Hey, it's me Louie!

Louie was a shelter favorite among staff and volunteers. We realized what a great dog he was but for some reason, he wasn't getting noticed by our adopters.



We are lucky to have formed a great relationship with Great Dog Rescue of New England  and many of our harder to adopt animals get transported up North where there is actually a shortage of available dogs. Spaying and Neutering is so effective that overpopulation isn't the same problem as we experience in the South,



After many months with us and still no forever home, Louie traveled to find an immediate family waiting for him up North. He is living a great life in his new forever home. Louie even has a new wardrobe!

  1. This is such a wonderful thing to read! Not only how Louie has a great home but how well the North is doing in helping to control the pet population. Maybe we can learn something from them down here! Thanks for all you do at APRA!

  2. How great if we followed the lead taken by the North when it comes to spay/neuter. Education is the key. It's sad that it doesn't seem to be a big priority in the South as we have one of the highest euthanasia rates in the country.
