Fur-tastic News! It’s Time to Reveal Our Howl-o-Ween Happy Tails Champion

The votes are in, the tails have wagged, and the results are finally ready to be unveiled! Over the past few weeks, you shared your adopted pets in their spookiest, silliest, and most paw-sitively adorable Halloween costumes, and the heartwarming adoption stories behind them melted our hearts. Now, it’s time to celebrate the top vote getters and crown our grand champion, whose adoption facility will receive $1,000 from Robert John & Associates. Let’s raise a paw for these furry superstars!

Paws, Love, and Celebration

Every single adopted pet that was entered in the contest is a winner in our eyes. Thank you to everyone who shared photos, stories, and love for their rescued companions. You’re helping raise awareness about the joy of adoption and showing just how fun, furry, and fantastically festive our community can be!

Runner-Up Spotlight: Trudy

Trudy from Saving Paws Animal Rescue of KY (SPARKY) came in a close second, rocking her shark costume and winning hearts all week. Her family shared, “Trudy wasn’t the dog we set out to find, but she was the one we truly needed.” Her story is one of resilience, and she’s proof that sometimes the perfect companion finds you, shark fin and all!

Grand Champion: Butter Bean

Butter Bean from Warrick Humane Society is our Howl-o-Ween Happy Tails champion! This sweet short-faced pup came into his foster mom’s life after life-saving bladder surgery, complete with his very own fashionable diaper. His family shared, “I am so grateful for the local vet and the staff at Warrick Humane Society for saving his life!” Today, Butter Bean is fully healed, living his best life, and stealing hearts wherever he goes, proving that a little love and a lot of care can turn any tail into a happy ending.

Congratulations to Warrick Humane Society for all the incredible work they do and for being the lucky shelter to receive $1,000 from Robert John & Associates!
