“Hi JoAnn,

It’s been busy around here. We are having a ball with Loni.  She loves her Lambiepie and does her best to involve everyone. We just love her. Loni has helped me so much.

We lucked out and we have you to thank for trusting us.”

Destiny for Dogs wishes Loni, her new Mom, Dad, and Fur-Brother, Jackson, “Happy Days Ahead!

Special “Thank You” to Stella now Loni’s Foster Mom, Rona. Plus all who assisted this angel to find such a wonderful and loving forever home:

Frankie

🐾💕HEARTWARMING PUPDATE & PRECIOUS PHOTOS FROM FRANKIE’S INCREDIBLE MOM🐾💕

“My old boy, Frankie- catching some rays. He looks fat and old in those pics. Also some from this Easter. Guessing that he must be about 13? These street dogs never tell us how old they are.”

Frankie was rescued from PBCACC by DFD.  Being a young JRT mix, he was extremely HIGH energy, barky, and nippy. Thankfully, Frankie’s “Foster Mom” became a “Foster Failure. ” He needed a seasoned, knowledgeable, committed and extremely dedicated JRT owner. Barbara worked her magic with Frankie and he became the most amazing guy. Frankie assisted his mom with nurturing so many future fosters to successfully find perfect, loving homes. Many thanks to this extraordinary dog and his mom for all that they did to save precious lives. Together, they assisted so many neglected fur babies to live “Happily Ever After” lives. Just no words to express our appreciation to Barbara & Frankie

“I took this “first” picture of Bentley tonight after dinner and Zoomies.  Doesn’t he look so happy?!! Here is a pictures of me and my mom with Bentley.  He is doing really well and brings us such joy and laughter. 

Destiny for Dogs is certainly a wonderful rescue.  I am so glad Bentley was with your organization as it has been nothing but a positive experience.  I love that you keep both the adopter and former owner in the loop. I can’t thank you enough.  

P.S.  My mom is also almost as happy as Bentley is.  That makes my heart soar.”

We all just love amazing updates and “Happy Ever After” photos.

Tucker

🐾💕GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM TUCKER’S MOM🐾💕

“Good morning!☀️Today Tucker gets to be in the spotlight! We are just a week shy of his 4 mo “Gotcha Day” but I couldn’t wait to share these progress photos! Yesterday was spa day at the groomers and truly revealed how much he has filled out 🤩 he is now a super healthy 35.5 lbs 💪 he LOVES his homemade food. He snorts while eating 😂 & may have to change to a slow bowl when it used to take him nearly 30 min to finish his meals. Roasted cinnamon sweet potatoes are by far his favorite treat 😋 As you can see from the photo he even tolerates Finn the cat now! Tucker has decided that he is definitively Lili’s child and is now her official registered Emotional Support Animal 💝 They both need one another & I believe this was a divinely crafted partnership 🙏 We could not be more grateful for this little angel and for everyone who worked so hard to save his life”

Finny

🐾💕GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM FINNY MONROE DONEHAM’S MOM ON HIS 1 YEAR “GOTCHA” ANNIVERSARY🐾💕

Backstory from Finny Monroe’s “Marvelous Mom.” 

“Hi, looking back at my first emails regarding Finny, I picked him up on July 16, 2022.   That was a great day for me and him.    I told him this morning his new BD is July 4 and per old records he will be 12 years old.”

From his perspective Finny wants to say:

 “Thank you Miss

JoAnn. You saved my life and I am very happy.   I am a Villager now and like all Villagers I’m retired and my favorite sport is riding in a golf cart every evening.  It’s so fun and we stop at a park and I get to smell every tree and blade of grass and then we continue my ride with my hair blowing smartly.  I’m so cute.

I have a favorite activity and that’s leading Mom to the treat counter and getting a bunch of treats put on my own blanket and spread all around.   I go from treat to treat eating away.  That’s so much fun.   I do this about 3 times a day and once again at bedtime.  

My wish for my birthday is that all dogs could find forever home.  My mommy tells me daily she loves me.   I love her too.   I’ve learned to give her kisses.  I don’t ever growl anymore.  I was just so confused until I found a home.  

Thank you again and again Miss JoAnn for not giving up on finding a home for me. Love Finny.”

🐾💕We are wishing Finny & Family continued “Happy Days Ahead!”

Plus we are all thrilled for Finny and the incredible mom who is truly his “Rescue Angel.”🐾💕

Spencer update

🐾💕GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM SPENCER’S DAD🐾💕
“Hi JoAnn,
It’s been 2 years since we adopted Spencer (formerly known as Sparky), and I thought we should give you an update!  Spencer’s continuing doing very well, he’s grown into a very smart, healthy, and playful dog that brings lots of love and joy to our lives.  He’s still a bit of a barker, and is not too fond of other dogs or other people coming to or walking by the house, and he especially dislikes Amazon trucks which just drive him crazy, although for some reason he has no problem with UPS or FedEx!  He still loves to watch, and bark at, dogs and other animals on TV, but his favorite activity is playing in the backyard, running around chasing after the lizards, or just lounging by the pool.
Thanks again for letting us make Spencer a part of our family!!”


🐾💕We are wishing stunning Spencer and his family continued, “Happy Days Ahead!”🐾💕

Thank you to Dr. Abbott & Staff @ Animal Clinic at Wellington Reserve for taking such great care of Lana. Plus Dr. Abbott for performing a very involved spay due to scar tissue from so many litters which required C-Section.

From Lana’s new mommy. “We’ve renamed her Amber and she already knows her name. She’s perfect in every way. We’ve never had a sweeter little four legged girl. She’s doing very well. I’d say she’s pretty well moved in and has us wrapped around her paw.  She never meets a stranger and is very affectionate. Amber was groomed Monday and our groomer commented how sweet and friendly she is. We’re so thankful that you all allowed us to be her mom and dad. ❤️”
