"Happy
Homes"
 |
 |
| Humane
Association Friends,
I thought I should finally send you a note and some pictures
of Snoopy. Snoopy is very happy here. Her tail hasn't stopped
wagging since the day after I brought her home. Snoopy and
my other dog Mitzie love to play together. They play long
and hard. Most times in our house it sounds like a herd of
elephants stampeeding though it. They also love to take naps
together as one of the pictures shows. I am so happy I made
the trip to Eau Claire. It makes me shudder to think that
I almost left without even seeing her.

We
all adore Bud!
He
is the perfect complement to our family. He is a very happy
dog too - seven people to pay attention to him, plenty of land
to romp and a lake. He is a thing of beauty when he is leaping
through the woods! |

To all of the Animal Lovers at the Eau
Claire County Humane Association:
I cannot tell you how much Ellie has added to our lives since
we’ve adopted her. She has brought out already close
family CLOSER by all the activities that we do together with
Ellie. My oldest son, who is autistic, has developed in so
many positive ways – a sense of ownership, responsibility,
a better sense of nurturing & instinct, touch and sensory
skills – all because of the love from and towards Ellie.
She is a member of our family and goes EVERYWHERE with us.
We love her so much & feel that God has brought her to
us by the coincidental meeting at your shelter. She is happy,
healthy, and loved.

Abby
(Tubby) is doing just great!
We
could not be more blessed with any other pet. She is so well
trained that it is remarkable. She follows commands so well.
We took her to visit family on Saturday for Thanksgiving.There
were 16 plus people there, and she was so good. Just as if
she had always been there. And of course, everyone fell in
love with her too. |
She
is still sneezing a bit, but seems to be getting better.
She goes to a local groomer tomorrow to help us with the
hair on her back legs.
Thanks again for your part in helping the ECCHA take care
of these animals. We are very grateful to have Abby in
our family.

To
the Eau Claire County Humane Association:
Harley is the nicest, sweetest pet I’ve ever known
and we’re having so much fun together. Every time
he walks, he gets so many compliments about how pretty
and good-looking he is. Thanks for blessing my life with
him.

Big
Mamma
(formerly “Harriet”)
has
been a perfect animal since she arrived. She has never once
had an accident in the house, run off, shown aggression,
or anything. |
|
I
was told that she was 4.5 years old, but my vet says she is
only a year old, which I can believe. Since
I got her she has gained ten pounds. She is very spoiled,
and she gets all the toys and bones she wants. I am so happy
to have had the opportunity to adopt her.I am surprised that
she was in your shelter as long as she was, and I am very
glad to have her.
Thank you all for the work that you do to save unwanted animals.
We all need a home and people to love and to care for us;
and you do that for those helpless animals until they find
a permanent home. Big Mama will always have a home with me,
and a bed to sleep in. Thanks again |

Dear
Humane Association staff,
We have changed her name from Snoopy to Greta. She is
a beautiful dog with a gentle spirit! She
has been overwhelmed with love from our family and friends
(I think she kinda likes us too!) She is a very intelligent
dog and we are anxious to train her to be a great house
pet.
|
| Her
hunting instincts are very evident, but I see no "hunting
trips" in her future only keeping the mole population
in the back yard to a minimum! We are truly enjoying Miss
Greta. Thank you for caring for her while she was orphaned! |
Just
wanted you to know
that Sandy and Riley are doing great! They love to play outside
together and Sandy loves to curl up at my feet and sleep.
They
still have some food/toy issues, but we don't leave them alone
with food or toys....
|
|
| We
LOVE Sandy, and I think I'm safe in saying that she loves
US!!! She always greets us with a ton of kisses and little
"wiggles" from her rear end and tail.Her
and Riley are now known as "kissin' siblings" cuz
they are always licking each other's face. It is pretty darn
cute!Thank
you for providing us the opportunity to adopt such a wonderful
dog; She is everything we hoped for and more. |

Early
in August we visited your shelter
in search of a mature cat to become apart of our family. He
or she was to be a gift to my husband and me for our 47th
anniversary from our son. I
did not choose the cat, he chose me, and what a happy choice
that turned our to be.
|
|
His name, that you kind people had chosen
for him, was "Chase ". But
we did not feel that it quite suited him, so we renamed him
"Toby ".We tried a number of names, but that was
the name he responded to, so it stuck. We probably should
have named him Elvis, since he thinks he is King of our domain.
When we brought him home, he was a little bit afraid for about
2 hours, and then he marched in and took charge. He is allowing
us to stay in HIS home and take care of him and feed
him. In return he gives us a lot of affection and pleasure.
He is just a wonderful cat, and we absolutely adore him. Thank
you for taking care of him as long as you did so we could
find each other. |
| Willie
was an 8 year old stray
who had lived at the shelter for more than 6 weeks. As a volunteer
there, I would observe Willie everytime the door opened with
visitors. He would always stand up, come to the front of his
kennel, perk up his ears, and wag his tail. Everyone just
walked past him; he was old and not very handsome, but he
never gave up. After watching him for weeks, I decided to
take him home for just a weekend. That was 5 months ago. He
has become a wonderful member of our family, joining his yellow
Lab sister Lucy. He is well-behaved, loving, and a joy to
us all. |

From
the shelter workers:
David’s
story is awesome. He had been at the shelter for over 2 months.
He was so sweet and we couldn’t figure out why no one
was adopting him. I guess he was just waiting for this family
to come and get him. |
From
David's new family:
To all the David Lovers:
Hi to all of you that used to take care of the big German
Shepherd David. I just thought I’d let you all know
how David is doing. We changed his name to Rocky as soon as
he arrived at his new home. We all love him a lot. He is one
of the family now and thinks he is a cow. He is out in the
barnyard playing with the cattle all the time. He has a nice
doghouse but sleeps at night with our 4month old stud colt.
Today I got home from work to do chores and he had carried
his dog dish out to the barn by the little colt. He is a very
smart dog. He meets us at the door when we get home from work.
He has the whole run of the farm and thinks he is a king.
I think he is very happy with his home and he gets a lot of
attention. The grandkids are here all the time and they spoil
him rotten. Before it got cold they’d play hide in seek
with him. He just makes you smile even when you’re having
a bad day. Just thought we’d let you know how he is
doing. |
