Kya

Kya has come a long way!!! Our eyes first met on June 13th, 2009. She was definitely shy and nervous, but she came right over and gave me kisses. Before the decision was made she had to meet the man of the house - Sparky. Sparky is a 9 year old shepard/lab/spitz mix. Kya passed inspection - both tails wagged; sniffs were exchanged in all of the embarrassing parts and that was it. Kya had a hard life before she came to live with us. She had been abused - she was scared at most anything and not very trusting. In the past 5 months, she has been showered with love and affection and has responded fantastically. She has wild runs, smiles huge smiles, will not leave my side, sleeps everywhere Sparky does - right next to him butt to butt - bottom line is she is AMAZING. She has added years to Sparky's life. In February of this year, I lost my 14 year old dog named Ming. Sparky's buddy for his whole life. Sparky was in a depressed state & so was I. Then Kya came into the family and WOW, she has spiced things up nicely. Sparky lost weight and the springs are back in his legs; his eyes are bright and shiny again. A little competition has proved wonders in his life. Thank you Wag on In Rescue for what you do. Thanks to all the people involved in getting Kya to her forever home with us. I don't know all of you but thanks so very much. Special thanks to Jody who was there on adoption day. Michele Pool

Xena

We adopted Sam from you on Aug. 31, 2008. She is awesome! We have 2 other dogs and they all do well together. Sam is a very loving and fun part of our family. She was the first female my husband and my grown kids ever had. Tom, James, and Janet all turned to jello when it came to Sam, she can do no wrong. I always recommend you for adoptions. I did the dna test on Sam and she is a boxer-westie mix. Our poodle is Max (5 yrs old), and Taylor is a italian greayhound mix (8 yrs old). Taylor was on petfinder and in a vet office with no picture online. His owners did not have the time needed for him.We went site unseen and adopted Taylor from the Woodbridge Animal Shelter. We wanted to update you as to our family.

Wally

Well here we were, an experienced foster home, when this little whipper snapper named Wally came into our home with his three brothers and sisters. Well this little guy picked my husband to climb into his lap and kiss up to big time. Well he managed to wrap my hubby right around his paw, and when it was time to adopt him out I heard, "we better hold off on his adoption". Huh??? So Wally is now my husbands dog. He is renamed Stimpy and just started agility. We hope when he's grown up that he can do lots of fun stuff like agility, rally-o, pet therapy.... yes he has an active future ahead of him. What a smart boy to win over the man....

Wally

Hi Linda - Wally is now known as "Winston" and has been a more than rewarding blessing to our little family unit. I will forward you a picture soon. Winston has been a hit at "Yappy Hour" at the Wonder Bar in Asbury. He and I take walks and runs on the beach there at least once a week. I have nicknamed him "Mr. Waggie Tail" because he is such a happy boy and the tail just keeps going and going,. Please send Michele (at Wag on Inn) my warmest regards. I think of her often. Sincerely, Suzanne and Winston

Hi Linda, Hanzel, now known as "Jeter" (as in Derek Jeter) is fitting in very well. He has a great disposition and is wonderful with my kids. He's pretty smart and well behaved too. Everyone who meets him falls in love, and I pass along the information for Wag On Inn every chance that I get. Soon as I have a chance, I will get a picture of Jeter with his new family and upload it to you.
