Summer 2023

Happy Tails Galore!


It's been one happy tail after another since we last updated you.  Our foster/transport team continues to amaze with their dedication and hard work.  Yes, "kitten season" is always a challenge - and 2023 has been no different - but we've taken in the healthy, the puny, the orphaned, the "frisky" and the tempermental and sent them on to their furever homes in the Northeast through our partnership with Road Trip Home.  Want to meet a few?  Say no more!  

And what about the dogs, you ask?

Yep - We sent them to Maine, too!
And the Happy Tails from their new homes???
This is the BEST part!

 

Koko was one of six puppies that transported up north in January.

"I wanted to let you know that I adopted one of your sweet pups from Georgia about three weeks ago. Her name is now Biscuit; she has a ‘big’ brother named Choppe;, and we are already so in love with her. Thank you for rescuing her.  I can assure you she is going to have a wonderful life here. Please feel free to check in anytime."
Thank you Sue Adams for fostering Koko and the rest of the litter.

"My name is Julia and I adopted Bear yesterday up in Cape Ann, Maine. We just recently had to put down our dog of 14 years and although he will always hold a special place in our hearts, we felt it was time ... and Bear has been amazing. Her new name is 'Emma' and she fits right in. My friend and I took her for a long walk yesterday and she enjoyed it."
Thank you  to  foster Mom, Yolanda Sanchez.

"Happy Memorial Day! I want you to know that yesterday I signed the final papers to adopt Zoey. She is an absolute joy! I picked her up the day after she was spayed. It was nice to have some background on her. Obviously, in spite of being a stray, she has had a good life. That and her amazing little personality is going to make her my new best friend. She is making friends with everyone in the neighborhood she meets while on her walks. Thank you for your care and for sending her up north to me."
Thank you  to foster parents Bud and Claudia Jessup.

 

ZOEY
 
Daisy was adopted a few weeks back after being transported to Bangor, Maine. She was the last puppy of eight that we trapped from an industrial area in Cornelia. She was about 12 weeks old and very scared. We placed her with a wonderful foster family and they helped her overcome her fears. She found her best life with her new family in Bangor!
Thank you Ashley Chidester and family for helping little Daisy.

HHS VOLUNTEERS SHARE "STORY TIME" AT CLARKESVILLE LIBRARY
Clarkesville-Habersham Public Library sponsors a wonderful Summer Reading Program for our county's preschoolers.  Each Wednesday at 10:30 AM, local volunteers gather with the youngsters to read, craft and hopefully, inspire a lifelong love of books.

On July 5, volunteers from Habersham Humane Society were thrilled to participate by reading Harry the Dirty Dog and I Want a Dog - followed by a crafting session to create paper plate doggie faces.  The result was a fun, energetic and educational experience for the kids, the parents and the HHS participants.  We had so much fun that we have volunteered to lead StoryTime each Wednesday in August!  Bring your preschooler and join us!
