River Adopted!

River Adopted!

Amidst all the angst we are going through with the Erlichia crisis we have some really good news! River was adopted! River is such a character and Blake who adopted Matty and Ophelia always had a soft spot for him so a few weeks ago she decided to adopt him. She came last weekend to get him.
We were initially worried as River can be moody and unfriendly at times and Matty, can be very possessive of Blake so we thought there might be adjustment issues. But there were none! All three adult dogs, with histories of extreme abuse immediately settled in with Blake. It's all about how you treat them and give them what they need.

So River has found his own pack and he is very happy!!!
These happy endings are only possible because people share their hard-earned money with us - every 10, 20 , 30 pesos adds up and allows us to keep the Sanctuary going, give the optimum care for the dogs and find homes which will allow them to thrive.  Thank you Blake for all that you and your family do for DAS.

You can read more about River's story on her profile page here.


Check out our growing list of wonderful dogs waiting for a new family.
