Capone

CAPONE

"We adopted our dog Capone from the shelter in November of 2007.We had been to several adoption events and were taking our time to find just the right dog . We then made contact with some of the foster coordinators and after they got to know us more and got to know what kind of dog would blend in well with our lifestyle, they said they had a dog who was "darn near perfect" . We were a little hesitant at first because Capone was a little bigger of a dog than we "thought" we were looking for, but he ended up being just perfect for us.

Capone settled right into his home in about a week or two and we all have been happy every since. He is very good at playing catch in the backyard ( he loves his tennis balls and football) as well as loves going on walks with us. As we have gotten to know Capone and love him, we love what a colorful personality he has and how well behaved he is as well, which is a reflection of all the time/training and love he received from everyone at the shelter and everyone with the foster program. Capone came to us already being crate trained, clicker trained and house broken, as well as knowing commands such as "sit" and "shake".

Everyone at the shelter was so helpful and did such a wonderful job caring for him during his 10 months at the shelter(we can not believe how such a great dog was not adopted sooner). They also made the adoption process an experience we will never forget and will most certainly recommend to others. Would would like to thank most notably, Libby, Erin and Doreen for your work and caring for Capone. It was the time you took in training him and loving him that undoubtedly made our adoption of Capone so successful. Keep up the good work, and thank you very much from all of us.
