Ava came to TOESR after the unfortunate demise of her owner, with whom we were acquainted. It was his wish to make sure that his beloved dog go to a home that would love her as he had. With that responsibility in mind, the search began for a perfect home. Sometimes things just click and after numerous applications and some extensive searching, that perfect family became apparent.

There are so many people that helped Ava on her journey to her new home; the prior owner's children, the wonderful staff at Pet Paradise, Allie, Tom, and Gwen and Jim. But we have to give a special thanks to Brenda and Jimmy for providing the love and compassion for Ava in the next phase of her life.
