Molly's Story
Molly is an HSPPR alumni and we’ve been together for three years. I was introduced to Molly by a dog walking volunteer and took her home the same day. I wanted a dog who was sassy, spunky, and down for a lifetime of adventures. I couldn’t have found a better dog. I had recently moved out on my own after a long-term relationship, and despite the boxes still left to be unpacked Molly made herself at home right away - sleeping under the covers the very first night. She was an instant improvement to my routine helping get me out for daily walks and adventures. We love to go camping, road-tripping, hiking, kayaking, and she spends hours in the summer chasing off the squirrels at my garden!
Molly was brought in through HSPPR’s Transfer program from a shelter in New Mexico that was struggling to find an adopter for her. We’re unsure how long Molly spent in a kennel, but when she first arrived home she was incredibly nervous and would cower and “spin” as a way to burn her excess anxiety. I’m happy to report that with trust and time, Molly only spins when she’s excited and gets to run on the trails every day.
When you adopt a pet you’re saving two lives, the pet you rescued and the next pet that needs an open kennel and shelter. In my case with Molly, she brought the spunk back into my life too. We are truly better together! I’m fundraising for HSPPR’s Pawtoberfest to raise money in honor of Molly and dogs just like her. I hope you join me so we can continue to make happy tails, and happy hearts!
