     Bella girl found the most beautiful home one could wish for. Her new owner came to pick her up. Bella took to him immediately, and according to him she was an absolute angel in the car. He plans to give her an active, happy life, which she so desperately needed. He keeps us updated with pictures, and we are welcome to stay at his bed and breakfast in the near future to see for ourselves that Bella is happy. What a great experience for all of us, mostly Bella. Thank you.

     I am so very thankful for Rescue Me!, it was a hard decision to put Loki up for adoption. It is something I will always be sad about and will miss Loki so much, but I was able to find Loki a better home that could give him all the attention he requires. This website was so wonderful to use, I liked being able to correspond via email. Thanks to Rescue Me! I was able to find Loki a new home that is beyond perfect for him, I know I could walk away from this whole experience feeling safe and confident about the adoption. I will always be grateful for Rescue Me! and the family that adopted Loki. Thank you so very much.

     Duchess was adopted by extended family friends HOWEVER HER POSTING WAS A TRUE SUCCESS FOR 2 OTHER DOGS on RescueMe....2 pointers were placed by NETWORKING with folks that responded to her post. So, keep emails and phone numbers of EVERYONE that contacts you leave no stone unturned. Anyone that contacted about Duchess was directed to the other 2 pointers and placed! Actually they are all now relocated in Pinellas County and I want to throw a RescueMe Reunion party for the dogs!

     About a year ago, my german shorthair pointer, Ginger started experiencing major anxiety. We had just welcomed our 2nd child and moved to a new home, and the change was overwhelming. On the 4th of July, the fireworks combined with the separation anxiety became too much, and Ginger began to chew trim. For the next 6 months, we had issues on and off. Each time we would come home, we weren't sure what we would find. At 8 years old, Ginger had joined our family as an 8 week old puppy. We were heartbroken and began to try everything we could to ease her anxiety. From thundershirts to calming plug ins to doggy prozac, we tried it all. It seemed a home with small children was just too much for Ginger. My husband and I decided we wanted to try to find a better home for Ginger. I posted her for adoption on this site, and we were contacted by a retired gentleman who had just lost his GSHP. He was anxiously looking for a new friend, and after carefully discussing her issues, he came to pick her up and adopted her. I cannot tell you what a blessing this site is. A GSHP rescue group turned us down when we reached out to them for help, and with her anxiety issues, a shelter or humane society were just not options. Ginger seemed to be un-adoptable, and we were very scared we were going to have to put her down. This site gave my loyal, loving friend the opportunity to have a second shot that she deserves. She is a sweet, wonderful pet, and I knew it was a match made in heaven when her new owner told me, 'She might be homesick at first - she had better just sleep with me tonight!' That brought a smile through my tears - thank you again from the bottom of my heart.

     I stumbled across this site while searching for ways to find my sister's German Shorthaired Pointer a new home. Her youngest son became severely allergic to her, and they were informed she would most likely have to be put down if we couldn't find her a home. This was absolutely heart breaking. However, after finding this site, I had many responses within hours of posting. Now, Delilah has a wonderful new home, where she will be loved as she deserves. This site literally saved her life, and will surely provide the adopting family many years of joy. God bless this site and everyone who runs it. I am very grateful to you all!! Joe

     Hello, I've never blogged before or even read one but here goes. Eldridge was at my kennel because he was found and never claimed by his owner. I tried posting and put an ad in the newspaper but no one responded. I knew he was a nice dog but figured someday he would find a home. This was in December, and I was very business at work and just was caring for him. But last week I had a free moment and decided to look on the internet for rescue sites and that is where I saw Rescue Me. It was very easy to post and I had a call the next day from a lovely woman who had just lost her older pointer and was ready for another. It sounded too good to be true, but sure enough she came by, after a 2 hour drive to see him with her children and liked him. They took him home just 2 more days later. I am so happy Eldridge found a home. All dogs should have someone to love. Thanks for helping.

     Using Rescue Me! was amazing. We found our German shorthair a fabulous new home in no time! Thank you! :)

     I am so pleased to announce that our foster dog, Baby, has found a happy home! We found this sweet girl living in a trailer with a man who neglected her and treated her poorly. Although we really were not in the best financial or logistical position to give her the forever home she deserved, we took her in to get her back to health and show her love, and began our search for the best home for her. We discovered during her 7 months with us that Baby has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a skin and connective tissue disorder found in humans, and in canines known as 'Rubber Puppy Syndrome.' Luckily for Baby, her disorder was of the mild variety, only causing her skin to be delicate. While this did take extra maintenance, she was so worth it all. We wanted to be sure we found her a home where her new family would appreciate her condition and love her regardless of the challenge. Finally, via Rescue Me Animal Rescue Network, we found her a home on 80 acres of heaven, with 3 other German Shorthaired Pointers, with whom she could run, play, and explore. Her new family has reported that she is adjusting well and has become very attached to her people and her new doggie-companions. They love her and she loves them back! Thank you so much, Rescue Me, for making this resource available so we could find an appropriate and loving home for this amazing, sweet-souled creature. She deserves all the good in the world. We miss her very much and love her deeply, but are so happy that she is living her life somewhere that she will be truly cared-for and loved.

     Thank you so much for allowing me to post our dog 'Steve' on your sight! We found a great home for him, a loving new owner who is also a 'Pet Sitter & Dog Walker'. Steve's new owner plans on taking him camping, hiking, biking, and to the park to play 'ball.' We are very grateful to have found someone to care and love Steve, and it's all because of your website! Sincerely, The Bitzer's

     Dear Mr. Gold, We posted Jaxson, our GSP on your site and was successful in rehoming him. His new owner drove to Iowa from Minnesota to pick him up. We feel confident that Jaxson went to a home where he will be loved and given the attention that he deserves. Thank you for allowing us to post our pet on a site that obviously works. Jon and Melanie Bursey

     Hi Jeff, Hunter has been adopted. He is in an awesome home and getting lots of loving. Thank you so much for the great service you are offering for those wanting nothing but the best for the pet they love but cannot keep. Rescue Me! was extremely effective. I had many responses for Hunter, so I could be choosy as to where he was going to live. I would recommend Rescue Me! to anyone who is in a similar situation as I was. Thanks again, Laura Feuerer

     Jeff, Nellie was adopted on Tuesday, January 17 and is in a good home. Donna Prior and Nina Henderson were kind enough to list Nellie on their web site with Companion Animal Rescue of Madison, Georgia. If it weren't for web sites such as Rescue Me and Companion Animal Rescue of Madison, I believe it would have taken much longer to find Nellie a quality home. I received numerous phone calls and emails inquiring about Nellie, and I was thrilled that she ended up with a loving family in Winder, Georgia. I appreciate your follow up. Thank you! Billy Marett

     Rescue Me is awesome. A very nice young couple came and got Coco Wednesday night. I believe Coco will be very happy with people who live a very active lifestyle. Our family will miss her very much, but it is comforting to know she is with people who will love her as much as we do. Karen

     Amara did find a home and I believe it was a God sent email. The gentleman that is adopting her is perfect. He also has a GSP that is the same age as Amara and I believe they will be best buddies! This site has made a very difficult decision a little easier. Thank you so much! Cindy Everroad
