Success Story: Colt aka Willie

Aug 25, 2024

Colt came to Valley Humane in mid March last year. After spending some time in a loving foster home and receiving his neuter surgery at the Phil Scholz Veterinary Surgery Center, Colt was adopted by his new family and renamed Willie.

His new mom, Leah, wrote to us and let us know how it’s been going. Not only does Colt have a new name, but he also has a fancy nickname: Mr. Nelson. He has become a very cuddly pup now that he’s settled in his new home with his loving family. Leah says he has very “athletic ears” and has been learning all kinds of new tricks and commands that he loves performing.

 Sounds like a perfect match, Willie! We are so happy for you.
