Meet Brody, our eight-year-old superstar who’s been on quite the adventure. Brody first arrived at our shelter as a stray in 2020. His original owner came to claim him, but life had other plans, and Brody returned to us due to housing conflicts a few months later. Our staff fell head over paws for this big, sweet boy with a heart of gold. He never failed to bring smiles to everyone he met!

In 2022, a special day finally arrived when someone came to adopt Brody. Brody couldn’t contain his excitement, and neither could we! Sadly, he was brought back to the shelter in January 2023 because he didn’t quite hit it off with their other dog. But don’t worry, Brody’s story is far from over

For nine months, Brody received tons of love, treats, and pets from our dedicated staff, quickly becoming a staff favorite. We were determined to find him the perfect forever home. We made videos of Brody delightfully licking “Adopt Me” words made of peanut butter, posted adorable pictures, and shared videos showcasing his lovable personality. Many potential adopters came to meet him but were sometimes discouraged by his size.

But then, the stars aligned, and one wonderful lady walked into our shelter to meet Brody. Brody, always the happy tail-wagger, greeted her with boundless joy. She agreed to take him home for a sleepover, which soon turned into a foster arrangement. And guess what? It only took a week for her to fall head over heels in love with Brody, signing the adoption papers with a heart full of happiness!

And so, the day we’d all been waiting for finally arrived – Brody went home, for good! The shelter erupted in celebration, knowing that Brody had found his perfect match. Brody’s mom keeps us updated because she knows how much we adore him! He’s now living his absolute best life, with the biggest smile, enjoying being the king of a human-sized bed and couch!

But that’s not all, folks! Brody happened to be a Dolly’s Dream dog, so his new mom not only gained an amazing companion but also received fantastic perks that come with adopting a Dolly’s Dream dog!

Congratulations, Brody! Your journey from stray to cherished companion is an inspiration to us all. Thank you to everyone who played a part in this heartwarming story. Let’s spread the love and celebrate Brody’s happily ever after!
