My girl Squirrel is a retired racing greyhound. She came into my life at a time when she was most needed. I had just lost a greyhound to cancer and my father-in-law had been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer and had just months to live. Squirrel accompanied me on our daily visits to his home and then at the hospice center where she just had a calming effect. The nurses would ask if Squirrel would visit the other patients while we were there and Squirrel always welcomed the opportunity. She has since become a certified therapy dog and brings smiles to the faces of everyone at the hospice center every Sunday. Squirrel had been adopted three other times and returned but when we found each other, we both knew we were blessed. We are thrilled to be associated with a rescue organization that saves the lives of these beautiful creatures and we spend all our free time spreading the word about the need for homes for them.
I love my girl Squirrel!
