Bessie (tri-colored beagle) was adopted on 5/10/08 and has become a wonderful addition to our household. She is very sweet and inquisitive, has tons of energy, and likes to go for long walks at the open land areas in North Salem. Thanks for all the great work done by everyone at Rescue for Love.

We are the Hernandez family and this is our love story about Tucker our collie. We adopted Tucker from Rescue For Love on 6/8/08. Tucker is a wonderful addition to our family. We could never imagine our family without him. He brings such joy to all of us!! At the pet show in our town, Tucker was voted 'The Best Personality Collie'! Tucker has settled in and has met many of his learning goals. He loves to be with us especially in the livingroom in the evening. He watches over all of us...and we can see the contentment in his eyes! He is home and he loves us as much as we love him. He is our collector...he collects all he can find (envelopes, remotes, and books) and takes them to a corner in our kitchen! Tucker helps himself to food off the center island if we don't secure edibles in the middle out of his reach. We are learning as well as Tucker! It was love at first sight and a bond for all! We wished for a collie and Rescue for Love made our wish come true! A heartfelt thank you to Kristi and Gina.

My husband Steve and I adopted Tashi in February 2008. Today, we could not imagine life without him. He loves to go for long walks in the woods and explore every smell and sound around him. He's affectionate, playful, and just the absolute joy of our lives. We are so fortunate to have adopted such a wonderful addition to our family. Our thanks to Rob & Kristi for making this possible.

We adopted Aurora in April 2008. I was having some difficulty calling her A-roar-a and then we tried Rory (still to hard to say) So Bailey was "born." She came to us as a very shy dog being from a litter of alpha dogs. She has become our "alpha" dog and rules the roost (but still loves our cats.) Bailey is a sweet dog and almost immediately was housebroken, only requiring a week or two of being crated. She is working on her command training and is very smart. She is a wonderful addition to our family. We were looking for the "perfect" dog and she is working on being "that perfect dog." Thank you for posting this sweetie on your site in conjunction with Petfinder. ~ Sincerely, The Cook Family

Tucker loves the water!...one of the last warm days in September, we took him to Sherwood Island in Westport, CT, with my neighbor and her two kids. We've forced him into loving to swim in the water....he would have never been a water dog in a million years but he has become quite the swimmer! We have to keep a long lead on him because he's not that smart when knowing his boundaries in the water! Valerie has taken millions, no billions, of pictures of this dog! He's quite the handsome dog!

Meet Jimmy, our new red and white Siberian Husky that we adopted from Rescue For Love. Jimmy was rescued from Mississippi where he was found wondering in a field. When I first saw Jimmy, I knew he was the dog for us. I can remember him coming to the front door of the Rescue For Love home when we came for our first visit and how excited he was to see us. But first, he would have to meet and get along with our one year old female Siberian Husky, named Nikki. They bonded immediately and played together as if they had known each other for years. I could not wait to bring Jimmy home. We returned that evening and the adoption process was completed. We kept his rescue name because he seemed to answer to it well. Jimmy loves to run in his new fenced in yard, chase after squirrels, and wrestle with Nikki. He is a wonderful, sweet dog and loves to give wet kisses when he wakes up in the morning, but don’t sleep too long because he will let you know its time to wake up. He looks forward to his daily walks. Not a walk goes by without a car slowing down or stopping to see the pair strutting along side by side. We’re thankful each day that we have Jimmy. Thank you Gina and Rescue For Love for saving him. ~ Lee & Mary Teicholz, Danbury, CT

You’ll be happy to know Casey is doing great! She has really become a part of our family and is especially so attached to my husband, Rob. She loves to hang out with us while we’re watching TV or when we take her to go swimming in the lake during the summer or just play around at the nearby dog park. She has settled into a routine nicely and this coming March 1, we will officially have had her for one year! Boy, how time flies. We gave her a new bed for Xmas as well as a big DOG BONE! It’s almost as big as she is. We’ve taken her to 8 weeks of dog training classes but she seems to have a mind of her own. She loves to chew on things. We’ve gone through at least 8 collars, 3 harnesses and about 6 dog beds now. She sleeps right in her bed at the foot of our bed in our bedroom. She is a very playful girl and loves to give hugs and kisses. We get so many compliments on just how loveable she is and how she has the blackest and shiniest coat. We call her our “black stallion” because she is so lean and shiny.

We adopted Quincy (aka Achilles) at approx. 10 wks old, from Rescue for Love in April 2008, after finding him on Petfinder. He is actually the brother of Bailey (aka Aurora) also mentioned on the Rescue for Love website. He was housetrained almost immediately & loves his crate. He knows when it's bedtime & heads in there on his own every night and doesn't make a peep until we open his crate the next morning. He made it through basic obedience, and by no means is perfect, but he's a sweet boy that is a special part of our family. He loves all people and other animals, except our 15 yr old cat doesn't feel the same way, and Quincy loves to torture him any chance he gets ! He really looks after our kids and just loves to be around the family, including rides in the car. He does have his "puppy nipping" moments still but he'll be a year old on February 6th and I have to say he's come a long way & is really starting to mellow out (thank goodness - we had our doubts!) ~ The Estes Family, Sandy Hook, CT
