Creek’s 176-Day Journey Home
Story
After 176 days of waiting, Creek, a big-hearted lovebug with a knack for stealing smiles, finally found the family he was destined to be with.
From the moment Creek arrived, it was clear he was something special. His playful antics, goofy personality, and endless affection made him a favorite among the staff. Yet, despite his many charms, finding the right home for Creek took time.
But at Atlanta Humane, no matter how long it takes, we never give up on the animals in our care.
Every day, Creek touched the hearts of those around him. His infectious spirit brought joy to everyone he met, and it was impossible not to fall in love with his warm, wagging tail. The staff grew close to Creek, celebrating his milestones and cheering him on as he met potential adopters. But as days turned into weeks and weeks into months, it became clear that Creek was on a different journey—one that required a bit more time.
Then, finally, the day arrived. His new adopter knew in her heart that Creek was meant to be part of her family. The excitement and joy she felt were so overwhelming that tears of happiness streamed down her face.
As Creek got ready to leave the shelter, the entire staff gathered to bid him farewell. It was a deeply emotional moment, with the team who had cared for and loved Creek coming together to celebrate the start of his new life.
Creek’s journey may have been a long one, but it ended in the most beautiful way possible.
Here’s to you, Creek—thank you for reminding us why we do what we do.
