Stuart Little ...

"My name is Stuart Little. I was the first dog adopted at the first 'animal event' Pets In Need Society ever held. A PINS member discovered me at the county dog pound, where my previous owner left me because she was moving away and couldn't take me with her. I was really skinny, had really wild, wiry hair, and was afraid of everything! The PINS volunteer named me Stuart Little because I was a little white mousy-looking thing. 

"My new mom (Virginia Thompson) fell in love with me the minute she saw me and took me to live with her and two other dogs, two cats, and miniature horses. I love to go to the barn with Mom and watch as she tends to the horses. I play with the other dogs and would like to play with the cats, but they aren't interested in me. I ride in the little horse-drawn carts my Mom hooks up to the little horses. I get to travel a lot with her to the horse shows and events. I really like that. My Mom takes  good care of me, feeds me well and loves me a lot. (You can tell that from my less than slim figure.) I'm really glad that Pets In Need Society had the animal adoption event at Video Vault in 2000, or who knows what would have happened to me. Thanks, PINS volunteers for helping the animals of Meade County!!"

*Editor's Note:  There were quite a few people that fell in love with Stuart Little that day!
