Erin's Adoption Day Report ...

No adoptions yesterday but several potential adoptions pending

      First, the man interested in possibly adopting either Emily or Shawna for his two-year-old daughter never showed up at PetsMart. Perhaps he decided on a puppy for the little girl and adopted a pup from someone else. We would appreciate it if people would call if their plans change so we can possibly alter our decisions on which dogs to take along to Adoption Day.

      Many families were interested in many of the dogs this Adoption Day. We'll have to see if they come back next Saturday with their other dogs and move forward with the adoption process. We may have even met a family that is willing to foster a dog. Next week could be a record adoption week if some of these potential families come back and if everything works out.
