Damon is my name and I think I was destined for another life….

In this life I’ve had it pretty rough. Animal testing, confinement, and whole bunch of fear and sleepless nights - for me and my buddies. I was pretty grumpy. I was pretty sad underneath the grumpiness too.

We got out though and I tell you, I never saw it coming! Next thing I know people are caring for me and I'm dreaming of all the things I could do and see. So for starters I like to look at my reflection, I’m pretty darn handsome I must say - don’t you think?

I like to take all things in, not just my reflection!!! I love looking up at the sky and seeing the airplanes, I follow them as far as I can see - I think it’s because I used to spend my time thinking about escape. AND the TV, how I love watching the Olympics - especially the horses, I love the horses.

Anyway enough about me, what about you. What do you like to dream about?

I’d love to hear!!! read more

Hi! I’m Bay,

I’ve just been released from what seems like a very long time cooped up with a bunch of other dogs. We didn’t know anything but cold touches and not feeling very well. We didn’t know love at all. We had each other but we didn’t really know what to do.

Then in a matter of days we were taken and delivered to this beautifully sunny yard with all of these humans who seemed so happy to see us. I wasn’t too sure about how to get along with all of these people and dogs, but it only took a few days for me to cuddle up to the humans and make a new dog friend. I still don’t like small spaces but I’m really opening up to this big new world and I’m really excited to share it with a family who wants to slowly show me new things!

Bucket list: Rubs, scratches, love in a forever way! read more

It’s me Brogan,

Here I am. I was in a place where I wished so much I could smell new things and play, but I had no one to play with and no adventures on the horizon. Now I’ve entered this whole new world - it’s a puppy’s play land and I’m smelling and checking out all of it.

Before this all I smelled was fear!!! Now I run free. I toss pillows in the air - I’m actually not sure I supposed to do that, but the people looking after me think it’s really cute. I drag rugs all over the house because it feels good on my teeth, but my fav thing to do is to steal shoes because I always know someone will come looking for them and give me even more attention.

When I’m relaxing I like to watch the big black box with moving pictures on it - sometimes there’s even other dogs barking on it and it makes me want to jump up and down and bark too. I am getting so used to this life, it’s like a dream!

Fresh air, play, love and fun, that’s what I’m shooting for, you? Are you in for that? read more

Nice to meet you, I’m Dahlia

I’m already 10 and I’ve spent my whole life in a laboratory testing facility. It’s been very hard and I never thought I’d see this day - BUT here I am and I’m going to make the most of my time!

So far I think I’m adjusting pretty well to freedom, but who knows, the sky is the limit. What I do know: I love playing with other doggies, I have truly never played before and even though I’m a bit older, I feel like I’m 10 years young! And car rides, really, I was so scared to get into that big machine, but then I felt the wind on my face and my ears were back, it was exhilarating!

Plus I am so free now that I get to go in and out of a little door that looks like it’s made just for me, so I run into the grass and then I come in for treats - oooh heaven!

This is the stuff dreams are made of and I’m looking for someone special to share it with. read more
