Hello everybody! Ever since Shadow has been here in the program he has been doing good. Shadow LOVES people – everyone he met he just has to give them a kiss. Shadow loves the attention, most of all Shadow is very dog friendly and he loves the female dogs, LOL. Shadow touched me the other day. I was watching a show called “Long Lost Family.” There was an episode that was very touching. Shadow was laying on my bed. The episode had hit me, I felt the joy of this woman being reunited with her son who was put up for adoption. A tear had rolled down my face. Shadow thought I was crying, he put his head on my lap then looked at me like he was saying “are you ok?”
He’s also learning his commands and getting better at them!

Good morning everybody. On March 8, 2025 I received Shadow. Shadow is a pit with a lot of energy and a BIG heart which is full of LOVE. Since Shadow came into the Program he’s been full of joy, greeting everybody with open arms, spreading his love everywhere. He’s not shy and he is eager to learn. I know he’s a gray pit but sometimes I think he might be a gray mountain goat because he loves to be on top of his crate, just laying there waiting on me to come back LOL. He also learned his commands in rapid time!

Shadow joined the HOPE Program today! So far he seems like a chill older guy who just wants to be loved and aims to please! He has the confidence of a guy who has overcome a lot in his life so far, and our goal with him is continue his journey from a dog with severe skin issues to a well-mannered gentleman who just wants a family of his own. Stay tuned!
