Winnie's Adoption Story & Gotcha Day Celebration

Winnie’s Adoption Story 

Winnie’s story began in Arkansas after an irresponsible breeder was no longer willing to care for her and her littermates. When the breeder failed to sell the puppies, they heartlessly abandoned them on a farm. Carlton Rescue stepped in and found the pups a foster home and they received medical attention for fleas and worms. Winnie’s sweet face and fluffy ears caught Natalia’s attention and she knew Winnie was destined to find her forever home with the Mieczynski family. Winnie’s journey to her new life began when a kind-hearted rescue organization stepped in to save her and her siblings from the harsh realities of their abandonment.

As Winnie arrived at her new home, she was understandably anxious and timid. It was explained to the family that Winnie likely had minimal human contact early in her life. The first few months were a time of adjustment for the little pup. Winnie was fearful of men and boys. She had to learn to trust her new family, overcome her fears, and adapt to a completely different environment. But with patience, love, and understanding, Winnie began to blossom. She formed a deep bond with her new family, finding comfort and security in their presence. They provided her with all the love and care she had been denied in her early life. Winnie's story is a testament to the resilience of animals and the power of human compassion. Despite her difficult start, she was able to overcome her past trauma and find happiness and love in her forever home.
