better. We love him and are glad he is with us now.

Madison

I adopted Madison five years ago. She has been a blessing to our family. I was volunteering at PAR when a lady brought her in and said that she could not keep her. I decided I was going to foster her and than I adopted her. She is so funny and knows so many tricks. We all just love her.
