  • Abby (formerly Kisses)

    I am so grateful that I was able to bring this pup into my home. I would like to thank DOCPAC and the fosters who took care of Abby until I could adopt her. It has been about 2 months and she has been nothing but fun! She is also growing like a weed she has passed the 30 lb mark with no signs of stopping anytime soon! We are so glad to have her as "our little girl", and look forward more and more adventures together.

  • Heidi

    We've never adopted a pet before, but after seeing a picture of Heidi, went to the DOCPAC and fell in love with her. She adjusted so quickly and is totally filling our home up with a lot of joy and love.

  • Ruby

    We had rescued Ruby at Firestone(Victoria) and after 1 week took her to DOCPAC so she could find a good home. After a couple months went by she had not been adopted and we could not stop thinking about her. So we made needed arrangments for her at home, (temporary out door kennel and play area) untill we could slowly introduce her into our home with 2 very old chi chi's. She is doing great and quickly became a part of the family. She sleeps indoors now in her crate(door open)at night and comes in several times during the day. Even the chi chi's have excepted her. We are so glad we didn't stop thinking of her untill she finally found her home. It was with us all along.

  • Spottedleaf (TINA)

    TinaHey DOCPAC it's me "Tina". I'm happy in my new home and I have a a lot of new friends! My personal favorite is the person who decided to adpot me, Hayden. I also have two other friends; they are dogs and their names are Charlie and Lucy. We all love to cuddle together at night and play all morning. I have my very own castle and I love to play in it with my buddy Charlie. I have adjusted well to everything and have a GREAT life here with my new family. They always keep my food and water bowl full and they feed me treats, I'm glad they know when to stop! I wanted to thank y'all for taking care of me all those months back in the shelter; I really appreciate it! I sometimes miss my old friends and if CHYNA is still there make sure to say "hello" for me!

  • Izzy B. (Formally MeeMaw)

    Hi Meagan and all DOCPAC Staff: It's me, MeeMaw aka Izzy B. I miss all of you but want you to know I love my new home and I am adjusting well. I get lots of love and attention and seem to always have a lap to lay in. My new home has a doggy door so I can go in and out to the backyard as I please, which I love. At night, I get to sleep in a nice big bed with my Mom. Thank you for all the love and care you gave me; My Mom tells me that she got the best dog ever. Mom says we will come visit you one day soon. Thanks for finding me such a terrific family.

  • Merlin

    Merlin was known as "Repo" when we first saw him on the DOCPAC site. When we went to look at him in person, we just beat another family to him. One look into his eyes and we knew he had to come home with us.

     Merlin is now a trained service dog for Ramoan. He reminds Ramoan when to take his medications and he will lay against Ramoan's back to relieve back pain. In addition, he is a well loved member of the family.

    This past Thanksgiving he vacationed with us at Walt Disney World. Merlin has made a world of difference in our lives and he is proof that rescue dogs can make wonderful service dogs.

  • Maci

    I want to thank all of you that work at Dorothy O Connor Pet Adoption.  Wow, what an amazing place you have, and your animals are so well takencare of.  I was very impressed with your love and kindness towards all your pets.

     I especially want to thank you for taking care of my little baby, Maci, she just caught my eye, she is just beautiful, and so sweet and cuddly too!!  I had been looking for a while for a baby, and when I saw her in person, there was NO question at all that she was the right one.  

    Of course she is very pampered, she has a special outfit for every occasion, and I made her a necklace with her name on it.  I do not know who gave her the name Maci, but it fits her perfectly, and I love it.

    Thank you again for your love of animals,                                               Bonnie Washington and Maci




  • Colby

    ColbyMy friend suggested I go to your website last spring and look at this little Beagle Colby. Next thing I knew he was in the car with me going back to New Braunfels. The best part about Colby is that he is such a help to me when I foster Beagles. He thinks the fosters are just for him. He is a great Beagle and has fit into our home nicely. Sometimes there is just too much energy as he is the second Beagle in the house and a foster makes three. Thanks for the work you do in Victoria.

  • Pudge

    PudgeWe adopted our Pudge from you on Oct.14,2009. We had to put our beloved Theo to sleep because he had cancer. Our daughters told us we needed to get another cat because we had lots of love to give and Theo wouldn't want us to be lonely. So we came upon "Elmo" as you called him but we changed his name to Pudge. He has filled our life with lots of love and happiness. He was and still is a very handsome cat. He's very spoiled and we wouldn't have it any other way. God bless you all.

    LolaLola came to us as Bibi at the end of May. She fits into our family perfectly. She's a little prancing, sweet, cuddly, smart 8 month old now, born on my brothers BDay too! She loves her 3 kitty friends, playin fetch, stealin socks, and hain some of our fruits and veggies. Training class 5 is coming up and I think her trainer Tracy wishes she could keep her. No way!! :) Seems no one can resist her cuteness, and you'll know when shes around because of all the awwwww's you hear..
