He just knew he found his forever family. After several baths and a luxurious hot oil treatment at our local groomer, we picked him up. He had only met us briefly and just by the sound of our voice, he could not see us over the 6 foot wall, he knew we were there for him and he gracefully leaped over and was forever bonded with us. When we brought him home it was clear he had never been inside a house. He ran from room to room, in and out of showers, etc. He was excited to bond with our very first dog, Rocco. As time went on, we knew there was something extraordinary with him. Wherever we brought him, he bonded with all and he was a magnet to all people. He was soothing. I saw an article in our local newspaper about pet therapy and knew this was the job for Cody. Without any training, I took him to get tested to be a certified therapy dog. He earned a 97% (and he only needed a 75% to pass!), and that is how the story began. Cody, my daughter and I spent countless hours at nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, schools for children with disabilities, centers for adults with traumatic brain injuries, local schools and libraries and the list goes on. Everyone loved Cody and the therapy he provided was magical. Sadly, in the summer of 2020, at approximately only 7 years old, he passed from cancer. He still lives on in our hearts and thoughts every day and we are so lucky to have shared 6 years with him.
She spends her days trying to play with our other 3 dogs and is pretty relentless! She loves to watch the squirrels outside and runs from the doors to the windows to follow them. She is very smart and is now taking agility classes. Of course she had no training when we adopted her but is working very hard on her leash skills, house training and basic commands. She loves to play with her toys, she takes them all out of the basket at once. Hopefully we can teach her how to clean up!
When I told someone about it, they said I should call the seamstress and tell her to go to Dr. I thought she would think I was crazy. I called her a few days later and she told me she was in the hospital and needed a stent put in her heart. Crazy!

when we lost Cody to cancer, timber was heartbroken from losing his best friend and daily playmate and lost his zest for life. One day, we found him in our backyard just staring at the back of our home. We knew we had to get another dog to save Timber. In July of 2020, Mt Pleasant Animal Shelter had just received 12 dogs and none were listed on the website yet. We saw Jax and stayed with him until the shelter closed to ensure no one else could adopt him. He was cleared by the veterinarian the next day and joined our family. Jax was a street dog in the south, a shelter found him and he stayed in the shelter for 3 weeks. When no one came to claim him, he was transported to NJ. He loves everyone he meets, dogs and people of all ages and sizes.
