We have a Happy Homes story for you featuring a small, scruffy dog named Troy, now named Loon! You may remember Loon from our last group of transport dogs who traveled all the way to Maine looking for their happy homes. Now that Loon has found his, he is absolutely loving being part of a New England family! With mountains to hike, trails to explore, and all the new sights and sounds, Loon`s family couldn`t wait to share all his amazing pictures with us. And trust us, these photos are worth a thousand words!
"Loon, formally known as Troy, had his first hike today thanks to you guys and he LOVED it! Thanks for the amazing pupper!"
If you`d like to share your pet adoption story with us and keep us up to date on what your furry, feathered, or scaly friend is doing now, please check out the Happy Homes page on our website. We love hearing from you!
