Eddie aka Mike

After searching shelters for three months for just the right puppy for our household, we saw Eddie's picture on AAR's website at 10 p.m. on a Friday night and hurried out to Tomball when the shelter opened Saturday morning promptly adopted Eddie and brought him home to meet our teenage daughter, two grown female dogs, and two cats (all rescues). Our household has not been the same since! Eddie's name changed ten times in five days before we all finally agreed to call him Mike. He loves playing tag with our cat Houdini, shredding the newspapers in his crate to bury his big rawhide bone, running with the big dogs outside, splashing in his wading pool, giving kisses, and raising mayhem everywhere he goes. He is already learning his house manners and likes to give kisses to the family and to greet our guests at the door. Mike is a clown who makes us laugh every day and he is growing fast. A huge thanks to all the volunteers at AAR who rescued and cared for him. He is a precious b
oy.

Baxter Bolt mix-up ends up great

Originally was supposed to adopt Bolt, but came home with his almost identical brother, Baxter! Got him home when we received the call, but he looked so happy to be home I couldn't go back to trade him.

Billy Bob Finds a Home

We attended your adoption event in Gleanloch Farms in April and met Billy Bob. Jeff and I fell for his sweet and gentle nature. He has been a wonderful addition to our home. He loves going on walks in our neighborhood, playing with his toys and meeting new friends. Everyone that meets him loves "Red", the new name we gave him. He hardly ever barks and is always friendly to visitors. He is extremely well behaved and we feel blessed to have found him. Thank you AAR for the love and care you give the pets you find homes for.

Trudy

We adopted Trudy at PetSmart after we had to put our family dog to sleep. She has brought us a tremendous amount of love. The AAR staff volunteers were so kind and careful to find out if we were the right fit. Thank you for pairing Trudy with our family. We love her dearly and she provides unconditional love.

Ms. Sasha

AAR Volunteers were so very helpful in walking me through the process of adopting. I had never done it before but by the time I left, I was ready to take them all home. I came in to pick up SASHA and was not disappointed to find out she was still there. Chocolate Lab/Collie. She was expectantly excited from all the hustle and bustle of pets and people going in and out but I met her with her handler outside and she was as sweet as the day was long with that "pick me please Ill love you forever" look in her eyes. The ladies and gentleman were helpful, attentive, full of information and insight. They told me SASHA had been there for two months in a cage and I just had to end it that day. After I met with SASHA my only question was "what is it going to cost me to take her home." SASHA has been everything we wanted and more. LOVABLE AND A BALL OF ENERGY!!! She adopted a towel out of my closet and made it her own and there was no negotiating with her. She claimed her property and t
hat was that. She has been ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL and the wife was simply overjoyed. Ms. SASHA is wasting no time marking her territory and and adjusting wonderfully. She loves the back yard but I have found she is scared of the dark when outside. I go outside with her and she is happy as a kid on a playground. The neighbors now know that it is her back yard enter at your own risk ha ha ha. She is going to give us many years of joy and companionship and we will reciprocate it with love, affection, LOTS of toys, and trips to the ranch from time to time. She will be a travel dog when possible, and already has lots of Face Book friends! Thank you AAR for bringing hours of fun and laughter into our simple home.

Just thought everyone would enjoy seeing our love bug in his new home.

Bolt

It has been one week since we adopted Bolt. Since then he has won over the heart of everyone he meets. He absolutely loves all his toys! He has already learned how to sit and lie down. Bolt is soooo cute and he has an adorable personality to match :)
