Herman & Toby Adopted--in AZ!

Yep, that's right! These two sweet brothers finally got adopted when someone read their sad story on Petfinder.com. The only problem was that the couple lived in Tucson and we only adopt out in California (because we always do home checks).

Well, we talked to the couple at length, and they were so patient with the process. Finally, a rescuer who lives in AZ did the home check. All was well, so I rented a car and drove Herman and Toby to their new home.

We took off on a Saturday and got there that night. I spent the night at their new home, helping the dogs and the new owners to get acclimated. I was sad that I could only stay overnight, but I had to get back home.

I was sad to say good bye to Herman and Toby also, but so happy to finally have these two loves in their forever home--and together too! No small feat to keep two dogs that love each other (and are brothers to boot) together, especially two mastiff mixes.

But we did it! And Herman and Toby can now live happily ever after.

P.S. Herman is the brown brindle and Toby is the black dog. Aren't they adorable? I sure think so! :-D
