My story

Some friendships are forged on playgrounds, others in cubicles or coffee shops. But Shamrock and Lucky? Their friendship bloomed in the quiet corners of a rural vet’s office, where two abandoned dogs found comfort in each other while they waited for someone -- anyone -- to remember they mattered.Shamrock is a 4-year-old hound with a heart like a lullaby. She’s soft, subtle, sweet -- and she carries the wisdom of a mama who’s raised a crowd. She’s clearly had litters of her own, and when Lucky came along -- scared, unsure -- Shamrock took him under her velvet ear and made him feel safe. Her big brown eyes don’t just look at you... they settle on you gently, like a blessing, and somehow make you feel a little more whole than you did a moment ago.Lucky, a 3-year-old Pointer mix, did some rescuing of his own. He brought Shamrock out of her shell, gently nudging her toward the humans who wanted so badly to help. He taught her about the joy of squeaky toys, the bliss of zooming in the sun, and the art of leaning in -- literally and figuratively -- for a good snuggle.They’re not a bonded pair, not in the formal sense. They’ll miss each other, sure, but they’ll each thrive in a home of their own, maybe with other dogs to love and guide. Still, if you’ve got room in your home and heart for two friends who’ve already done the hard work of loving each other? They wouldn’t mind staying co-stars in the next chapter.Come meet Shamrock and Lucky at Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton. We’re open every day, including weekends and holidays, from 9am to noon.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Shamrock, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
