COOPER
We are so pleased to have Cooper. He is a good dog and is so loving.
He is such a sweet boy. He can sit and stay, will wait on command, will go down sometimes, and is walking well on leash. He
is such a snuggle bum, he sleeps right up on our pillows! I hope all of your future adoptions work out as well as this one.
We love him lots. Amy Kris and Kenzie
CLARISSE
My name for a time was Kaci
I’m now called Clarisse for you see
I have found a new home
Now I don’t need to roam
I’ve lots of food and a sister Daisy
Daisy wasn’t
quite sure what to do
The first time I came into view
She had a long face
Thought
I’d taken her place
But now knows there’s enough
room for two
I simply can’t thank you enough
Though
my life started out pretty rough
From your care and concern
My life’s taken a turn
And I’m learning the meaning of love
MAGGIE
Maggie came into our lives on January 22nd, 2010 when we came all the
way from Bridgewater to adopt her. We fell in love with her face on-line and knew we had to add her to our pack. Maggie
proved to be a challenge when we got her home, she saw that we had three cats and she quickly let us know that she was going
to do what a beagle does best and hunt them. Nearly three weeks later we have made great progress in rehabilitating
Maggie, she is quickly becoming a beautiful, happy and healthy beagle.
Her two older brothers have embraced her and love to play with her, as you can see from the pictures
she is settling in beautifully. The second is a picture of all three of them, Jasper, Gunther & Maggie with
their knit blankets mom made for them.
Thank you to the SPCA in
Yarmouth for taking care of her until she found her forever home.Adam and Kim

BIG BOY
Relaxing
Big Boy, who was known in the shelter as Wow because of his distinct
"meow", has been adopted into a loving home on a large acreage, where he can relax and enjoy the scenery.
His mother says, "he likes his new home and is so content and we just love him so. Big boy has a new sister
named Raggs and she is a Llapsa and they are getting to know one another. Be assured Big Boy has a good home
and people who love him." "Our wish would be that all the animals in the world would be safe ---my husband
being a farmer all his life, has helped us feel that way."
Thanks,
Marsha &Leslie
BUDDY
Buddy has found his way into our hearts and everyone
who has met him really likes him. When we visited him at the shelter he seemed special and when you said he was
such a good dog, you were absolutely right. We took him to the beach and let him off of his leash so he could run freely.
He loved it and we found out that he can be excited and energetic! Boy, can he run! And he loves water too.
Our cats are realizing that this new furry creature in their house is not going to bother them
and so they are adjusting and becoming used to his presence. The only time Buddy barks is if someone, including us, comes
in the door and then as soon as he sees that it is "just a person" coming in, he stops and comes over to greet us/them.
He is enjoying his new yard and his new house and chew toys and squeaky toy. It was pretty funny last evening
as I decided to lay on the floor by Buddy and he laid there for a minute then stood up and stared at the sofa, slowly
lifted a paw onto the sofa, and then another, and very quietly jumped up and laid himself down. I laughed and said
to Sean, "What's wrong with this picture? I'm on the floor and the dog's on the couch!" It was too cute!!
He is such a calm,
loving and loyal companion to us. When we are out for our walks everyone admires him. He doesn't seem too excited
about snow though. I thought that being part Husky he would love playing in it. He'd rather be inside playing with
his toys or curled up having a nice, warm nap.

SHADY
We adopted Shady on Dec. 9 and thought we would let you know that he is doing
really well in his new home. He is still adjusting to our dog, who loves to bath our cats, but Shady isn't too sure
about that yet. He has taken a real liking to our bed, where he gets to relax on our feather pillows.
At night he tries to push us off the pillows.
Khoja a wonderful, gentle cat. He still doesn't like to be held
for very long, but he's very affectionate in his way. He has become more playful as time has passed, but as you see
from the picture, sleeping is his favourite activity.

MACEY
Can I tell you what a perfect little dog she is? Almost daily
I comment that I just can't understand how she could have ended up at the SPCA. She is just the best and sooo much fun
to have around. I take her a lot of places with me and she loves everybody and all other animals. She curls up
with the cats here quite often. Right now she is playing with her favorite toy, a sheep that's pretty much the same
size as her (they kinda look alike). The picture is her on the sleeping bag. She loved camping and couldn't
wait to get her furry little butt in that sleeping bag, even rolled up she wouldn't stay off of it.
Thanks,
Sonia
SASHA & CHARLOTTE
We adopted "Sasha & Charlotte" a short time ago ago
and they have been a perfect fit to our home....it seems as if they have been part of our family for a long time. Of
course, for the first couple of days they were quite nervous but now they are both very comfortable and happy here.
Thanks so much for letting us have them in our lives. We go to bed every night now with a symphony of purring all around
us as they already like to sleep with us.
Sincerely,
Kim, Paul & Emily
CHARLIE
Hello to all you wonderful folks at the Yarmouth SPCA,
Chris
and I adopted a beautiful 15 month old German Shepherd from you recently and we wanted to send you a note to tell you how
Charlie is doing! It seems like Charlie has adjusted very well. He enjoys spending time with our two other dogs Chester (Golden
Retriever) and Zoey (Shepherd/Rottweiler Mix)
As you may
remember Charlie is quite a handful on a leash! We have discovered that if we take him outside with our other two dogs he
can go off leash with no problems! When the other two are called in Charlie follows as a willing participant.
We have started obedience training Charlie and are currently working on the ‘stay’,‘come’
and ‘leave it’ commands. He is also learning that he will not receive food from the table as we believe he may
have had his share of table scraps in the past.
Charlie loves coming for drives in the car and recently we took all three dogs down to Parrsboro for Charlie to meet
and visit with family. He loves going for long walks on old four wheeler trails and he is hard to keep out of the water! Our
Chester also loves the water and is delighted to have a buddy to go puddle swimming with!
Thank you again for the beautiful dog – we hope you enjoyed the update!
Love,
Chris, Jenn and the rest of the
animal kingdom!
Hello to all my friends at the shelter:
I am writing to give you an update on my new digs. We drove a long way, from
Yarmouth to Lawrencetown and I was very comfortable in the back of my new Mom's car. She put the back seats forward
and put a blanket for me on the floor. When we got to my new home, my new Dad was there to greet me. He thinks
I am a fine handsome guy and likes me very much. I had an accident in my new home but nobody got mad at me because they
understood that I was very excited and scared. I don't think I will do that again. I was very embarressed!
I like my forever home and my people treat me good.
Across the street from us is a cow pasture and I would like to go over there and keep them all togeather but my Mom says that
I can't go out alone until I go to school and learn proper manners. I am excited about that.
My Dad gave me a new name, he says that it is now Crosby. There is
a human that he admires and thats his name. So when they say 'come Crosby'.....thats me and I come running.
My Mom made an appointment with the groomer to have me bathed and groomed......whatever
that is. I know it will be fun because we have a lot of fun togeather.
Thank you for taking me in and finding me a good forever home. I am One Lucky Dog.
Sincerely,
Crosby
