My Nonprofit Reviews

As we all know, losing a pet can be very difficult, especially when you're a senior like myself. After losing my pet dog to a serious illness 5 months ago, I thought I could call it quits with having dogs at my age. The plans to give up having a dog in my life again just shattered my heart, and soon I realized I couldn't let that happen.

After changing my mind I became serious about bringing a new dog into my life, but I had no idea where to begin looking for that perfect dog just for me. My first visit was on the internet at Adopt A Pet. In about 15 minutes of randomly looking at all the dogs, I found a picture of the sweetest looking little Rat Terrier named Tipper being cared for by D&R Rescue. Right away I contacted Karen to explain my needs for finding the perfect match for me. She was so understanding and gave me information about Tipper that helped me so much. I stopped thinking about being a senior and just get on with life with a brand new little friend who needed a home as much as I needed him.

After the application for adoption was approved, Karen made the meeting time speedy and painless. Not only was Tipper the perfect match for me, he was more wonderful than I could have imagined. Additionally, Karen had already had him current with shots, grooming, teeth cleaning, and even micro chipped with a lifetime enrollment with Home Again. We went home with toys, collar, leash and a packet of great information on how to best take care of Tipper. I was very impressed with Karen's dedication and hard work. She made my senior blues go away, and brought happiness into not only my life, but Tipper's life too. I'm forever grateful for having this experience. Tipper actually makes me feel young again. I would most defiantly recommend D&R Rescue. You won't be sorry you did!!!
