Why I love what I do

These two girls, probably mother and daughter.

Snickers

My best guess is that they were used over and over to produce puppies to make money.

That’s not the end of their story.

At ages thirteen and ten, they were surrendered to a shelter and requested to be euthanized probably because they couldn’t have more puppies, maybe for health issues; one has a mass on her side, both have dry skin patches and watering eyes.

That’s not the end of their story.

At the shelter, it was decided they deserve to live out their senior years being loved for exactly who they are, not for what they can offer.

Our rescue group agreed and asked someone to foster them in Houston. One of the greatest women I know agreed and said, “They’re coming home with me!”

We shared their information with our partners in Colorado. A rescue there also agreed they deserve a wonderful future and said, “Send them to us!”

When they rounded the corner of the building to get on their van on transport day, the volunteers broke into applause. Everyone gathered around their foster and these two grande dames and gave all three of them as much love as could be given. (Foster parents need love, too!)

There were lots of tears and laughter as they finally settled into their crates for their long ride.

They’re going to have a happily ever after, these two, for the rest of their days.
