stories of peacelovedogs alumni and their happily ever afters

Christie Rackley

Marley's Story

Christie Rackley
October 25, 2016

"Had it not been for them saving him, and Darci rushing to New Jersey, I would never have had the pleasure of meeting the dog version of myself. So for that, I owe Darci and Melissa everything for bringing him to me."

Moby's Story

Christie Rackley
October 21, 2016

"That dog had been adopted but she told me she'd be happy to find me the perfect fit. I'm not being cute when I say she is a matchmaker — she truly is. She sent me photos of two dogs she thought might be a good fit and that's when I laid eyes on Moby. It was love."

Jasper’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“Fostering him has proved to me that I am stronger and more resilient than I give myself credit for; even when I so often wish I didn’t have to be. He has reminded me that I am capable of doing difficult things, even in the face of adversity...”

Tara Sollman

Penny’s Story

Tara Sollman
October 14, 2016

“Melissa took action and was en route to save our dog before a huge thunderstorm hit that night in Texas. The whole time she texted me photos of our dog and updated me. I felt that night that there was truly a guardian angel saving our dog.”

Millie’s Story

Tara Sollman
October 14, 2016

“Over the last 40 years all of our dogs have been rescues. I have never had such a great experience as working with peacelovedogs and Rescue Road Trips. These are wonderful and loving people.”

Christie Rackley

Aggie's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Aggie arrived safe and sound a week before Christmas — best present ever.  I think it was love at first sight for him, just like it was for me. I included our first picture together. I had just told him we were going home — to his forever home — and he kissed me... multiple times."

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Finnegan's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Now almost two years later, I can't imagine what life was like BF (before Finnegan). He is my best friend, the love of my life, the apple of my eye. He's my little shadow (although he'd probably say the same about me)."

Tara Sollman
October 14, 2016

Moose’s Story

Tara Sollman
October 14, 2016

“So I sent the picture to my husband... he didn’t even ask any questions, he said that’s our baby when do we get him? But... Texas... Bill says well we can drive there right? We live in upstate New York... so ummm no?”

Christie Rackley

Bradley’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“The entire process was extremely pleasant and stress free. I never had any doubts and knew that the only concern at peacelovedogs was that these pups find the loving homes and families they deserve.”

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Luna's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"I can’t say enough about what these families do to give these dogs a good start. I can’t imagine opening my home and loving a dog and then having the strength to let them go. But somehow, thankfully, they do it over and over again." 

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Annabelle's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Princess Annabelle will always have a place in my heart and letting her go made it possible for me to help save another life pulled from a shelter. Fostering has opened a part of my soul that I never knew existed and I am a better person for it."

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

June’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“The day June left with Greg via Rescue Road Trips, Melissa texted me and told me that a piece of her heart had left on that truck. There are no words that can describe the love and compassion Melissa has for the animals she fosters and for the work that she does.”

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Fenway's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Fenway is home now. In a short time it's as if he has always been here. And, while I think of our sweet little girl often, I know she is happy that we took this journey and opened our hearts again."

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Hazel’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“We already had a dog that we got from a Breeder. I didn’t know at the time how important it is to rescue. My best friend is a big advocate of rescue and she convinced us that if we looked hard enough we could find what we were looking for in a rescue.”

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Calvin’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“After talking with Melissa a few times and feeling like she really understood who we were and what we wanted, I asked her to pick or find a dog for us. She told me that she thought Calvin (formerly Lego) would be great for us.”

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Gryffindog's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Gryffindog has changed my life. He is the reason I am excited to get home after class and is the best study buddy. peacelovedogs is a trustworthy, transparent rescue that made out-of-state adoption possible (and easy!) for me."

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Echo's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Echo arrived on a cold rainy April morning via Greg with Rescue Road Trips. We brought him home and he immediately made friends with our dog, Luna. Fast forward to about a month later and we were a complete foster failure and adopted him!"

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Bruno’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“I had a little pug that was 12 years old and became very ill. Unfortunately, I had to put him down and was heartbroken. I love dogs and missed my little buddy and have so much love to give so I decided to adopt a rescue rather than purchase from a breeder.”

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Patty, Ellie, and Dayna’s Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

“These three little fur babies have brought my husband and I so much joy. They camp and kayak with us and go wherever we go.”

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

Parker's Story

Christie Rackley
October 14, 2016

"Parker had been at peacelovedogs for 9 months, because he is "just a Poodle" and everyone wanted a Doodle, which is normally some kind of dog breed mixed with a poodle. Well, "just a Poodle" was perfect for us!"

Meet Cinnamon! She was surrendered to a vet clinic a few months ago by her owner, they requested her to be euthanized because "she could no longer produce puppies." Luckily they signed her over to a rescue friend of ours and she came to PLD. She was a solid mat and had to be shaved down. She is 8 years old, 13 lbs, sweet, low key and very loving! She just completed heartworm treatment and is ready for her happily ever after! ❤️ In Houston but available up North via Rescue Road Trips. #adoptdontshop #shihtzusofinstagram #spayandnueter #shihtzu #peacelovedogs
Delilah's puppies a year ago and now! Sgt. Pepper, George Bailey & Stella. #adoptdontshop #puppiesofinstagram #spayandnueter #dogsofnewengland #fluffysquad

WARNING: GRAPHIC PICTURE! Heeeeyy Arnold! It's amazing that the difference in the top and bottom picture is less than 2 weeks! Arnold was surrendered to a shelter by his owner with a 7-8" tumor on his leg and heartworm positive. He was defeated and would barely move. We had his tumor removed right away and with a few days there was a change in attitude! He's 2-3 years old, 14 lbs, active, happy, loves everyone he needs, good with other dogs and overall is just a fun dog! ❤️ He is completing heartworm treatment and will be available soon. The histopath report shows the tumor was benign and that will be provided to a potential adopter. He's in Houston but available up North via Rescue Road Trips. #adoptdontshop #saveashelterdog #terriersofinstagram #norwichterrier #scruffysquad
