This week, the Pleasanton Weekly published a story about the life-changing work we do at Valley Humane Society. The story highlights one of the most magical moments that can happen at the shelter: an immediate connection one of our adopters made with an adoptable dog. Check out a snippet of the article below.
Valley Humane Society aims for purrfect pairs
“It was love at first sight for 82-year-old Pleasanton resident Ray Brandon and Lady, a small dog with an underbite from Valley Humane Society.
“As soon as I saw her, I knew I wanted her,” Brandon said of meeting the 4-year old pup in August. “She came home and fit right in, used the dog door and walks on a leash. She’s cuddly and she’s happy and doesn’t bark every time somebody comes to the door. If you put an order in, she’s the dog.”
Brandon is one of many senior Tri-Valley residents who has found their furr-ever friend at Valley Humane Society, a nonprofit organization in Pleasanton that saves and improves the lives of companion animals in the area. Their work spans pet adoptions, low-rate spay and neuter services, animal food distribution to the community and more.”
