Celeste, Primrose, and 52 of their friends found happiness this week!

Celeste and Primrose may have come in from different situations, but they left as best friends and now sisters.

Celeste came into our care as a transfer from another shelter with her sister Magenta (who is in foster care now.) She was scared and timid when she got here and really wanted nothing to do with our staff. Just a couple days after being here our staff started to notice that Celeste didn’t seem like she was feeling her best either, so they did a couple tests and it turned out that she had parvo. Our medical team quickly went to work on saving Celeste’s life. With there care and dedication, Celeste survived Parvo! Since she ended up back in dog medical, she didn’t get a chance to really interact with people, other than the medical team, so her trust in us was still extremely low. This was where Primrose came in.

Sweet Primrose came to us as a stray, and was a bit shy but would warm up quickly to the right friend. She came in with another dog, Pita (who has been adopted!) so we knew that Primrose liked other dogs. Turns out she LOVES other dogs. Primrose shines through the most when she has another canine companion at her side. We decided to try Primrose and Celeste together to see if they could bring out the fun side of each other and to see if it would help Celeste come out of her timid shell. It Worked! Primrose and Celeste were instant best friends! We noticed a huge change in both of their confidence.

Primrose ended up going into foster and we noticed that Celeste immediately started to go back into that shell. The foster reached out to our foster team and say that they loved Prim so much that they wanted to adopt her! We all were so happy for Primrose but were still worried about Celeste’s decline. Our foster team spoke to them letting them so how happy we were for them and Primrose, and also explained what was going on with Celeste and if they had room and would be willing to foster her, so she and Primrose could be together. They said yes and came to get Celeste the next day. It didn’t take long for them to decide that they wanted to adopt both girls! Celeste and Primrose both became foster fails and became sisters. We are so happy for them and their new family.
