In the Spotlight:
Happy Tails Kimber!
Once upon a time, a resilient, beautiful, American Bulldog mix named Kimber arrived at our rescue with 10 adorable puppies by her side. Kimber was a devoted mama to her pups. Each one found a loving forever home, but Kimber’s journey to happiness took a little longer.
​
For four years, Kimber watched countless dogs find their families, always with a wagging tail and hope in her eyes. Despite her long wait, she never gave up. She kept her playful spirit, always ready for a hike or attending the next adoption event, and dreamed of a family who would see the loving, loyal companion she truly was.
​
Then, her perfect family found her! Kimber’s patience and unwavering hope were rewarded with a family that adores her. Now, Kimber’s days are filled with adventure and love. Whether it’s exploring nature or snuggling up on the sofa, she is finally living the life she always deserved.
​
Kimber’s story is a reminder of how vital rescues are in giving dogs a second chance to find their forever homes. Every dog deserves the opportunity to live their best life, and adopting—rather than shopping—can make that possible. Dogs like Kimber are waiting for families who will love and cherish them, and by choosing adoption, you not only gain a loyal companion, but also change a life for the better. Kimber’s journey shows us that love has no timeline, and the best endings come to those who wait.
