Miracles Happen

Sydney - aka Little Bit is settling in well.  There have been some bumps in the road, such as being heart worm positive.  She's our first HW foster.  Thank dog she is young and carrying a light case of it.  We are facing about a month of activity restriction.  Okay, 28 more days, but who's counting.

Big news regarding the puppies she had prior to coming into rescue. Three were surrendered to a rescue program, and two of those died. The others, as I mentioned last blog, had a horrible death in an act of violence. Only through a random phone call from the perpetrator himself was enough information gathered to piece the story together.  Each of us who has ever loved grieved the loss of those puppies.  And yet, something good has come of it. One puppy survived.  The rescue in Oklahoma had the puppy but not the knowledge of where she was from.  Momma and puppy had even been at an adoption event together, but the staff was unaware they were a little family. 

In the way miracles unfold, the pieces all fell into place. Calls were made to bring the puppy into rescue and eventually back to her Momma.  This is one of the golden days of rescue.  When the light of love shines on us and balances out the days of grief when we can't save as many as we want. 

Someday soon Lil Bit and Baby Bit will be together again.  So we give thanks, for the circle of life, for the randomness of human nature, for the open hearts of the rescue's involved, for a Mother's love.  And yes, oh yes, we celebrate!
