She had a rough start but she has been with me since Feb. 2008 and I love her more than when i first met her..By you helping her and getting her out of our local shelter where i first met Crystal you bought me enough time to have my amazing dog back...for that i am forever thankful!! Thank God for your program and all that you do, Regan you are a saint!! Sincerely Colette Purcell

We adopted (Beau) who we named Tody in 2001. He has been a dream. He is a great companion to our family. We have four children who all came after we had Toby. He has always been good to all of our children as well as the neighbor children. We would like to thank you for taking care of him before he entered his forever home.

My family has a Black Brindle, Neapolitan Mastiff. She just turned 5 on March 25th. She is very loyal to her family, loving, returns the love, fun funny, very good with my small grandchildren and just and all around beautiful natured dog. I even taught her to bark "I Love You:~)". During my 1st visit with my fiance David I was waiting on him to get to the visiting room. Meanwhile I was up waiting on French fries to get done in the microwave. A young man who was probably 9 or 10 was looking at the poster of Prison Tails and was telling me a storey about one of the dogs that his father trained. He was so proud of his daddy:). About 2 months later my fiance was telling me about a dog there that he wanted me to go look at online.....it was Raven, the Black Lab/Bull Mastiff. Of course I looked at the whole website after viewing Raven. She is beautiful!! I really liked the you tube video of her playing:). Just wish it would have been a little longer:):) And possibly videos of all of the dogs. I praise all you men in this program and saving the life of these precious animals. They are our companions and like a family member. They are good therapy for some individuals as well:). I read the poems that some of the trainers wrote and noticed in one of the poems the trainer talked about responsibility, compassion and love. How he thought it was going to make a big difference in his life after prison. Good for you;). I hope that all of the trainers have taken away something good from this program when they return to society;). Moreover, that "Love & Compassion" is a big key in our every day lives:).

I'm glad the MUM finally got the room downstairs at R-dorm. The murals are great! Couldn't have done better myself. I hope things continue to prosper for the program and handlers as well.

It's been a little over a year since we adopted Sadie and Eve. They have totally adjusted to their new home. Eve is still skittish when new people come over, but warms up to them a little more quickly now. She will go up to any dog, wanting to play with them. Sadie is a great watchdog and very protective of us. When she sees us welcome people in, she immediately runs up to them wanting to be petted. We absolutely love these dogs. Thank you for all the work you've done with them.

Message From: Nori's Best Friend January 17, 2011
We got Nori on October 20, 2010. She is the best dog ever! She has adjusted to our home well, and loves chasing squirrels up the trees in our backyard. I love Nori more than anything. Also, I would like to thank you at MUM for training her in the Prison Tails System. She was very well trained and is so smart. I am teaching her crawl, jump over and through (for an agility tunnel), as well as practicing old ones like heel, sit, down, stay, and side. She also loves catching frisbees in the snow! Her absolute favorite thing to do is go on walks and sniff everything that I let her sniff. Thank you MUM for this wonderful addition to our family. I couldn't imagine life without her!
Message From: Diamond December 14, 2010
Diamond came into our home recently. She is the best dog I have ever encountered! She is well-behaved, polite, and loving. In this short amount of time, I can not imagine our house without her! Thank you for giving us the perfect addition to our family!

Thanks for all you do. Cody (formerly Brody) has fit in so well with our other dogs and we're grateful he's part of our lives. We set up a $10 recurring monthly payment to Mixed Up Mutts to help with food/expenses and encourage others to do the same! Less than the price of coffee for a week:)

We adopted Trinket last month and we could not be happier. She is so well behaved and is a joy to have, thanks to the training she has had with you guys. Thanks to everyone for all the hard work that was put into our little girl.

Before MUM found Butch Casidy (now Turbo), he was abused. Through Brock and other handlers Turbo is a fantastic dog. We were lucky to hve other people pass him up so we could adopt him. Yes, he had a few minor issues but Turbo worked them out and now he is almost perfect. Very polite, obeys and loves to please us. His name doesn't fit him and his nature but we not change his name. Thanks everyone for giving Turbo a chance and helping him find his forever home.

I was adopted almost a year ago by a nice family in Westville. I am so happy to be in a home with two boys. They play with me and i always have a bone to chew on!
Message From: Amy February 19, 2010
I adopted our dog Dagda in January. He is truly a wonderful dog. He is very well-behaved and has obviously had great training. He does have some separation anxiety issues, which is probably why he was abandoned in the first place. However, the crate training he received in the program has been the answer to this, as I am able to crate him when we leave the house, and he does very well. He's a sweet boy and has been a delightful addition the family. Thank you!
Message From: Fossil February 8, 2010
I am just wondering if my buddy DeVo was ever adopted? And how is Macy doing? Getting any better?

We adopted Tabitha from MUM in March. She is a wonderful dog. The folks at MUM did a great job training her. We love having her and would definitely adopt from MUM again.
Message From: Noelle December 7, 2009
this seems like a wonderful program. I hope to see it become more successful around the country. I also have applied to adopt and am hoping it will go through!

Our family adopted Mocha on July 24, 2009. She has been a wonderful dog thanks to your program. She is obedient, loyal and loving. She is truly a part of our family now. Thanks again.

This is a great program. I can't tell you how grateful I am that it exists. You are all saving lives and getting them ready to stay in a forever home. I also found my way here via Save a Dog! Namaste

We adopted Chance who was in the very first Prison Tales class - how young he was in the photos! He is a wonderful dog, very spoiled & loved. I can't say enough good things about Mixed Up Mutts, all that they do and stand for. We both thank them for our wonderful dog Chance, and have tons of photos if you would like to see him now!

It will be two years since I adopted Murphy (formerly Bishop) from MUM. He is such a great dog and I am very lucky that he became a part of my family. MUM is a great program and Murphy and I appreciate all you did for him.
Message From: Ann September 23, 2009
Thanks MUM! I adopted Yogi on the 19th and we are having a wonderful time. He is a phenomenal dog and, thanks to the hard work by the men in the Prison Tails program, he also has impeccable manners. Thanks again and Yogi says "woof".

Message From: Regan Dietz September 4, 2009
On behalf of MUM and the crew of Prison Tails, I would like to thank everyone for all of their kind words. We absolutely love this program and hope it continues to rehabilitate both the 4 & 2 legged participants for many years to come! Regan Dietz "The Dog Lady"
Message From: Allison September 1, 2009
I adopted aAuba 6 weeks ago! I love her so much. She is the most well behaved puppy I have ever seen. I'm not the best with training so her being trained already it awesome. She doesn't go to the bathroom in the house and doesn't get into anything. Never chewed on anything but her dog stuff. But she still has the energy of a puppy and loves to walk and play. I am so blessed to have adopted her from mum. She is a shy dog and I know that she wouldn't be the great dog that she is today without mum. Thank mum for all you have done for her.

We adopted Brooks in June 2008. He is a great dog and Prison Tails is a great program. This summer Brooks took me to obedience school so I could become as smart as he is.
Message From: liz August 17, 2009
my boyfriend is an inmate at westville. I think this program is wonderful. He loved animals before and it is really therapeutic for him to have them there. He always tells me about the dogs. I'm really glad that this program exsists. both the dogs and these men need it.
Message From: Gail August 13, 2009
I adopted Bella (Nora) in Jan. 2009. It's a match made in heaven. She goes to work with me everyday and is a big hit. THE BEST DOG EVER TO OWN ME! 140# OF PURE LOVE.

Message From: Marilyn August 12, 2009
I lost my Airedale to cancer in September 2008. When I was ready for another dog, I came to Mixed Up Mutts and adopted Cliff in November 2008. When I heard his brother, Flash, was available I came back and got him in May of this year. I love my boys! Great program that benefits the inmates, dogs and anyone looking for a furry friend.
Message From: Susan August 12, 2009
I love this process. It helps both the prisoner and the dog. I recently lost my beloved dog to cancer - it is difficult since we were together almost 24/7 for many years. He was truly a gift to me... I am not ready yet, but may check out one of your dogs when I am...
Message From: Dawn Singleton August 4, 2009
I love that the prison tail dogs get a 2nd chance as well as the inmates. This is a very good program.
