Marcie finds love again at CT Humane - Susan W
Marcie was 8 years old when she suddenly found herself starting over. Her family was moving and couldn't bring her along. Luckily, she arrived at the Connecticut Humane Society in Westport. It can be hard for a pup nearing their senior years to adjust to all new sights, new smells, new people and new routines, but everyone at CHS did their best to help Marcie be comfortable as she got ready for a new home. Marcie received the veterinary care she needed in CHS' staff medical department, and before long, she found her new parents! Thanks to friends like Dan Perkins Subaru who support pets like Marcie, this pup is now loving car rides, walks and cuddles with her new people! She settled into her new home like she'd always lived there, and her new humans are head over heels for her. She's even shown them that while she's a bit up there in years, she still has some puppy energy! And Marcie's adoption helped another pet in need...that's because Dan Perkins Subaru donated $100 to CHS pets in honor of her adoption! For more information on pets at CHS, visit CThumane.org.
A fresh start for pets in need - Susan W
Sheila the Chihuahua mix loved getting pet. So much so, that if you stopped petting her, she’d push her nose into your hand for more! Staff and volunteers at the Connecticut Humane Society in Westport loved giving her attention, but are happy she’s now being spoiled in a loving home of her own. And thanks to Dan Perkins Subaru, another pet can take her place at CHS and get their own fresh start. That’s because Dan Perkins Subaru donated $100 to CHS for each cat and dog adoption in October for Subaru Loves Pets Month, to put toward veterinary care for more critters! So many more pets just like Sheila are getting the care they need at CHS, thanks to the dealership’s support. Visit CThumane.org for more information on the pets.
