An answer to my prayers
Read heartfelt stories of rescue, and share your rescued animal stories with others.
I lost my 2 old beloved dogs within months of each other. I was grief stricken and not sure I ever wanted to put my heart out there again, But, I started yearning for a companion so prayed for one who needed ME. Shortly after Christmas last year we discovered this little dog had had a litter of 7 puppies under our outdoor shed. She was nearly starved. I took care of her and her family and after they were weaned, with the help of a rescue agency found homes for the babies. It was quite obvious that Katie needed me, so she has her forever home. I cannot imagine someone dumping this precious girl. Their loss, my gain.
