Four lives spared this week....four dogs who felt the sun on their backs and the grass on their paws one more time....four souls who were lost are now found...two, on their way to a new life with a North Carolina Rescue....one who will no longer feel the gnawing of hunger that she lived with for so long; her Dogs Deserve Better foster mom has experience in cooked diets and GSDs with special needs....one who still needs a foster, but is safe from the fear of an IP injection. Shanta is a sweet honey sable with down ears who loves people. She lived in Walker County for over two months; we will know more about her needs as she settles down. This list has provided yet another miracle...the miracle of a second chance for societys throwaways. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU to everyone who stepped in to help these four; you have given the greatest gift of all....the gift of hope. At this holiday season, remember please those who wait in silent suffering. Open your hearts; maybe your home if you can; to provide sanctuary for a GSD who without you, may have no where else to turn. Jenny....pleading for someone to love in Union, NC. Carley becomming depressed in her cell in Ohio the "no name" girl in Athens Georgia, who has been living in a vets boarding kennel. The boy in NC. who had to be tranquilized to be captured...only to find that he is as sweet as pie and LOVES human contact... Wishing you all a blessed holiday season...a season of miracles....the dogs I named are still waiting for theirs. As always.....Dawn Restuccia Dorothy, and no this aint Kansas --------------------------------- Now that's room service! Choose from over 150,000 hotels in 45,000 destinations on Yahoo!
