We LOVE to get updates on our adopted dogs (and cats too) and hear about their new lives! Below are some stories from adopters who were kind enough to share their experiences with their lucky new family member. Submit your story.
Beau
We adopted Beau after not having had a dog in the house for five years. We found him on the IDR website. We were struck by what a handsome guy he is, and then read on to find out that he was 8 years old and a mellow guy. We brought him home the first [...]
Coco
Coco (formerly Cinnamon when adopted) has been the love of our lives. She is so lively and energetic. She always makes me smile and laugh even when i’m having a bad day. She really is such a good dog, and has made our home complete. She has found a forever home with us, and we [...]

Soon we changed her name to Nellie [...]

Angus (Previously known as BOB)
We lost our AmStaff (Diesel) in 2007 and decided in 2009 it was time for a dog. We saw “Bob’s” picture on your site and he was exactly what we were looking for. When we came to pick him up he was so cute showed so much excitement. He was quiet the whole ride home [...]
Tucker
We adopted Tucker knowing little about him but I must say he has filled a huge spot in my heart. Everyone who has met him tells us how lucky we are to have got such a good dog. He is honestly one of the best dogs I’ve ever seen, and I’m not only saying that [...]
Hank
We just celebrated the first anniversary of our adoption of Hank our lovable Bulldog. He is doing great and is a source of never ending laughter and amusment for us. He and his brother Max are the Mutt and Jeff of the dog world. Thanks so much IDR+ for putting us together!
