“Molly was difficult. Not only were we dealing with typical stressful puppy problems – potty training, destroyed socks – we were also dealing with a rescue with an unknown history.”
“We saw the janitor violently ‘sweeping’ a puppy out with the trash across the pavement. A crowd of people were laughing and became even more entertained when we intervened.”
“She was thin, cut up and literally infested with fleas. She was chipped, but her owners didn’t want her back after being lost for four months…”
“I wanted them to be able to get along well,” she told The Dodo. “So I wanted her to actually meet the cat and have the cat get along with the dog as well.”
“Against all odds he is a happy boy, loving life, and we are so grateful we gave him a chance. He now has his wheelchair and he receives mobility therapy daily.”
“I wanted a “less adoptable.” Old, impaired, both, it did not matter to me but I wanted to give a home to a dog that just needed a quiet and safe place to live.”
