HAPPY ENDINGS!
Working with a rescue puts each volunteer on an emotional roller coaster. Absolutely the "highest" and most rewarding moments come from finding a responsible, loving home for a special rescued Golden. These happy endings should be shared and celebrated.

Wenster's family sent out a note: "...We got a friend for Gertie this weekend. His name is Webster and he's a Golden Retriever that we got from Almost Heaven Golden Retriever Rescue. He's about two years old and is a very handsome dog (as you can see from the ... pictures). Gertie was a little jealous at first, but she quickly discovered that he was a great playmate and they've been romping through the house ever since. The cats have yet to get to know him!" - Rusty and Marguerite |
Duke & Maxx
Maxx and Duke's family sent us the following update: "Maxx is recovering nicely from ACL surgery that was performed about 10 days ago. He'll be back to his normal, 'I MUST investigate EVERYTHING' self soon. Duke continues to delight us all with his funny facial expressions and interaction with Maxx. This past holiday season was a big one for us all as Duke & Maxx met the rest of our family for the first time. Our grown children (3) were all home for the holidays and immediately fell in love with "the boys". Beth and I remind ourselves almost daily, how glad we are that the two wonderful pets came into our lives... A couple of months
ago Maxx won a blue ribbon at a Harrisonburg Pet Show where he
was the oldest participant in the "Rescue Dog Pet Parade"
He was quite pleased. Duke won over the hearts of many young girls,
being the heart-thob that he is." |

Grayson's Dad sent us the following update: "Just wanted to let you know that everything is going great with Grayson. He definately has some security issues- he is afraid of any enclosed area and as you mentioned- terrified of stairs. But he is settling down more everyday and becoming comfortable with his new home and learning to trust us. Grayson is playing very well with our puppy and is completely deferential to her. She takes his bone away from him and pushes him away from his food- and Grayson just considers it play. I hope all is well with you and thanks again for allowing us to adopt Grayson." - Jeff |
Carson Carson's Dad sent us these wonderful photos with an update: "We spent last
weekend with Carson in New Hampshire wherein we stayed in a cabin
on the Pemigewasett River. Carson enjoyed the outdoors and walking
along the trails and river edge. Please find the attached photographs
of Carson along with our Beagle Heidi. He seems to be doing well
and adjusting to his new home. We will send more photographs soon.
" Note from Almost Heaven: Carson's new "Mom and Dad" have experience working and living with blind dogs. We are so happy that they chose Carson to be one of their "special" furkids. He looks so happy with his new family. :) |
