Arrival Story:
I almost missed out on Patchy! I found Patch at the PAWS shelter in Lynnwood, WA...it was his second stay at the shelter, actually. I had decided I wanted to adopt him, and the day before I was going to pick him up, I was in a bad car accident on my way home from work. The next day I felt absolutely horrible, both physically and mentally. I called the shelter and told them I couldn't take Patch. Then I spent the rest of the day kicking myself! The next day, I drove up to the shelter and was waiting outside the door when they opened. I knew that another person wanted to adopt Patchy, so I was afraid he'd already be gone. I ran into the kennels...and there he was, with a "What took you so long?" look on his spotty little face. I was *so* happy to see him.

Bio:
Though he doesn't like to admit it, Patch originally hails from Renton, Washington. He also lived in Anacortes, Washington for a short while before coming to live in Green Lake.
