All is WELL! They made it back amid torrential storms. The dogs are doing very, very well. They have all eaten, are very playful and well socialized, they are happy and running around in an open area of the barn! More than 25 Volunteers are there right now and we are overwhelmed by the incredible support from all!

We are still raising funds to help get Hank walking again. His professional therapy is going to cost us $3000 for all his visits. The initial money we raised will be used to cover his MRI, speciality consult, meds and therapy consults and his temporary wheelchair.

Below are some photos of Hope when she came into rescue and then some from her swim therapy today- check her out standing!!! She has come a long way but still has a long way to go. We need to raise $ for her to continue swim therapy. Since she started swimming- she is now kicking her rear legs on her own in the water and she is now wagging her tail!!!

Look at that big grin and this little girl sitting on her own now! Her therapy is really helping her a lot and we could have not gotten her to this point without everyone's donations! Hope sends out a big thank you to everyone who is helping her get stronger and healthier!
