I wanted to give an update on Breezy formally known as Shea as it was 3 years ago that we
brought her home to complete our family. It is amazing how things work out as it was
originally her puppies that brought us to Pet Orphans as she was the mommy of 8 pups, but
we just fell in love with her and knew that she belonged with us. Our lives have never
been the same and Breezy is just so wonderful, loving, and caring. She loves to cuddle
and even thinks she is a lap dog. She is great with our friends kids and very protective
of them. She even consoles them when they are upset by walking over and uses her nose to
nudge them and give gentle kisses. Breezy loves taking long walks, going for car rides,
playing at Dog Beach, playing catch and chase (she still won't retrieve), to name a few.
She is the love of our lives and we look forward to many more loving and fun years!
Thank Pet Orphans for all that you do!
Best Regards,
Michael, Cathleen, and Breezy

Just thought I'd let you know that Kadi (aka Chrissie) is the love of our lives. She loves
being with me at my store during the day and she loves checking out the ducks (but never
barks) on our/her deck. She's a joy. She went to puppy training with us for the 1st eight
weeks and did great. The only thing she hasn't mastered yet is emptying the dishwasher ---
LOL.
Check out her picture at my store, she's on her bed upside down and asleep.

Thank you,

Hi there, this is Melody & Mark who adopted Brooklyn, I just wanted to
give you a quick update and thank your entire staff again for all their love and hard
work at Pet Orphans. You can really see the care you give your animals reflected in
their ability to adjust to their new environments and families. I am so completely
impressed with our new little dear Doggy and with all of you!
Brooklyn (Lola) ADOPTION UPDATE: Doing fantastic! No accidents, no whining while
in her 'den' area, did a # 1 & # 2 outside, ate both breakfast & dinner, went
for a walk, met a new doggie pal & Harmony, is still afraid of the cats but that
will take time.
You can follow Mark, Lola & I on facebook to see more updates and pictures too!

Thank you again!

Dear Canine Friends and kind Caregivers of POSC:
I'm happy to report that I have found my forever home. My name was Sutton at POOSC but my human,
Joelle, has decided to call me Jake. I think I look like a Jake.
We have been on so many adventures in just 3 weeks, I've been to Jiffy Lube, PetCo (this place is
awesome), Home Depot, Joelle's Kick Ball games, Venice Beach (although they kicked us out until
October), the office, and I even got to go to a Bed & Biscuit for a few days while my human
traveled.
I've made so many new friends in my neighborhood – my girlfriend Sahara is also a rescue but she's
only 8 months old my other girls are significantly older but they are fun too. My companion says
I tackle like Troy Polamalu – she's a Steelers fan. We go hiking every weekend and it turns out I
LOVE water! I like to swim in it, and drink it, and try to pull rocks from the bottom. It's so
much fun!!
I live with another creature in my new forever home – her name is Pumbaa and she's armed. I try
to stay out of her way but the other day I just could not control myself – I HAD to chase her.
She did not like that nor did my human. I think I'll just leave her alone.
I'm enjoying several walks everyday and I play fetch very well, I love playing with the other dogs
in my neighborhood and my human thinks I’m great! I get rawhides and kongs and I have a bunch of
toys, I get my belly rubbed and lots of treats when I perform. (I can sit, laydown, shake with
both hands, I sit pretty and I'm working on roll over).
I had a lot of fears at first, people, the truck hatch, strange noises, but I'm getting over them.
It's gonna be some work to train this human but we've got a life time to work it out. We stopped
by POSC today to pick up some items from the store – I kinda ate my leash – I was nervous or bored
or something. Oh and at my new home there are all kinds of strange creatures that come by. My
favorite are the lizards – they're fast so you gotta be quick to catch 'em. I've not caught one
yet! There are also squirrels, bunnies and deer! I've even seen horses on my hikes! I try to
sniff their butts but they are way too tall. Well I need a nap – it's been a big day already!
A word from the human:
I'd like to thank all of you that make POOSC such a great organization. I'm very happy with Jake
and while a puppy was not what I was after I've got the best animal that I could ask for. He's
been a blessing and he's super smart. Mutts rule! We've had some housebreaking issues but not
nearly as bad as they could have been. He's a typical puppy but he listens so well. Not one item
destroyed - - - yet.
I look forward to more adventures and his companionship. He's truly a delightful dog! I've
attached some pics of our adventures and hope you enjoy them.
Thanks for all the great work you do daily to make a better life for all the orphaned animals you
help. Keep up the good work! May all the animals find all the care and love they deserve!
Best regards,
Joelle Safko

Hi everyone! Remember me? This is Samantha! I just wanted to let you know that I'm doing great with
my new family! I went to a puppy class and it was a bit scary at first. But soon after, I couldn't
wait to get to class and see all of the other puppies. In fact when I go on walks, I can't wait to
meet a new dog. I've been on two vacations with my family already, and had so much fun! They were
both long driving trips to Mammoth and Oregon. And I actually enjoy riding in the car! I love going
on long walks and doing tricks for treats. I also love cuddling with my family on the couch while
we watch the Dog Whisperer! I'll check in with you again soon!
Love,
Samantha

I wanted to share a few photos from Stella's (known also as Mindy at Pet Orphans) recent one year
anniversary celebration! We started our day off taking her to her favorite place - the doggie
beach in Malibu! Then we came home and had part that night with a special cake I baked her and
decorated, complete with candles and singing! As you can see from one of the photos, she was a
bit over the hat after a while. We had such a fun day. The past year with Stella has flown by -
we love her so much and can't imagine a life without her.
Thank you!
- Mike and Marnie Overman

Hi everyone, Aaron and I adopted Randall in March and we just wanted to let everyone know how he is
doing. Randall is doing GREAT with us, his forever family and home. Randall has been the best dog
for us, and we make sure he gets all the attention and love he deserves everyday. He has brought so
much joy into our lives and we love him so much. We are always striving to be the best caretakers
for him.
During the day, he loves to take naps on the couch and burrow himself underneath the covers. He likes
to romp around with his many toys, especially when Daddy comes home. He enjoys all his walks but his
favorite activity is just snuggeling right next to us and giving us lots and lots of kisses. We
couldn't have found a better dog and we love his spunky attitude! We recently took him through a 6
week training class and everyone in the class was so proud of the progress he made. Plus, as a bonus,
we noticed he was great on all the agility equipment!
We feel lucky to have found him and it wouldn't be possible without everyone at Pet Orphans. We would
like to thank everyone for their hard work in taking care of the pets in need of homes. Thank you so
much for helping us find Randall, our very best friend.
All the Best,
Aaron Mento and Michele Nguyen

Hi! My name is Lumpy. I was Ernie when I was at Pet Orphans waiting for a loving forever home. I am happy
to report that I found that home! My mom and dad Gabriel and Lorena, bring me to Pet Orphans for my baths
and hair cuts with my good friend Rhonda the groomer. I can't express enough how happy I am in my new life.
I am loved and have wonderful treats and great toys to play with. My mom and dad are the best. I thank Pet
Orphans for finding me the family I have always wanted! |

I can't believe that my little man is going to be 3 years old tomorrow… Orlando ! Here are a
couple of pics so you can see how he just gets cuter and cuter every day (I know, I know…I
also wonder how it's possible to be this cute). These aren't the best pics because they were taken
with my camera phone, but good enough to enjoy regardless.
1st pic- Orlando reminding Roscoe that even though he's little, his still the "big brother"
and can win most wrestling matches
2nd pic- Orlando in his normal position…sleeping like a grumpy old man
Happy Birthday O!
