Lucy

β€œShe is doing amazing. We did change her name to Lucy (was Nancy) because my grandma’s name is Nancy. She’s very curious and cuddly and fell in love with us immediately. She greets me so excitedly when I get home and behaves when I’m gone. She’s been eating and loves to go on walks, I walk her like 3 or 4 times a day for a while. She loves being hugged and petted and hasn’t barked at all. Thank you so much for helping us find her, she’s definitely an amazing dog and I’m excited to spoil her.”

Sunday

“We renamed Brutus to Sunday, it fits his lazy disposition a bit better. He brings so much joy into our home, we could not be happier with him!”

Daffodil

“Her favorite toy is a light blue mouse with yellow ears. The other mice are okay, but she really loves that mouse especially. She likes to sleep cuddled up either between mom and dad or at their feet. Daffodil knows she is home. And we are so lucky to share our love and lives with her.”

Maeve

“We love Maeve! She’s the perfect little sister to our Sugar!”

Panini

Bob

β€œI absolutely love my cat! I changed his name from Peep to “Bob”. His nickname is Bobby “Two-Tone” (he’s black & white) or Bobby “Sideways” (because when he plays, he runs sideways). He’s been everything I had hoped for in a cat, when he snuggled up to me in the visitor/cat room there at your facility. Perfect match!”

BIANCA

β€œBianca (aka Bonk with how much she likes to give me head bonks) has been the sweetest and most chill cat I’ve ever known. She always greets me with her soft little meows, whether its my wife and I first getting up in the morning or whenever we get home for the evening. She spends her days sleeping in my office chair while I’m away or laying next to me for belly rubs when I’m home. She also enjoys rolling around on the porch while I sit outside and enjoy the sunset. I’m extremely thankful to have Bianca in my life and very thankful for the Tulsa SPCA for having taken her in so that I had the opportunity to adopt her. She’s a wonderful kitty and our best friend.”

TOBY

β€œToby has been such an amazing addition to our family. He brings us so much joy! He has a dog sister, two human siblings, and a big back yard. He loves walks and playing fetch!”

ZOEY

β€œI just wanted to let you know that little Zoey (aka Monkey) is doing great! We were going to start her off slow by introducing her to one room at a time but she had other ideas. She decided our bedroom was a safe space almost right away and slept with us in bed the first night. By this morning the entire house belongs to her and she finally decided that she loves playing with her new toys and even played β€œfetch” with me by bringing me a toy several times in a row to throw! She’s sitting on my lap grooming herself as I write this. She’s definitively already a much loved member part of our family. Thank you so much!”

COWBOY

β€œGlen (now Cowboy) settled in perfectly. As soon as I got him home and opened the carrier he wasted no time making himself at home! I’ve never seen a cat get comfortable that quickly. He is a cuddle bug and loves to nap in the window sill, but he still finds time to play hard too! (usually at 5 am haha.)

He’s the sweetest cat and I’m so happy I found him! He doesn’t mind bath time at all, or the occasional costume (we’re getting in the halloween spirit early.) He’s the most chill cat!”

YOSHI

β€œYoshi (formerly Louie) has been the most wonderful addition to our family! His big brother Cujo is beyond ecstatic to have a play buddy. They are already best buds, running and wrestling constantly in the yard and then snuggling up together for a quick power nap before they’re back at it again. Yoshi is very soft and calm around our toddler and baby. He has the tender loving care and passion for little kids that you can’t teach, but just comes from him being a gentle soul. He needs a lot of socializing, confidence building, and good food to gain weight, but we’re very excited to watch him grow and blossom in his forever home!

MISS MOLLY

β€œMiss Molly is adjusting to us and our home perfectly! She’s the sweetest lil angel ever! She is a wonderful companion in and out of the house. We’ve taken her on walks at a nearby park by and she’s great on a leash. She absolutely LOVES squeaky toys (they gotta squeakΒ ????). Her and our cat get along very well, zero fighting. They do pay with each other, it’s adorable! She also loves to swim (we’ve taken her to Blue Hole). She’s afraid of the dark, so we keep a night light on by her bed. She’s a lover no doubt and absolutely loves cuddles! She also loves car rides anywhere! We fit right in together ❀️ ”

NALA

β€œNala is still Nala. She knows and loves her name and is doing well. She is very smart and is already house trained.

She is very happy and loves her new family.”

LUNA (AKA ANNA)

β€œAnna is doing great! My son has renamed her Luna. She is the best dog for our family, and happily accepts the affection my kids give her. Even the head locks and hugs.

β€œBalto is now Bruce and he is settling in nicely! He so sweet and gentle with our 12-year-old blind/deaf pit bull.

SAMUEL L. JACKSON

β€œSamuel L. Jackson is hilarious and happy. Chases his tail, thinks everything is his and runs off with it like a ferret. He chirps when he’s happy, and has pair-bonded with one of our other cats (a 3-year-old neutered male named Gremlin). He’s definitely a good choice for the family!”

KNOX ARGYLE TILLERY (AKA CHEWIE)

BONNIE

β€œShe is the perfect fit for our family! Bonnie and our Husky play all day! She listens really well!Β  She loves to pester our small dogs, but they are just old and grumpy. We were going to crate her when we leave, but she is so good that we don’t have to! She loves to smother us with love and love, and we love it!! She truly is the best dog we’ve ever had!”

MOCHA (AKA SYBIL)

β€œMocha, now Sybil, is fitting in perfectly and my children and I are just smitten with her. She warmed up within two days and that was that.”

GROOVIE

β€œGroovi is such a fun and goofy little girl. We have no doubt that she was meant to be a part of our family. She is a bundle of energy and keeps us all on our toes. Groovi and Chilli (pictured in the Chiefs shirts) will play until they pass out. They are so much fun to watch. Thank you for loving her until we could. We couldn’t be happier to be her furever family!”

ROXY

β€œShe is great! Her new name is Roxy and she is spoiled rotten. Her temperament is perfect for a house with kids and she even β€œputs us to bed” every night. She won’t lay down until everyone is in their bed. She even stands behind me and tries to herd me that way if I am taking too long. LOL We are grateful that you paired her with us!”

SALEM (AKA WICKED)

β€œSalem has settled in wonderfully! He pretty much owns my apartment. His toys are everywhere (and if one slides under the oven, he meows until I fish it out for him). Closed interior doors? Not allowed! A furry face and paws will stick out from under the frame until I let him in the room with me! When I was reorganizing my closet, he played with my laundry basket until eventually falling asleep in my bucket of socks – he just wants to be with me always. He tends to meow at me, and if I don’t give him attention fast enough, he will walk onto my chest and fall over on my face. And then go to sleep. Which just means I get regular impromptu nap times, since I don’t have the heart to wake him! He’s just a little goof ball that wants my love and attention all the time (from snuggling me all night, to yelling at me the *entire* time I am in the shower). Adopting Salem has been one of the best choices I have ever made! It has been really nice to have someone to come home to, and someone to give me a reason to get up out of bed every day. Salem has been making a huge difference in my life, and I really appreciate the SPCA’s mission, and everything that you all do to help out animals (and their humans!).”

NYX

β€œNyx is doing great and growing fast! She loves her canine brother and two canine sisters. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to welcome Nyx into our family. Her favorite past-time is monitoring the fish activity. As you can tell, the extremely curious kitty and is always all in to participate family activities.”

EMME (AKA LISA MARIE)

β€œShe is doing amazing! We kept her and the pups separate for a bit to see how they would do. They are already warmed up and comfortable in the same room as each other. It honestly couldn’t go any better. The kids instantly made her oursΒ ????Β She is now Emme. No behavior issues and is using the litter box perfectly. Β We are so lucky and blessed to have found just the right kitten for us!”

WILLOW

JENSEN

β€œJensen has since been dubbed by the queen of the house (my wife) with the new name of Woodie Jensen Long of Mounds. He is precious and is very loving.Β  We recently allowed out thoughts to bring us to tears knowing he is exactly what we wanted, how we brought joy into his life and how he is our baby. We hope his story will help others in finding their fur baby.”

POE

β€œPoe (now called Beau) is such a good boy. He goes on adventures almost daily to see his dog cousins and trips to parks, Atwood’s, and PetSmart. He is working on crate training at night and almost has the potty training down to a T. He behaves very well for baths and nail trims and already knows how to sit, and sometimes he will shake for us.”

BROCCOLI THE CAT (AKA LAURA)

β€œWe ended up renaming Laura. We based her new name off of her goofy personality and inquisitive nature. We named her Broccoli the Cat! She’s doing great and her house buddy, Mosin (xl male Russian Blue), are doing fine and are starting to sniff each other when the other is sleeping. She adjusted to the new house almost immediately and acts like a goofy princess. She’s incredibly snuggly and loves attention and getting into whatever we do around the house. I’m super grateful to have a new member of our family and she seems to love having a home!”

JEWELS

We sure do love him. Could not have asked for a better doggo!”

SCOOBY

β€œI can’t begin to describe how amazing this dog is. From the moment he got in the car I was his person and he was mine. He doesn’t leave my side, he always wants to snuggle and has to keep a paw touching while he sleeps. No lie, paw touching at all times when he sleeps. I honestly don’t know what I did to deserve him. I see why everyone at the shelter loved him. He really is the best dog ever. Not sure if y’all knew he had tricks. He can sit, lay down, shake hands, and turn around. That was a big night when he was showing off. I’m really trying not to get mushy on everyone but thank you for taking good care of him. We were definitely made for each other.”

PRINCESS VOID

β€œThings are going great! His name is now Shank (short for Mr. Shankly) and we bonded instantly! He gets to go with me to my job every day and loves everyone he meets. We love each other a whole lot and his two feline siblings have adapted well. We are a happy family of four!” ?

We are so happy Atlas has found his forever home!

JACK (AKA TOBY)

β€œToby is livin’ the life! We received this note from his new family. β€œToby has fit right in at our home. We’ve changed his name to Jack which is short for Jackpot. He went straight from the Tulsa SPCA onto a charter jet for the flight to his new home in Santa Barbara. It seemed as if he’s done this a thousand times (even waited until we landed to go to the bathroom!). He’s so comfortable now. He won’t leave my side. He’s such a great dog.”

Jack’s name is fitting! He did hit the jackpot!”

GUS

β€œWe love our new little guy, Gus-Gus! He has a big brother named Max and a big sister named Audrey. He also has two human siblings living at home to play with. He has started to sit for a treat and he follows the furry sibs to their cubbies at night when it’s bedtime. He found he could climb into the kibble can, but could not get out. That was a big lesson for us all. Dad loves having a dog that fetches and Mom loves the cuddles at night. Thank you for providing us with a sweet animal.”

SWEETY

β€œLittle miss Sweety is doing great! Β  She has settled in perfectly. She has been a great addition to our family. Β It took a bit for our cat ShebaΒ to accept Sweety.

Β She is so full of love and can never get enough.”

DAISY

β€œDaisy Duke is doing great! She’s a love bug! She’s a little skinny but we can remedy that. She’s SO sweet and LOVES to play, which is actually good for me.

FRECKLES (AKA BRYAN)

β€œWe named him Freckles ☺. He is living the spoiled doggo life and doing really well! Working on some separation anxiety and proper greeting (i.e. not jumping on the humans when they come home lol) but otherwise, he is doing great! Super smart and a quick learner. I am getting a crate ready for him and we will start working with him to get comfortable being in it. I think since he’s an only fur-child he just doesn’t like being alone or anywhere he can’t see his people lol. He is sooo sweet though. Love him so much. He has really taken to Grampa.” ?

ROSE (AKA FRITO)

β€œFrito has a new name, Rose. Rose is doing great! She loves to snuggle and play. She also loves to sit and look out the window and watch us come and go. It’s great to see her in the window when we pull up.”

Yay for Rose! We are so happy she found her forever home!

WINTER

β€œWinter – who is now named Emmy – is doing so well!! She is happy, playful, beautiful and has made us so happy!!! She brings smiles and energy into the house. Definitely a handful but well worth it! Emmy’s fosters really worked with her on potty training and crate training. She only whined for about 10 minutes her first night here but went right to sleep and slept the entire night. She’s eating and drinking well and has adjusted nicely! We are really focusing on trying to teach her to stop nipping so much. That’s our current goal. She is definitely a baby shark! But I know that will pass. Thank you so much for our little angel! She is such a joy!!” ❀️ ❀️

LAINEY RAY

β€œHere is Lainey Ray. We kept the Ray part since she has a stingray picture in her back fur! Lol! She has a very sweet disposition and there are absolutely no concerns about her. We fit right in with her!” ❀️ ❀️ ❀️

GRACIA (AKA CHARLIE)

β€œShe is amazing!!! Her new name is β€œGracia” (Grace in Spanish). Gracia is so smart, she learned to do all her needs in the bathroom or outside, she sleeps all night without crying, she walks with me for one hour at the park every day by my side, when I say β€œno” she understands it means what she did is wrong, and also, she understands when I say β€œgood girl” is because what she did was correct and she tries to do it later. THANK YOU!”

Esther

β€œEsther is a wonderful addition to our family. She and her brother George (a tabby kitten) adjusted to each other quickly, going from uneasy around each other to sleeping together within a month. We have not had any major behavior issues, just some puppy energy-fueled misadventures. Thanks for helping me find my best friend!”

Avery

β€œAvery is doing great! The five children take turns getting her outside and cuddling with her. She’s a very big cuddler! We are still in crate training but she’s doing better all the time.

Thanks so much for all that you guys do.”

She is so much more confident with Suki by her side.Β They love to go over to their friend, Monkey’s, house and play all day while mom is at work. She loves to go on car rides. She’s even been to Arkansas and played with Manny several times (my parent’s dog). Her favorite activities include stealing mom’s socks and following the cat around the house. She has been a wonderful addition to our family and she has made this household a bit brighter since her arrival. I am so thankful for her and I know she is thankful to us, too.” ?Β ?Β ?

COLBY

β€œHis name is now Colby Jack or β€œCJ”. Our last two flame-points were Cheddar and Motzy (short for Mozzarella) so we stayed with the cheese theme. He’s great and no issues whatsoever! He took about two days to get comfortable but he now acts as if he’s been here forever and is a blast to play with. Kids love him!”

TILLY (AKA BLANCA)

β€œBlanca has a new name, Tilly!Β  She is absolutely sweet. She has settled in faster than any shelter dog that I have had in the past.

Her favorite thing to do is eat and sleep LOL!Β  You can definitely tell she has been neglected in her life, but she gets lots of praise and kindness here.”

SLATE

β€œSlate is settling in amazingly! The kids named him Blueberry, but my oldest son still likes calling him Slate. He is a fantastic cat. Is completely litter box trained and has an amazing temperament. He loves everyone and is super patient with the kids. Β They all love him.”

ROXIE (AKA THELMA)

β€œHer new name is Roxie and we are doing great! She is an absolute joy and loves the other dogs and cats in the family. She is a Velcro dog, but I wouldn’t want it any other way. Sometimes she loves to sing and she runs faster than any dog I’ve seen. She absolutely loves car rides and walks and trips to the pet store. We’re working on not jumping up to say hello, but she learns quickly!”

FRED

β€œFred is doing well. He loves his new home & family. Freddy bear is what I’ve nicknamed him. We won’t change his name as that was a pretty cool name and also shared by my paternal grandfather. He is very sweet and cuddles with mom. Fred is beginning to play more and run around the house making the rounds during morning coffee time wanting pets from everyone.Β He is a very sweet boy and we love him very much.”

STORMY AND SUNNY

β€œWe adopted Stormy in October 2018 and Sunny (aka Princess) in August 2019. Stormy went to beginner training school shortly after we got her and she passed her test with flying colors! We’re currently working on roll over and speak – she β€œtalks” when she’s excited, just not on command. Sunny learned a few tricks just by copying her! The sisters do everything together – bark at squirrels, run around the yard, and stick together on our walks. They absolutely loved the snow we just had. We’re so blessed to have our fur babies :)”

Her mobility has increased she isn’t as wobbly as she was at first she can now get up and down from the sidewalk and porch. She likes being close to me and will bark if I get up and leave her on the couch. She has brought joy to me and I thank you for working with me to adopt her!”

❀️ ❀️ ❀️

THEO

β€œWanted to send you all a picture of Theo, who we adopted back in March 2017. As you can see, Theo gained a brother, named Bentley. We adopted Bentley a year after Theo. They are best buddies, always playing together. We wanted to give you an update on how well they are both doing. Thank you for all you do to help take care of pets, and find them their new families.”

We are so happy for Theo and Bentley! ❀️❀️❀️

RIVER (AKA BASIL)

β€œHe has taken well to our other dog.” They run around all day. He loves naps and comfortable blankets. We did change his name to River, and he knows it . He is also learning leash training. We couldn’t love him more. He is a bright addition to our family. Oh, and he loves music…more pop than country. We love him!”

RUBY (AKA CORRIANDER)

β€œCoriander (now, Ruby) is settling in wonderfully! We are working on potty training and learning how to use the dog door. Her big sister, Daisy (11 month old Pyrenees mix also adopted), tries to show her, but Ruby is a little reluctant. Ruby knows how to sit and knows she gets a treat when she goes potty outside. She’s getting better about letting me know when she wants to go outside. It’s a process, but she’s learning! She’s already grown some, and is getting taller. She is starting to fill in as well. She’s perfectly cuddly and friendly. She loves sleeping on my lap or next to me when I work from home. She LOVES playing with Daisy, and Daisy LOVES playing with her. They love playing keep away with different toys, especially the antler. Thank you all rescuing her (and thank you to her wonderful foster family as well!)! I could not be happier to have this new addition to my family.”

BANANA & LUNA (AKA BORRIS & OLGA)

β€œBorris and Olga are now Banana and Luna. My 5-year-old named him Banana and it stuck. They are doing well! They are growing big. They are still the sweetest β€œpurr purr” babies.”

We are so happy these two pretty kitties have found their forever home! ❀️❀️

HUXTLEY (AKA NEBRASKA)

Huxtley, aka Nebraska, was one of the dogs rescued from the Sequoyah puppy mill in July. Here is an update from his new family sent to us a few weeks after he was adopted.

β€œWe’ve adjusted well to going up and down steps, got familiar with grass pretty quick and learned that treats are amazing. He follows me around the yard while I work and is never more than a couple feet from me.Β ?

His favorite things are the porch swing and being in his crossbody carrier I wear since we’re still working on leash training.

I got him groomed and he’s used to wearing a collar now. He also has a little puppy sweater and puppy coat in preparation for the cooler weather coming. He already loves to be in a chair next to me at the fire pit out back and is the perfect little lap dog. He recently started showing some personality in that he barks when I walk around the corner out of site. He didn’t make a peep at all that first month so I honestly thought he never would. I absolutely adore him and hope to continue to give him the best life he’s always deserved.” ?

ATHENA (AKA KOHL)

β€œThis is Athena. Just wanting to thank you for allowing us to adopt her 6 years ago. She’s the best dog!!!!! We adopted her in May 2014 and she’s been the best dog ever!!!!”

SCHATZI (AKA SWITZERLAND)

β€œSwitzerland is now Schatzi, and she is perfect. She greets most new experiences as long as I’m with her to encourage her and masters them quickly. Within just the first few days, she loved the kids and was greeting adults, with some hesitation, but was putting herself out there.Β  She loves dogs too. She’s quiet and is a real cuddle bug.Β  She embraced her first vacation by doing many things to come out of her shell and learn to be a dog more.Β  It’s amazing to watch her grow every day with new experiences.Β Thank you, Tulsa SPCA,Β for helping me find the perfect pet.Β  You made the process painless to find a forever companion. She won’t be coming back for any amount of money!Β  She and I are going to retire together before long and have as many adventures as possible.”

ELLA (AKA DIONNE)

β€œDionne’s new name is Ella, she has adjusted incredibly well! She spends most of the day playing with all the cat toys we bought; she even plays fetch with a few, and she loves lounging in one of our four kitty condos/cat trees. She is very energetic and spunky. She’s a great addition to our little family! We are all very happy! Thank you!”

KOGA (AKA BOB)

β€œHis name is now Koga (not that he cares much about the name yet). He’s really taken to our dog Chuck and is determined to be his best friend. They are making great strides. He’s been really spectacular after that first hurdle of adjusting to a new home. He loves spending his time in the window. The laser pointer has to be kept under lock and key or he drags it off. I’m sure he thinks he will figure out how to make that pesky red dot appear one day. We love him and he’s been the perfect addition to our family.”

IRENE

β€œShe’s doing well, her name is still Irene though I added Bean to it. She’s a joy to have around and I’m glad I adopted her. She’s now a healthy weight and loves bully sticks and antlers and just things to chew. She’s a playful and happy dog.Β I love her with my whole heart. She brings so much joy in my life.”

LUCY (AKA MARIE)

β€œWe love our new fur baby!Β Β  We changed her name to Lucy and she has set herself up very nicely in our home.Β  She has managed herself very well with our dog and cat, along with playing β€œhard to get” with the rest of her humans. She cuddles, races us down the halls, attacks paper towel rolls, and talks to us in funny little chirps.Β  We hope that she loves our home as much as we love having her with us.”

MARA AND PEARL

This is the story about one of our amazing foster parents, Laura. Laura has been fostering with us since COVID hit. She first fostered Mara, a long term dog who had multiple behavioral issues while at the shelter. Mara flourished in Laura’s home, where Laura gave her the time to decompress, crate and potty trained her, gave her consistent exercise and introduced her to new people and eventually dogs in a safe and positive way! Mara was adopted earlier this summer. After that, Laura fostered Patches, and then Madelyn and then Vermont, one of the 77 dogs the Tulsa SPCA took in and prepared for adoption. Laura’s mom, Judy, fell in love with Vermont and renamed her Pearl. Pearl now lives a life of luxury and goes everywhere with her new momma.

TATIANA

β€œWe adopted Tatiana (a.k.a. Baby Girl) a little over two years ago. We wanted to update you on how wonderful she is doing. She got so much bigger and loves her big puppy bother, Russell. She’s been a motherly puppy – kinda takes care of all the other furbabies – loves to play and run, just a sweetheart and a pleasure to have in our lives. So glad we all found each other. She made our family complete.”

TONY BARK

β€œWe adopted Tony Bark in September 2019. My hubby renamed him Brisket Buddy. We absolutely love him. Our family would not be the same without him. Thank you for our sweet pup!” We are so happy Tony Bark found his perfect forever home!

BRENNA

β€œBrenna is doing so good! She has 20+ tricks down and saved my life the other day when she alerted me my heart rate got to high when I was asleep. She is a lover and tries to make everyone laugh!”

TALLULAH (AKA DELLA)

How cute is Tallulah?! Her new family says she was all β€œkisses and cuddles the whole drive home”. We are so happy she found a new home with 3 cat siblings who are getting used to having her around. Congrats, Tallulah!

GUS (AKA STEWART)

β€œStewart (renamed Gus) is growing like a weed and is almost fully potty trained! He is a cuddle bug and is totally spoiled! THANK YOU for our special boy!”

ELLIE

β€œEllie is absolutely awesome! She is super adventurous, playful and sweet. We adopted Flacito the same day and they are inseparable. We changed his name to Oscar, but Ellie’s name is perfectly suited so no change. We SO appreciate you and everyone at the Tulsa SPCA! Thank you for saving lives and enriching the lives of the adoptive families.”

OAKLEY (AKA HOWARD)

β€œThings are going great. We have renamed him Oakley. He is already getting spoiled. He has been a very good puppy and has learned many things, but we are still working on his chewing..lol. He loves to chew on anything and everything. Oakley has been seen for his first well puppy visit and is scheduled for his second well puppy visit on June 5. He is a big part of the family now!”

SELENA

β€œI want to start out by saying, I really hit the lottery with Selena! She is such a sweet girl. I was very reluctant on adopting or just owning another dog. I’ve had a dog most of life, minus the past 8 years and wasn’t sure if I wanted the responsibility and such that goes along with pet ownership, being a single guy, working a lot, yada yada.. All the doggos I’ve had have been rescues and have been amazing! But for some reason, this time, it was a big leap. I had thought about it a long time, then saw Selena on Facebook, spur of the moment, called a friend to come with me to the van location and met Selena and fell in love with her. I seriously could not be happier. She is a playful, sweet, food loving, lazy, attitude having, dramatic good girl. She snores louder than I do sometimes and has a personality that is so incredible. She wants to be next to me no matter what and I just love her. Thank you so much for giving her and I an opportunity to be best friends. Thank you very much for everything you all do! If you can’t tell, I’m a happy/proud dog dad.”

REESE (AKA TYRION)

β€œWe have had so much fun with Reese. We changed his name because we couldn’t remember Tyrion. We decided on Reese because he’s chocolate and peanut butter. He has so much fun with his brothers, Jace (Dachshund) and Max (terrier). He loves to play with his (and everyone’s) toys. He loves fetch. And, he loves to bark at absolutely nothing at all. He’s also quite the lover. Thank you, for helping us bring him to his forever home.” We are so happy Reese has found his forever home.

MANDO

β€œMando is doing great and we absolutely love him. He really fills up the house. He seems to be really healthy and comfortable in the house. He likes to stare out the window, but he never goes near the doors to get out of the house. He just loves to look.”

CREAM

β€œI wanted to share these sweet pictures of Cream!Β  We are so in love with him.Β  He loves to roll over on his back for belly rubs which seems so unlike a cat!Β  He’s a snuggly guy!Β  He’s a really special cat. ❀”

OSLO (AKA XAVIER)

β€œI’m sitting here with Oslo and thought I should give you an update.Β While we’re still taking it slow with introductions to newbies, Ozzie is head over heels for my family. His bond with my son is completely out of this world. He is a β€œnanny dog” through and through! He goes on about 1-3 walks a day (leaning more towards 1 during nasty winter weather), and runs a muck off-leash at the neighborhood school when possible. He loves his older dog brother even when the feeling isn’t mutual. He refuses to sleep anywhere but the king size bed at night, and snuggles on the couch during the day. He’s a Bark Box subscriber and we like to think he’s just a happy pup in generalΒ ?Β We wanted to personally thank you for pulling β€˜xavier’ from the BA shelter, and helping me find Karen Holman when we needed help. The entire SPCA staff went above and beyond. From the moment we stepped in the door, unknowingly walking in just minutes from closing time..the girls there didn’t even care. They weren’t rushing us out, they just seemed genuinely happy that a dog may find a good home with us that day. We highly recommend you to everyone, and will definitely be back whenever we’re ready for another fur baby!”

TATER

“Tater is such an adorable little boy and we love him so much! He is out of the cone and doing great. He is perfectly house trained and snuggles with us all the time. We feel that he was meant to be a part of our family ❀

MOLLY (aka Nevada)

β€œShe’s wonderful❀️ Her name is now Molly, and she responds to it. She’s a smart, sweet gal…and we’re in love! Yes, she’s eating well. She had her first Vet appt. yesterday-all ok. I’m so glad we adopted each other! Thank you??”

CHEETO

Cheeto’s new family had so many wonderful things to say about him that we had to narrow it down! Here are some quick facts about his life in his new home straight from his new mom! 1. I am allergic to cats, but for some reason I am have zero reaction to Cheeto. Our un-rational explanation is that Cheeto’s skin allergy somehow impacts my allergy. I have always always wanted a kitty, but they make me cry and break out in welts. But again NOT CHEETO. 2. Our anxious dog seems to be calmed by Cheeto and they often lay together. 3. Whoever, said cats are aloof never met a Cheeto. He wants to be near someone always. 4. As soon as we brought him home, he was a different cat. He is affectionate, playful and so sweet. He coat is fully healed and he is a sweet loving ball of fluff! 5. Cheeto follows me around the house. If I am in the shower, he will sit in the tub to make sure I survive. 6. Cheeto sleeps in our bed with our two other dogs and my husband. Usually snuggled next to my head. His purr is so soothing. 7. He likes to sing songs at 4 a.m. in the morning. Good thing we are early risers…

SMITTY

Smitty was surrendered to us on June 5 because she didn’t like the dogs in her previous home. As an older cat with an occasional attitude, she had a hard time attracting adopters with us. Over time, she started getting more and more depressed at the shelter. Luckily, we had a foster family willing to take her home and give her a break. She blossomed in the foster home and returned to the affectionate, happy girl she was meant to be. Not too long ago, she had her first application in what seemed like forever! Last week, she met her new family and finally went home.

BONNIE

β€œMiss Bonnie, adopted in June 2018, continues to thrive in our home and is now our only fur baby as her two elderly fur brothers passed away. She’s very spoiled! She also hasn’t had a flare up from the disease she was diagnosed with. We firmly believe a good loving, stable home has healed her! She’s a completely different dog from when we adopted her. She now has personality plus! She has been traveling with us in our motorcoach. Attached are a few pics from travels this week. Keep up the good work!”

SHADOW

Raymond is an β€œover the road” truck driver and had researched the pros and cons of dogs versus cats on big rigs. Cats actually scored the highest. Raymond was looking for company on the road, and when Raymond and his wife came to the Tulsa SPCA and met 2-month old Shadow, a strong connection was made. They have been traveling the highways ever since.

Raymond said, β€œShadow is a truck driving kitty. She has a little over a hundred thousand miles on her and has beenΒ from Miami, FL to Portland, OR and everywhere in between. She loves the road and being in the truck.”

Raymond and his wife returned to adopt another kitty in September because when Raymond leaves for a long haul, Shadow goes with him. Mom needed a companion, too. The connection was made again. This time it was mom and Nash (who is now Sylvia).

ALPHIE

β€œWe love, love our little Alfie!! He loves his broom!?Β He goes non stop and seems happy with us! Wouldn’t want him any other way!Β We kept his name since it fits him perfectly!”

OKIE (AKA TITAN)

β€œHello! I wanted to tell you that our family adopted a 3 yr old shepherd/husky mix the first week of June. We live in Maryland. He was flown to our local Animal Shelter from Tulsa because of the floods. I want to tell you that he has brought so many laughs and joy to our family! We adopted him just a month after we lost our 9 yr old dog, Ranger. We renamed him Okie because he’s from Oklahoma. His name on his paperwork says Titan. Thank you for the work you do finding animals new homes! And for bringing joy to ours!”

HARRY (AKA WINSTON)

β€œJust wanted to thank everyone at SPCA for all you do!!! Winston has become Harry & is doing very well! He is enjoying our early morning walks & loves being with the boys!”

FIFI

β€œThank you so much for helping us find her and helping to get her healthy. She’s the perfect little fit for our newly empty nest home. She’s a little dog with BIG personality. You all have been so kind from the first day we came to meet her and every visit in between. Thank you so much! We love that little dog!”

GEMMA (AKA SABLE)

β€œMy sweet Sable (now Gemma) is doing absolutely wonderful in her new home. She loves to snuggle & lick my face in the middle of the night. She also loves to play with anything and everything. I love her more than I ever imagined I could. She’s perfect and I am so thankful for her, and you guys!!Β ?β€œ

WISHBONE

β€œThis morning Wishbone and Bella were really frisky. This is his favorite toy whom Debra has named β€œPeaches”. He knows its name so he will go find her when he wants to play tug outside. This toy has now become both an inside and outside toy. I’ve even bought a backup as I know that it won’t last forever! His uncle Jay taught Wishbone the game of tug, but he has taken this to another level by himself.”

MORRA (AKA EMERALD)

This is Morra, formerly Emerald. Her new family says she is happy and that she loves taking rides with her dad and is best friends with her new human sister. We are so excited that Morra found her forever family!

WADDLES (AKA CARLTON)

β€œCarlton is now Waddles, aka Waddy. He is an amazing pup. The staff at the Marina Vet clinic named him the β€œcutest thing ever”. He and his sister Lilly (formerly Kylie J adopted from you a year before we got Waddy) are the best friends. Waddy, unlike Lilly is not shy at all. He’s a lover and is helping Lilly with her insecurities. He’s a bit of a diva when it comes to going outside to potty when it rains, but we have not had any crate accidents or house accidents in months. We spent a week at Robbers Cave state park and they both love to hike. Waddy wears out fairly quickly being so low and needs lots of breaks. We recently took them to Osage Hills state park and they both got their feet wet. My only concern is that I will never find 2 pups as good as these 2. Seriously!”

CAKE (AKA CAROLINE)

β€œCaroline has been renamed to Cake and gets along great with her new sibling, Coffee. She is super playful and curious and loves to play with water. She has learned how to play fetch with her toys and enjoys playing with ice cubes. She is doing wonderfully and has grown into an adventurous cat. I don’t know what Coffee and I would do without her, she brings a lot of joy to our lives.”

PUGSLEY

β€œPugsley has completely adjusted to our home and life. He is just now finishing up teething. He is also working as an ESA now. We have some more training still on that, but he is very smart and learns fast. He has all of his basic commands down and even is crate trained. Pugsley loves to be spoiled and be the center of attention. He doesn’t know a stranger and loves to play with other dogs. Pugsley has become a joy in our lives.”

CALI

β€œWe are so in love with Cali. She weighs about 40 lbs and is very healthy. She is the happiest, sweetest, most loving girl ever, in fact people comment when we walk β€œwhat a happy puppy”. She is totally spoiled, loves chasing, bugs, spiders, birds, leaves…very alert. She has been going to daycare from very early on for socialization and loves it. She goes one day a week every couple of weeks.Β Cali has lots of funny quirks, bringing us rocks from the yard, hanging over the back of the couch to watch us in the kitchen, laying in Daddy’s lap for a full body massage after breakfast (for hours if he will stay there). She loves to play with squeaky toys! But her funniest trait is she β€œ moans/ sighs” really loud when she is extra happy and she can even be asleep when she does it, makes us laugh every time.”

ALBUS (AKA SCOUT)

β€œWe renamed Scott as Albus, and he is the BEST cat we could have ever adopted! He’s super cuddly, loving, thinks he’s a dog and will sleep on our laps for hours. Our dogs are adjusting to him. Albus’ favorite thing is to climb everywhere, and we let him because it doesn’t bother us one bit. He also loves drinking out water out of our cups and playing in the bath tub lol. I take baths and he will sit on the ledge and just watch me lol. His favorite place is either our faux fur blanket in the living room, the kitchen window or our closet. He’s been such a joy to have in our lives. He’s constantly purring, extremely vocal, and will try to be a thief when I’m eating ice cream. Lol.”

COOP

β€œCoop is doing amazing! We did decide to keep his name. Coop is such a smart and amazing little pup! He loves to go on walks and sniff everything in sight, LOVES food, and his favorite trick is β€˜play dead’. We adopted another pit mix puppy so now Coop has a baby sister! We’ve always felt like Coop needed a sibling because of his love for all dogs, and I think we were right! He loves his new sister and if they aren’t playing with each other they’re always cuddling. Thank you so much for letting us adopt Coop! We love him so so much and don’t know what we would do without him.”

BLISS

β€œBliss is doing so well! We renamed her Scout. She absolutely loves her big brother, Duke, and they are best buddies. We have found that she is exceptionally good at catching moles so she is constantly digging up our back yard. LOL She is one of the most loving and affectionate dogs I have ever met and she has never met a stranger. Thank you guys so much for getting her to us. Not sure what we would do without her.”

ZARA (AKA VDARA)

β€œZara (Vdara) is doing so wonderfully! She quickly became my best friend and cuddle bug. She crawls up to me on her stomach in the mornings for cuddles and belly rubs. She is only happy once she’s physically on top of your head, and she always thinks kissy sounds mean it’s time to play. Her favorite spot is on the couch looking out the window protecting her new family. She’s doing so great learning command words and even teaching a new roommate puppy how to play! She is so well loved!”

MILO (AKA LINCOLN)

“Milo is doing great. It took him about 3 days to let us approach him and pet him and love on him and now he jumps into our laps for snuggles all the time. He loves playing with our 4-year-old dog and going to daycare at Paws on Pearl once a week or so. He is definitely chewy, but we just keep a million toys around for that and it doesn’t become a problem. He sleeps in a crate, loves taking daily walks, and LOVES to eat! Haha. We are going to start obedience classes at Tulsa Dog Training Club in June and I hope to get him certified for good behavior so he can occasionally come to school with me next year.”

LONDON

β€œZachary drove all the way from Lubbock, TX, on Saturday, adopted London, then drove back home. He got home at around 1am, gave her a bath and then they both crashed on the bed. Such a great match. He loves her so much. Yay, London and Zachary!!!”

BONNIE & CLYDE

β€œBonnie and Clyde have been with us one year now.Β We celebrated with a birthday party. My daughter’s dogs came to help us celebrate. We had Mexican food in honor of their being 92.5% Chihuahua.Β Β (We had them DNA tested.) There were lots of presents and treats. Bonnie and Clyde had a birthday cake, and we had a cookie cake.

She has gotten to the point where she knows a car does not mean we are taking her back. She loves to go for rides to the dog park and to pick me up from school. And, she is so spoiled. She has to have her own blanket and her own pillow. She is happy and is enjoying life.”

LEON AND JACK JACK

β€œI just wanted to touch base and give you guys an update on Leon and Jack Jack, the two cats we adopted earlier this year. If you’ll remember, Leon was nearly 30 lbs and severely obese when we adopted him and really struggling to lose weight. He is now down to 22 lbs and really starting to have lots of energy and play like a kitten!! Jack Jack has maintained his weight, I think we were told he could afford to lose 1 or 2 but our vet says he’s perfectly healthy so we’re happy with that!

He gives us a lot of laughs and keeps us busy for sure. We have fallen in love with our new puppy! Thank you!”

β€œHe is doing really good. He and the little dog I also got from you play non-stop!!! He was chewing a little bit at first, but I feel like it’s gotten better! He wimper-talks a lot when he’s excited, which is pretty funny. He’s a big lover, and thinks he has to cuddle! He even climbs up in the hammock and lays on top of me. He enjoys walks, and does great on a leash. He’s very clumsy right now, which is also funny but I think he’s going to be a great dog.”

DEXTER

β€œDexter is doing great. We did not change his name. He gets along with my dog, Oreo (rescue Brittany spaniel), all my boys, and he loves to sit and nap with Shawn (who is my special needs non-verbal son).

GYPSY

β€œShe is doing awesome!! It took her a few days to get used to elevators, but they don’t even phase her now. I took her swimming in a pool the other day and she walked towards it and walked right off the edge and plunged face first into the deep end! She must have thought it was a kiddie pool! She was scared to get in the shallow end (about to her knees) for awhile, but when she finally got in she LOVED it.”

He listens very well, doesn’t chew on anything but his stuffed monkey and is a great addition to our family!”

MAGGIE

“I just wanted to send a note to thank everyone at Tulsa SPCA for all you did for Margaret (the three-legged calico). I know that she got really sick and her prognosis looked bad. We are so thankful that the Tulsa SPCA didn’t give up on her.

One year ago today, we brought Maggie home. We had signed up to foster her and knew right away that we were going to be β€œfoster failures” and that she was not going anywhere. She had her forever home with us. Over the past year, her personality has just bloomed and she is the sweetest, most affectionate kitty. She loves to kick her catnip stuffed carrot and chase after her wand toys. When she’s worn out from all the play, she’s the best snuggler.

We are so grateful for your dedication and your care for the animals. Especially Maggie. She is the perfect addition to our family. She has helped us heal from the loss of our previous kitties and filled a huge void. Our hearts and our home are full. <3

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.”

β€œIt’s been a year since we brought Shakira (now Penny) home.Β  All the Facebook memories remind me of how tiny she was when we adopted her.Β  She was groomed today and PetSmart took this cute photo of her.Β  I couldn’t help but share it with the staff at the Tulsa SPCA.Β  We are so thankful to have this sweet pup as a part of our family.Β  Thank you for all you do connecting animals with their forever homes.”

CURRY

Hi. My name is Curry.

Mom and Dad decided it was such a unique name; they let me keep it. I didn’t really know my name at first, but I learned really quick.

I have a human sister who loves me and I get to sleep with her under the covers. I love giving my new family kisses everyday.

My dog brother (Dash) is my wrestling buddy. We love our bedtime wrestling matches. We also like to help mom in the kitchen, you never know when a little piece of food will try to escape her grip and will have to be captured by us.

I am still learning that I have to go outside to potty. The leash still scares me.

I have my chew toy destruction down to less than 24 hours. So Mom bought some chewy sticks which last a little longer. But the other night I discovered where Mom keeps the toilet tissue and proceeded to toilet tissue her room.

Mom and Dad say they have never seen me walk; I run everywhere.

I love my new home.

Paw Hugs & Puppy Kisses,
Curry

LULA (AKA DJ)

β€œWe did change DJ’s name to Talula and we mainly call her Lula! I wanted to name her Lulu since she’s quite the character and Rick wanted to name her Talula so we compromised! I can’t even begin to tell you how much joy she has brought to us! She’s so sweet, lovable and adorable with just the perfect amount of sassiness and spunk!! I don’t think either of us have laughed so much in a long time. She keeps us entertained with her fun little personality! Each night about 30 minutes before bedtime, she makes a run in the house. She’s made her own little racetrack in our living room running through the living room and around the furniture at lightning speed! We just crack up! She loves to lie in daddy’s lap and especially loves it when daddy lies in the floor hiding her ball under his chin and squeaking it. She does everything she can to get it lol! He wrestles with her and plays! Β She loves to lie with momma in bed for about 15 minutes before we crate her for the night and daddy brings her to momma every morning to sleep for a little bit with momma when he leaves for work.”

RU (AKA FARRAH)

β€œOur little kitty has adjusted very well, and we love her so much. We changed her name from Farrah to Ru, short for Ruby. She enjoys playing with her many toys that are set up throughout our apartment, and playing with her dad. She also likes to take naps with us, and she sleeps in our bed every night. We love watching her grow into the little mischievous cat she is! Thank you so much for all the work y’all do.”

WARREN

β€œWarren is absolutely wonderful. He warmed up to me immediately. He’s such a playful happy little guy! He never leaves my side and he is always cuddling me and my boyfriend.

MILO (AKA JACK)

TONKS (AKA ALMOND)

β€œThis is Almond (whom we have renamed Tonks). She is doing wonderfully and starting to emerge from her shell more and more. She is super smart and picking up her training quickly. She is wonderful with our cat (though he is taking time to adjust).

EDDIE (AKA DENNY)

β€œDenny is now named Eddie. He is doing great! He is full of life and tons of energy! He loves playing with his rescue brother, Charlie (the cat). We have come to a realization that we do not favor baths. BUT we love making friends at the dog park. He loves affection! So happy to have Eddie part of the family.”

SIDNEY (AKA BUCKAROO)

β€œYou were also right that he loves the water. I go for a walk with him and his sister every day on a few hundred acres of fields that are full of ponds, creeks, and marsh land, and he never ever passes up the opportunity to jump in. Not only that, but he has taught his little sister to swim, and even let’s her climb on his back in the water when she doesn’t feel like paddling anymore. Thank God we have him, because she’s not fully grown yet, and she’s full of energy. He wears her out a bit.

Inside, he is the perfect dog. He has never had an accident in the house and loves to cuddle. Sweetest dog ever, unless you’re a field mouse. Remarkably smart, too. He’s the 7th dog we’ve had, and he’s hands down the smartest.”

LILLY (AKA MUPPET)

β€œThank you so much for bringing Muppet into my life. She’s been renamed Lilly, and has already become such a comfort in my life! From day 1 when I brought her home, she’s never been shy with me.

JOURNEY (AKA MIKEY)

β€œMikey is great! He met his Grammy last night and her chihuahua (Chico). They played and got to know each other. He cuddled on the couch and watched TV with us for little while, then heading upstairs for cuddle time with Riley. He fell asleep fast and slept all night without a peep out of him. He was up at 5:30 this morning with us wagging his tail and wanting a belly rub! He’s great, we love him! We changed his name to Journey, since he has had quite the Journey.”

FITZ & PRIMΒ (AKA FOXTROT & SASSY)

β€œThe kittens are doing great! Foxtrot is now β€œFitz,” and Sassy is now β€œPrim.” They just moved right in and were almost immediately comfortable with their new home and new dachshund sister Shelby. Prim is due for some more shots in the next couple of weeks, so I will probably bring them both in to the vet for a general check-up as well. Thank you again for all you do at the Tulsa SPCA, and for helping me to adopt these wonderful additions to our little family!”

IZZY & ZOEY (AKA DUSTY & SELMA)

β€œLittle Dusty I named Izzy, and of course, Selma is now Zoey. They are doing great, playing and cuddling and running constantly. Just wanted you to see their pics and know they are very happy. Once again a special thank you to Morgan, Curtis and John.Β Keep up the great work!”

SUGAR

β€œWe adopted Sugar two years ago around May 1. My wife felt sorry for the dog when she saw it on your website and the fact that so many people had looked at the dog but no one adopted her. We talked to John Horky, the adoption specialist, and we ended up adopting the 8-year-old dog. I have enjoyed Sugar and she is now a big part of our lives here in Bartlesville. We do lots of walks and jog together. I will never forget John telling us that OLD DOGS ROCK THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO! Here is a picture of Sugar and my wife Lu.”

SIMONE (AKA CIDER)

“It has been a week since we adopted our new fur baby Cider, now called Simone. She has nestled her way into our hearts and is truly loved.

Simone is doing great! She does great in the crate while we are gone and at night. She is also doing great house training. What started out as an impulse decision has turned out to be the best decision! We love Simone dearly!”

PEACHES (AKA TAFFY)

β€œHere is a little update on Peaches. We have changed her name to Taffy. Sometimes she gets called Taffy the Tongue because the only time she is not licking is when she is asleep.Β She has just melted right into our family. She loves car rides, squeaky toys, treats, and her little cousin dog, Tiger. She is such a sweet, loving, well-behaved dog that it is hard to believe someone could give her up. Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to have such a precious little girl become part of our family.”

WINSTON (AKA DUGAN)

β€œGood morning, I wanted to update you on Dugan. His name is now Winston, and he has learned his new name very quickly. My daughter and I are absolutely in love with him.

CHARLIE (AKA ZACK)

Β He is is such a sweet and loving dog, and we couldn’t be happier to have found him.”

RIPLEY

β€œRipley has been wonderful, one of the most loving, friendly animals I have ever been around. He won’t even tear up his stuffed animals, he just grooms them.

I couldn’t have gotten a better friend!”

BUTLER (AKA MILES)

β€œHe’s doing great!Β He’s a bundle of energy with a feisty personality! Probably because he’s small. He and Rambi are fast friends and watching the two of them play together is free entertainment.Β We can’t thank you enough!”

PETE (AKA HOWIE)

β€œHowie is now known to our family as Pete, like Pistol Pete. Go Pokes! He’s been such a joy to our family. He has a ton of energy and plays great with our three boys. He loves long walks, chewing on his favorite ropes, and taking naps. He’s very affectionate and loves to give the boys big hugs.”

KOOPER (AKA TORETO)

β€œThings with Toreto are working out just fine. We have changed his name to Kooper.Β Our other dog Greta finds having a puppy around a bit annoying, Β but she is coming around. Β Kooper is learning about the cats, and even forming a sort of friendship with one of them. (the crazy one. Lol) Β She lets Kooper chase her around the yard, and looks back at him puzzled when he gives up. It’s cute to watch. He is quite the character. Thank you so much for all that you guys do.”

KINGSTON

“I just wanted to send an update regarding Kingston. It took him about 5 minutes to get adjusted, and ever since he’s been treating our home as if it’s his kingdom. He been extremely lovable, and EXTREMELY playful. He loves meeting new people, and he loves cuddling up with us in bed. He hasn’t given us any problems, or shown any difficulty settling into our home. He loves to run from one end of the house to the other, so if you hear galloping, that just him doing his laps. We love Kingston so much, thank you so much for allowing us to welcome him into our home!”

RINGO (AKA RUGER)

Thanks again everyone for a great staff during the adoption process!”

GALAXY

β€œGalaxy is doing great!Β  She has made my boys so happy.Β  She plays with them and loves to hug and be hugged. The day we brought her home, my son was laying on her watching a movie.Β  She was sound asleep until she heard me sneaking up to take a picture.”

BANDIT (AKA FESTUS)

β€œI wanted to update you on the addition of Festus (now named Bandit) to our family.Β  He is the sweetest little thing, and he has been such a fun addition to our family!Β  Bandit loves playing with our other dog Murphy, but when they’re not playing together, Bandit is following his humans around, cuddling up in his bed, or running around outside.Β We have been working really hard with Bandit on teaching him to obey commands and knowing his own name.Β  He and Murphy get confused with who we’re giving commands to, so name recognition has become something we work on daily.Β He is definitely an energetic little ball of fur, but he has already come so far in the short amount of time that we’ve had him.Β  We are very thankful that we found him, and we’re so happy he is part of our family now – he is definitely well-loved!”

BOOMER (AKA WIZZ)

β€œOn December 19th Wizz and 2 other Tulsa SPCA dogs came to Bishop Kelley High school to help relieve our stress about the approaching finals. When I (Abbie) went to see the furry friends I did not expect to meet such sweet dogs, epically Wizz. Despite all the commotion in the Commons area he was calm,cool, collected, and eager to snuggle. He stole my heart that day. I persuaded my parents to fill out the adoption papers for him that same week on Thursday after my mom meet him. Then we brought him home.

Since he’s come home we’ve renamed him Boomer Watson but we call him Boomer for short. From what we can tell he loves his new home. He has his favorite toy, a plush snowman nicknamed Snowy, with him all the time. He’s super sweet and is all around the best dog we could have hoped for. He’s been learning some tricks and once he masters those we think trying out agility training might be good, epically since he’s got the most energy in the family. He likes going on walks and exploring new places like my barn.”

MAGNUM

β€œI wanted to send some pictures of our new family member, Magnum, adopted on New Year’s Eve 2016.Β  He’s settling in perfectly with our family!

Thank you for allowing us to adopt him. We hope you have a very Happy 2017 filled with lots of adoptions.”

BRANSON

β€œWe are thrilled to have Branson be a part of our family. He settled in quickly. We took him to Petco and he picked out his own toys.

SHE-RA

β€œI adopted She-ra a couple of months ago. She is a wonderful addition to our family and is very smart and protective, but other times she can be such a baby. She really loves being an inside dog, and I think she loves the car rides to the park than the park itself. She was labeled as cat/ dog aggressive, but has made many friends with nearby dogs and even cats from next door. Best decision we ever made.”

RIVET (AKA BEETLEJUICE)

β€œWe wanted to update you guys on formerly, β€œBeetlejuice,” now β€œRivet.” He is doing great and he is a busy busy boy! He loves to play with the kids.

DASH

β€œDashΒ is very smart and a fast learner! He’s pretty much potty trained and waits by the door when he needs to go. We are trying to get him well socialized with people and other animals so he goes everywhere with either me or my husband.

He’s met so many people and other pups in his short time with us. He’s been to our home obviously, we’ve had friends stay over and bring their big Labradoodle. Dash has been to our local pizza place and hung out on the patio with all of our friends, he’s been to my moms house and met her dogs, he’s been to Stephens parents house and met their pugs, and he was in our wedding last week! And now he’s on our honeymoon with us in Taos, NM!

He LOVES hiking! He chews quite a bit so we’ve loaded him up with bones, squeaky toys etc because he chewed through his first collar, he chewed our friend Charlie’s phone charger, and he’s chewed through both his food and water bowl so we need to get metal ones. Also, we changed his name to Dash and he has lived up to it! The other day he found the perfect opportunity and β€œDashed” into a five star restaurant and ran through about four different conjoining rooms while me, my husband, and several workers chased him until he couldn’t go anymore and reached the back of the bar. Everyone thought he was sooooo cute, though. Even the restaurant goers so nobody was really worried about it! LOL”

HOSS MOSES HOOD

“Hoss Moses Hood was adopted on October 1st! He’s starting to settle in nicely! His potty schedule is a little hard to follow, but we are working on it! He’s too scared to go on a car ride still but I think he will be ok with it soon enough… So far, he seems to love his new home. Of course, he still has his monkey, plus a couple new ones haha! Here are some pictures. Thank you again!”

JEWELS

“I am Jewels, and I was officially adopted on October 6, 2016. I wanted to let u know I ? my new home! I ? my sissy, Doxie Gretal, soooooo much! As you can see, we enjoy napping together.Β  My mommy & daddy love having me around, too! They take me on daily walks, brush me everyday, and my absolute favorite thing is going “bye-bye!” in our car.Β  I’m starting to be more playful and love to have fun,Β but I’m always ready at the end of the day to snuggle up and call it a night!”

She also loves to play at the dog park and gets along great with her brother Bubba. At the end of the day she loves to snuggle. She ended up being house trained and mostly crate trained when I got her which was great.

Thank you guys so much for all you did!

Today is the one year Β anniversary of Annie being with us. She is not the frightened timed dog that arrived a year ago. She belongs here and if you don’t believe it just ask her.Β The couch is hers and she takes full advantage of it but she doesn’t get on any other furniture.Β We really enjoy having her with us. She loves the car and wants a ride every time we go out. Β She is our dog.

Bonnie

BONNIE

β€œI’m writing you to let you know that after three months, Bonnie has really settled into her new home. She had a short adjustment period, being out here in the country and having plenty of wildlife to make her a little crazy, but she’s really loving it now. It turns out she is fully housebroken and crate trained and even knew most of the basic commands! She has quickly become a member of the family and everyone that meets her absolutely loves her!”

Horns

HORNS

From Horns-
β€œI really like my new place and my new companion Wylie. It took a few days for Wylie to warm up to me, but he likes me better everyday now. Thank you guys so much for all you did for me while I was there- I’m doing good here too and wanted to tell you hello.”

Wally

WALLY

β€œI wanted to update you on Wally. I met Wally at the SPCA Dog Walking event at Guthrie Green, where I had volunteered to walk the dogs over lunch. A volunteer told me that Wally had been with the SPCA a few months and had sisters with him who were adopted earlier.

Wally came home a few days later, after meeting my husband, and meeting our corgis to ensure they would get along well. He is doing great at home, playing with his new friends, enjoying toys, air conditioning, and lots of belly rubs.

Without the dog walking program, I would have never met Mr. Wally. I wasn’t looking for another dog, but when I met Wally, I knew he was meant to be with our family. Wally has brought fun and excitement to our corgis. He absolutely warms my heart when he lays on his back and let’s his floppy ears fall to the ground. β€œ
