Happy Tails and New Beginnings!

Noah Bear with his sister, Hana are both therapy/visitation dogs at Tacoma Lutheran Retirement Community!

Hana is now learning how to be a great therapy/visitation dog from her big brother Yoshi at Tacoma Lutheran Retirement Community!

Django, now Jake, charmed his way into his foster dad's heart, and now he and John can set off on new adventures together!

Yoshi! Now enjoying his new home with Colleen and Sheba, weekend beach visits, meeting people and making new friends. Check out some of Yoshi's stories on the TikiChat blog (www.tikichat.blogspot.com).

Tomo, you lead by example & have shown us how to live in the moment and not dwell on the past, (a terrible past we're sure is best forgotten). Robin & Julie begin a new chapter as well. Show them the way.

Once a stray, timid & afraid of the world, Kahana now lives life to the fullest and Claudia & Jim are there every step of the way!

Call it fate or perhaps it was more like "The Call Of The Wild"! Rita (aka Tora), and Chris found each other and are living happily ever after!

After a bit of a rough start, Karma is finally on her way to a fairy tale life! You deserve it little girl!

At long last, after waiting patiently for nearly 2 years, Mihari finally found her perfect home with mom, Christy. Surviving on the streets is but an old memory from the past sweetie, enjoy your new life and don't look back!

Baron, now Max, is having the time of his life with Roberta and Michael. One day it's art shows, the next it's basketball tournaments! So many places to go, so little time! Have a wonderful life, Max!

This Akita wears Prada! Ella (aka Yumi), rubs elbows with the rich & famous, negotiating sales & closing deals! Thanks Lynne, for loving her and giving her a job!

Thank you, Krista & Scott for welcoming Hoku into your hearts. Hawaiian for "star", Hoku has become their shining star!

Thank you to the Hood family for adopting Cassie, (formerly Cremora)! Cassie not only has a new human family, but a canine big brother as well!

Keena (foreground), is happy to have found a loving home with canine brother Max and new dad, Russ! Their home is now complete once again.

And here's Mochi (formerly "Oroville mom"), grinning ear to ear at the thrill of having found her forever home with Grant & Lauren.

Ginko, aka Toshi, (Mihari's other pup), doesn't waste any time showing new mom Rannie, the right kind of squeakie toy to buy for him!

Michael & Cia, teaching Seiko and Isa (Mihari's pups), the proper way to lead a Cal cheer! Goooooo Bears!!

Lorraine is our TikiHut angel sent from above! She brought back 3 of the Palmdale dogs for us. She's pictured here with Jedi, one of the three, which she adopted! Check back for the entire story!

Sweet, sweet Eden (aka Padimay), living with her new brother Benji. She was originally seized with the other Palmdale Akitas.
