Update on our sweet Luna!

Update time! Remember the malamute who was named Sasha back then (now Luna) who was in such horrible condition that she was dripping blood from her chin? That was back in the summer and the people who had her let her get into that condition AND kept her outside in the heat, so this was a suffering dog. She was about 1 year old when we got her and very underweight in addition to the skin condition. Her pictures back then got a lot of attention and we thought you would like to see her now that she has been restored to her natural beauty. Luna is an angel in every way. Having gone through a couple fosters, to whom we are extremely grateful, she ended up with me for the final leg of her journey and on every level I have nothing but praise for this gentle, sweet, loving dog who is as smart as can be. My husband and I are both in love with her and its going to be really hard to say goodbye. A wonderful family will be claiming her on Monday and she will get the life she deserves. This was a long journey back to health for Luna and she represents everything we stand for in our rescue. No matter how long it takes, or how much it costs, they are worth every single thing it takes to undo the damage inflicted on them by thoughtless, careless people. Feast your eyes on the magnificent Luna! I added the before pictures so you can see how far she came. Luna looks so amazing that she was Christmas Card worthy and she proudly posed for the 2017 Sophie's Circle Christmas card.

Thank you United Unitarian Church of Ormond Beach for your annual pet food drive!

Every year for almost 10 years now, the amazing folks at the United Unitarian Church in Ormond Beach do a food drive for our Pet Food Pantry. This year they knocked it out of the park with this huge load of cat food. We always seem to run out of cat food because we have so many hungry cats who need our help, so this is a haul by any standards. Thank you to all who donated and please know how grateful we are and how many cats you have helped with your generosity!
