On the final day of Make-A-Will Month, CHS is taking a moment to reflect on the lasting impact of generosity. ❤️🐾

To CHS’ Legacy Society members: thank you for your extraordinary commitment to pets and to the promise of a better future for local pets in need.

If the pets could say it themselves, they’d put it simply: thank you for making sure there will always be someone in their corner.

Legacies of compassion, hope, and new beginnings continue to change lives, one pet at a time.

A beautiful new beginning began in July when this sweet pup arrived at CHS with his mom and siblings.

Their previous family was moving and wanted to make sure they had the opportunity for a wonderful new chapter. After a successful neuter surgery and a medical evaluation from the CHS medical team, he was cleared for adoption. It didn't take long for his adorable face to capture a family's heart.

Trey has found a loving family, and his human siblings are already completely obsessed with him! There's nothing sweeter than seeing a pet's story come full circle and knowing a bright, happy life is ahead.

Congratulations on a beautiful life, Trey! Your friends at CHS couldn't be happier for you. ❤️
