Scout is Adopted!

Scout joins Shaggy in the backyard of her new home

A rare story of opposite rescues now joined together. The story starts with our first rescue, Shaggy, who lived homeless for close to a year in an undeveloped property in the middle of the high-rent Galleria area. The other rescue, Scout, had a different life as part of a pack of homeless dogs in the Warehouse District of Downtown Houston.

Shaggy's and Scout’s paths crossed when they were boarded together after their rescue. During their brief meeting in boarding, you would have thought they had known each other their whole life. They played together with expressions of happiness and joy, the way it’s meant to be for these lovely creatures. Sadly, their rescue life took them into different directions. But by an act of faith, their paths crossed again.

Shaggy was very lucky and was adopted soon by a wonderful owner. Scout waited close to a year. We experienced an unfortunate situation when we almost lost Scout. Remembering their prior relationship, Shaggy’s owner heard of the story and she decided to take Scout into foster care.  

Their reunion was huge. They seem to remember instantly where they left off. Better news came a few days ago, when Shaggy’s owner decided to adopt Scout as well. These two rescue girls from different lives are now a rare chance of happiness that not many receive.
