"Lobo" has been reunited with his family!!!!


Things are not always what they seem. A family gets a dog from the Internet, has him for 6 hours and he bolts out the door, unaware of his new surroundings.  He goes missing for almost 6 months .... that dog was "Lobo" and he has been reunited with his family this weekend.  Here is a little note from his family:
 

I just wanted to let everyone know that Tank "Lobo" is doing quite amazing! Although he will only let my oldest daughter & I pet, love and kiss him. I gave him his meds this morning and he got a bath, which he LOVED!! The kisses I got from him this morning brought tears to my eyes! He loves when I sit on the floor with him, he will come right up to me and sit in front of me and just look at me with those adorable eyes and I just love on him and kiss him (You guys would be amazed!) He is eating a lot and was sitting with me this morning while I made breakfast for my family :) He even had a little piece of bacon, a piece of bread and an egg! :) He is such a good boy and yes...I will have him so spoiled!! I am so grateful for the SPCA and I thank-you for everything that you've done for us! From the bottom of my heart and from my husband and 4 children~ thank-you for the most anticipated reunion we have waited so long for. We are extremely happy and don't feel like we have a piece of us missing anymore! I will have more updates to come!! THANK-YOU!!!

Thank you soo much to everyone for responding to our call for help for the 14 Chihuahua's that we took in that were rescued from a hoarding situation in PA.  The response was huge!  It is soo wonderful how everyone in the community (from the Humane Officers, the Rescue team, the HSUS, the local shelters and the community) came together in this time of need to help these little guys. 

All of the Chihuahua's we took in were adopted.
