Little Man is
officially adopted [ 07-15-2008 ]
Liza Martz of
New Tazewell has adopted Little man today and named him
Coty which I love and suites him to a tee. She will make
a good mother and owner to him. He has come along way
from the baby he came to us as, so very sick and at
deaths door. Here are some before and after
pictures of him.

Coty today!
Handsome and as Beautiful as ever imagined !
2 and1/2 months after he came to us.

Our first day
of trying to save him, His little Brother died !

2 weeks later

1 month later
Its
hard to believe when we look at his pictures that he was
determined to live and now is the most special dog out
of all the dogs we have fostered. I love you Little
Man Coty and you will always hold the most special place
in my heart. Its this kind of work that makes San-Chris
so special and makes us more determined than ever to
help all puppies and dogs of this nature have a chance
to make it and have a happy home.

Claiborne Animal Shelter held a pancake breakfast at the
New Tazewell Methodist Church and being proud members we

schedules as well as donated the web space and maintains
the website for the Claiborne Animal Shelter. We also

many of the abandoned animals of Claiborne County we can
till the shelter is built and will still remain as a
