My Nonprofit Reviews

I found the love of my life at Laura's Hope Rescue. Originally we had seen a picture on Petfinder of a small terrier type dog, mostly black with some white patches, that was at Laura's Hope Rescue and the look on the dog's face peaked our interest. This was back in 2011. We filled out an application and shortly thereafter we received a telephone call from Grace of Laura's Hope Rescue. She interviewed us over the phone and during the call, we discovered that the dog we had applied for was actually a puppy. We weren't prepared to take on the training of a puppy at that time so we continued searching for a dog. We had looked at a lot of different dogs online and gone to the local shelter as well but nothing panned out for us. One day, while we were out, we decided to drive down to Laura's Hope Rescue and see what other dogs they might have. As soon as we got out of our car and walked toward their office we saw our dog, then named "Fab" now called Shadow. When I saw him, I realized that I had seen his picture online also and had thought him a good prospect but after looking at other dogs had forgotten about him. Seeing him in the flesh brought the memory of his picture right back. I picked him up and put him in my husband's arms. My husband couldn't stop smiling. He loved him already. Because we already had an approved application on file with them, it was a simple process completing our adoption of our sweet fur baby Shadow. We were told about his stay at the shelter and his foster mom told us a little about his personality. Then we were given a folder with his information, a bag of food for him and a leash and told that if for any reason it didn't work out we had to bring him back to them. That was never even a thought in our minds. As I said in the beginning, I met the love of my life at Laura's Hope Rescue. We have continued to follow them and have referred two friends who also adopted from them. We support them when we can through fundraisers and Amazon Smile. They deserve all the help they can get to continue rescuing these beautiful babies and putting them into loving homes.
