We started out with good fostering intentions, simply nursing our little Aflie back to health and then finding him a loving home. He came to us with soft bones (from malnutrition). an injured jaw and lots of insecurities. He also had been quite neglected – as he lived alone outdoors in a filthy pen with minimal care. We believe he was a breeding dog.
However, it did not take long for Alfie to become part of our family in the Spring of 2011. Alfie is quite vocal; very playful and incredibly affectionate. He is our little watchdog. Alfie made it very clear from day one that our home was his furever home. He is an absolute love-bug.
We are grateful to have him in our life and Alfie says “Thank You, A Tail to Tell for rescuing me.”

It took some time for her to trust hands and laps, but she is now a loving, happy little lady and a very important part of our family. Believe it or not, she has inspired us to persevere through tough times. It may seem crazy that this fluffy little chihuahua taught us about strength and grit, but we learned that if this little dog could hang in there until she got a chance to live her best life, surely we can make it through a tough day or two.
