We found our senior dog Molly available for adoption online. After contacting The Rescued Pup, we found out she was an oddball that didn’t fit in with the typical dogs Michelle pulls from shelters. But when she saw Molly petrified in her cell, she decided to help.
My partner and I adopted Molly, after hearing many stories about her, doing a video call, and an in-person meeting and walk. Molly had trauma that she carried with her throughout her life. The Rescued Pup recognized that, and gave her special treatment to try to calm her fears.
As her parents, we tried to do the same. We knew she would come around at some point. And at some point, she did. We were so lucky to have her as our family for the final years of her life.
She’s gone now, and I miss her cat-like nuzzling along the bed. I miss the presence that she had around other animals. She self-medicated her own fear by nurturing others. She was a gift. I’m so grateful The Rescued Pup connected us together. We will remain that way forever.
