Right before Bones was adopted, another long time resident of our shelter was also adopted. Her name is Chrissy and she is a gorgeous german shepherd. She was waiting a year and a half for her forever home.Chrissy was a challenge to place because she didnt take to strangers right away. She just had to be introduced slowly and then she was absolutley fine. She is very smart, liked most other dogs, was affectionate and playful. She has so many good qualities, she just needed someone to give her a chance!And we found them or they found us rather through Zootoo and they just fell in love with Chrissy. There was one little problem though. They lived out in Colorado! We spoke with them extensively over the phone and everyone agreed they seemed like the perfect match for Chrissy.We made arrangements to fly Chrissy out to Colorado but we had to cancel the flight because the temperatures were too cold to fly an animal. Then two of our dedicated volunteers decided to take a road trip. Cold temperatures were not going to stop Chrissy from getting a home! They drove her all the way from New York City to beautiful Colorado in January. They said Chrissy was great during the whole trip and when they got there, an amazing thing happened. Chrissy warmed up to her new family much more quickly than she has ever warmed up to anyone. It was meant to be... Chrissy just knew she was home.Every night when I go to sleep I am thankful that dogs like Chrissy and Bones are finally in a loving home... To me, every dog is worth saving. There is never a reason to give up on them. Chrissy and Bones are proof!BIG THANK YOU TO PATTI AND JOHN WHO DROVE CHRISSY ALL THE WAY TO COLORADO!!! And a big thank you to everyone who so lovingly cared for Chrissy while she was with us at our shelter. Many volunteers sat with her in the runs, played fetch, took her to the parks, beaches and training classes, advertised for her etc. Thank you, thank you, thank you! And a big thank you to Chrissy's new family who gave her the home that she deserved!
