    I am so glad you featured Donna. She is so amazing. She crawls through abandoned buildings most of the time to reach these beautiful souls. St Louis Stray and Rescue is a phenomenal place. They have their own utube channel and now are featuring some of these sweet babies to find them their own family. My most heartbreaking story is where they found one dog shot and his friend laying beside him. He was rushed back but there was nothing to be done. Donna, some other staff , and his pup friend laid with him on a blanket and loved on him until the meds put him to sleep. I know he passed knowing he was loved.

      Doesn't it break your heart to know they cower to people because they're afraid and they've probably been hurt by them. One of these days the animals will get tired of abuse by humans and then Karma will come knocking. The sooner the better.

    Donna, you are beautiful!! The gentleness you use to entice and encourage is amazing. I love watching Eldad / Hope for Paws and the way to understands what is needed. You both are cut from the same gentle cloth.
    We are on our 4th dog rescue/forever home. Dogs know they've been rescued and are infinitely more grateful and loving. They know what it "was" like and what it "is" like now. We will always rescue, especially older dogs as we're older now & understand aches and pains that come with age. They so deserve good loving homes where they can be who the are and live in love & comfort to end of their days. It breaks our hearts when we loose one but they've also given us so much more and we learn with each one.
