HOORAY FOR IRIS

Thanks to her Doggy Angel, Rick, Iris is well on her way to a fantastic life. Rick drove all the way from Austin, Texas to save this girl's life! We can't thank him enough for his efforts on Iris' behalf- she certainly tugged at our heartstrings too! We also want to thank the kind supporters of our shelter, who sponsored Iris' Heartworm Treatment. Rick was pleased to have the funds to help with Iris' medical needs. She has been through so much and deserves a wonderful life!

Here is the first update from Rick and Iris:

My Golden, Rocket and Iris and I made it home to Texas just about 11 pm. At 650 miles, it's pretty much a 12-hour drive however you cut it - with dog-walking interspersed with driving. I'm going to give her a day to recover from the drive before we go to the vet to see about heartworm treatment,Right now she's enjoying the run of the house and nudging me gently for more pats while I'm trying to type this.She was a wonderful traveler, is one of the sweetest creatures on four legs, and is a dream to walk on a leash. Quite a gal, Miss Iris. Thanks for helping her to get here.
