Cinderella the Dachshund Puppy

I noticed that Cinderella (AKA Rosie) is on the website under This is what rescue is all about and I thought I would send you some updated pictures so you can have an "after" photo.When we first got her she barely weighed 5 lbs and had to eat wet food from a spoon. Now she eats normal puppy food twice a day and weighs 12 lbs . It still takes patience and about 80 minutes a day to feed her but she is worth every minute.

We are all doing well! Sandberg (formally known as Bruski- he never really answered to Bruski, so we changed his name) acclimated into the household almost immediately. Sandberg is a happy, busy kid. He LOVES to go for walks and sleep on satin sheets with our girls. He's proven to be a good fit for our family--he's definitely a keeper! Thank you (and Pet Rescue by Judy) for finding him and letting us adopt him. Sincerely, Julie

Thomas the Lab Puppy

Dear “Pet Rescue By Judy” staff and volunteers, Thank you so much for rescuing our precious Barkley, formerly “Thomas the Lab Puppy”. We were running some errands at the Oviedo Marketplace back in February of this year and we were surprised to see that you had a location there so we went inside just to check things out. We already had two older Beagles so we weren’t looking for a new pet but when we met Barkley he won our hearts completely. Thank you for making sure we didn’t make an impulsive decision by asking that we bring our other dogs and all of our family members to meet him and to make sure that he would be a good fit for our family. We have never regretted his adoption and we feel so lucky that he is with us. Barkley gives great cuddles to anyone who wants to love on him and we are lucky there are five of us because he loves to be loved. Even our Beagles who don’t cuddle each other will cuddle Barkley. Our male Beagle has been so happy to have Barkley as a playmate, they chase each other, play tug-of-war, and they play an interesting game of keep away with squeaky toys they love to compete for. He isn’t perfect, he has some separation anxiety issues and chews the inside mat by our front door whenever we’re gone for longer than he likes. So we buy cheap mats because it’s a small price to pay for a wonderful dog. Thank you for everything you do to help the pets you rescue. If Barkley could talk I’m sure he would tell you how thankful he is for what you did for him, but since he can’t, let us know if you’d like us to drop by so he can thank you with a few hundred licks. With much gratitude, David, Jacquie, Isabel, Ashley, Jay, and our pets Buffy, Ben, and Barkley

Tooney the Puppy

Hi, We adopted Sam & Stella back in January & wanted to give you a 'happy paws' update. The girls love their new fenced in back yard & are very found of chasing waves at Smyrna Dunes beach. The stinkers enjoy all wood & fabric products (chomp, chomp, rip, tear) so they are still enjoying the their cage at bedtime. Although, their affinity for furniture has been decreasing. Both are now a whopping 9 months old (all of the pictures attached are roughly 5 months of age except for image 100 which is approx. 8 months). They have a clean bill of health but are quite fearful of our vet who pokes & prods them :-) Those treats at the end of each appointment are well earned. Stella has just reached 65 lbs but the 45 lb rascal Sam rules the house! They have quite a nice muscle tone with their grain free food, Evo. Our destroyers' favorites are pig ears, rawhides, squeeky toys, sticks and their sisters' collars. Yes, collars make an extremely fun tug of war game. And, somehow the squeekies have survived an unexpected long life. Our mutt-ley crew very much enjoyed their vacation to the mountains for hiking this past spring. They learned that the mountains have new smells and we learned that short leashes work very well! We are thankful to have such great 'all-paw' family members! And, we hope that all of your rescues find good homes. Anita & Dave.
