Your Puppy Dog Adoption Stories



brindle puppy waiting for adoption

We're all aware of the heartbreaking statistics surrounding the country's abandoned, abused and homeless dogs.

So, here at The Puppy Dog Place, we thought we'd take a look at the other side of the coin and ask you to share your own personal puppy dog adoption stories with us!

With over 2 MILLION dogs and puppies sitting in rescue shelters and pounds across the country, the need for many more willing adoptive families to come forward is immense.

By printing your successful puppy dog adoption stories, we hope that other dog lovers will feel motivated, or reassured, and open their hearts to a homeless dog or puppy who is desperately waiting for their 'forever family'.

You have the option to include a photo of your new best friend too, so why not let everyone see just how darn cute he/she is?
