MIO

Mio, my sweet angel, your journey to find a forever home wasn’t
an easy one. You had a rough beginning, moving through three
houses and four families before our paths crossed. Despite
the hardships you faced, you showed me that love has
the power to heal and transform.

When you came into my life, you taught me that with
enough love and patience, anything is possible. Each day
with you is a celebration of that miraculous bond we share.
On your special day, your birthday, I promise to make you
the happiest dog alive. Adopting you was the best decision
I ever made, and I cherish every moment we have together.
You’re not just my pet. You’re my inspiration, my joy and my
forever friend.

POOCHY JOSÉ

Poochy José is a mix of a miniature pinscher and a chihuahua
who used to wander the streets of Hialeah, FL-- until one day,
a kind stranger found him. He was taken to an animal shelter
and they named him “Murphy,” but that wasn’t the right name
for him. He was skin and bones, sad, lonely, had a broken leg,
and someone had even mutilated his tail.

The very next day, a newlywed couple came to the shelter,
hoping to adopt their first fur baby. By some power of the
universe, they found him. The moment they laid eyes on him,
they fell in love. They knew he was their baby. When they
had to leave him to complete the paperwork, he started
crying, and they felt an undeniable connection.

They named him Poochy José, and when they called him by his

were meant to be together. It has been 13 wonderful years
Jessenia Hatti since that day. Poochy José is now a little old grandpa, but his

life has been full of love and happiness. He now has two human
siblings and has traveled to many places. He is the heart and
soul of the Barrett family.
