The "Subaru Loves Pets" supported pet adoptions for Bradford County Humane Society! - Maryanne B
Two remarkable adoptions occurred during the Subaru Loves Pets event during October. First, the pilot who flew nine puppies to safety from high kill shelters and saved them all despite his small airplane's engine failure, was able to adopt this pup who shared his hair-raising experience. He named her "Sky." She's a very sweet pointer pup and she will always mean so much to him because of their shared adventure! Second, Little Ghost, a kitten who came to the shelter with a dreadfully infected eye, was adopted. Ghost was a true Underdog, having lost his eye shortly after the vet examined him. Ghost never lost his playful sweetness, and seemed very relieved after the surgery for the painful infection. Ghost was quickly adopted by a kind woman in Massachusetts when BCHS reached out for a foster. She is the best foster of all, saying, "I will foster him by adopting him as my furever kitty." Bradford County Humane Society is very honored to partner with Williams Subaru of Sayre for Subaru Loves Pets. Everyone at Subaru truly goes the distance for the well-being of our little companions. For every adoption, Subaru of America donates $100.00 during the month of October, and it is so very helpful to the animal shelter.

Thank you Williams Subaru of Sayre for caring about our school children!
Subaru sponsored Maggie to a loving home - Maryanne B
Maggie and her sister were found abandoned at the shelter one cold morning with 13 puppies. They were both nursing the puppies and they were thin and miserable. Maggie was deathly ill with a mammary infection. She had a mastectomy, and then began a long stay at the shelter. She was a big strong pit bull, and too much for many people to take on, even though she was sweet to the core. She got depressed after her sister was adopted. After more than a year, she was featured in a video at Subaru, and adopted! We have an update from her new family. She adores them all, and they adore her. Here she is "under the Christmas tree! Thank you, Patrick Whited for always being willing to hug the big dogs!
