CORY & ELSA
COREY AND ELSA ARE YET AGAIN IN A FOSTER HOME AND
DESPERATELY WAITING FOR THEIR FOREVER HOME ... HOPEFULLY
TOGETHER.
The motto for
this special middle-aged couple is "Over the Hill, Picking
up Speed, and Double the Gravity!". Elsa and Corey have been
together all their lives and were abandoned off of a busy
road in Naples. They waited for five days at the shelter and
no one came for them. If it weren't for the intervention of
Golden Rescue in Naples, this wonderful and lively pair
would no longer be with us. They love to run around and vie
for who deserves more attention, go for long walks, have
rides in the car and watch over each other as they have
always done. Like most couples, Elsa and Corey compliment
each other with their individual graces. Elsa is strong and
outgoing, she likes to be the center of attention and loves
to meet new people. She is the busybody and wants to know
what's going on at all times. Corey is more shy and gentle,
and likes to take things in first before charging in
headfirst as does Elsa who is fearless. Corey relies on his
Elsa to make friends for him but once she lets him know he
is safe, he's all wags and kisses. Both of these sweet
goldens are incredibly loving and affectionate; it is a
mystery that they were abandoned and neglected to the extent
they were. They both are willing to forgive and forget, and
find love anew, TOGETHER. Their wonderful foster family will
be returning North soon which will place Elsa and Corey in
the precarious position of having to be relocated and
separated if they cannot be adopted together. Please help us
make their ending a happy one.

THE
ANIMALS' SAVIOR
Copyright Jim Willis 1999

Reprinted with permission of the Author
I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter... the cast-offs
of human society....I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread,
sadness and betrayal. And I was angry.
"God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"
God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly.
"I have done something," He replied. "I created You."
Please help us help the
dogs!
The summer is
brutal for rescue. As is always the case in summer, we lose foster
homes, our donations dry up, adoptions are down and the number of
needy dogs wanting to come into the program increases. That, along
with the number of dogs with serious medical problems has left us
in dire straits. Please help if you can. No donation is too small.
Thank you.
