We were on our summer vacation
Until we were informed of an evacuation!
We left the fun and sun
And said goodbye to our dream
All because of Hurricane Irene! L
Stay safe and dry,

LOVE HER SMILE!
Dear all at Clinton County Humane Society,
We have bought a house 3 years ago, so now the dogs enjoy a large back yard
and a lot of inside space. Added benefit is that my husband works from home, and
the animals are almost never alone.

It's a quite a belated letter, and I'm sure you don't remember our dog Bea,
whom we have adopted from you in August 2007.
Today Bea got a "reminder card" to visit the vet for yearly check-up, and
going through her documentation I decided to look you guys up and see if you're
still around, and how things are going at your shelter. I found the list of pets
that have been adopted from you on PetFinder, and on page 178 out of 189 I've
found our dog: http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/7724526
Reading her bio almost brought tears to my eyes - poor sweetie has not had
any visitors! But we are truly thankful that we were the ones to end up with
this amazing dog.
The "chubby" got chubbier! 5 pounds of "overchub" according to the vet
(working on it). In 2008, we have decided to get a companion for Bea, and have
gone through several shelters in Cincinnati area before Bea finally selected the
sister she wanted. Bea has been very sweet and caring with our new dog Freckles,
who came home to us sick, pregnant (got pregnant in so-called shelter that has
been shut down by SPCA earlier this year), malnourished and quite depressed.
This was the day we realized how great of a job you have done with Bea, who was
perfectly healthy, well socialized and a much happier dog.
Just a couple months later, Bea and Freckles looked like they've been
together their entire lives. People often asked us if they were from the same
litter, and we got quite a few comments "They act like they have one brain!".
They are inseparable, and currently enduring the home invasion aka our newly
adopted kitten.
One of Bea's most favorite activities
is an evening trip to Starbucks, and riding in the passenger seat. Everyone at
Starbucks keeps feeding Bea and Freckles cookies, so they anticipate the ride
and remind us if we forget. Car in general creates a lot of excitement, as it
usually gets them to a park, dog party or another wonderful dog place.
Cuddling is another favorite of Bea's. While Freckles is a tomboy, Bea is a
princess. Also known as the drama queen at the vets, because when she gets her
shots/check-up done, she howls like she is being tortured. We had to stop going
to Petsmart for grooming of sheer embarrassment, as some of the customers there
frequently peeked through the glass to see which dog was in so much pain. But
no, it's just someone has touched Bea's paws - she was displeased and decided to
let the entire world know about it.
With all her quirks (and mainly because of them!) Bea is a wonderful,
loving dog who makes us very happy. There is almost no better feeling for me
than to come from work and see my animals bounce up and down welcoming me
home.
Thank you for everything you do. We know it's sometimes challenging and
disheartening, but you all are amazing for saving so many animals. Best of luck
to you!
Forever thankful,
August 7, 2011
