JoAnn / Comments Off on GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM FINN’S (LEON) MOM TO FOSTER MOM, JACKIE
“Merry Christmas from me, sam and finn! Last year you gave us the greatest gift when you let us adopt Finn. He has been such a joy and he is so loved by everyone who meets him.
I hope you have a wonderful holiday season! “
Thank you, Jackie, for being such an amazing Foster Mom, Volunteer and Friend. Plus, all that you do to save precious lives
Destiny for Dogs would like to thank First Choice Credit Union for promoting our rescue to their customers and providing a donation to our organization for all new accounts opened in the month of August 2024. The below note is being provided to all new account holders in addition to First Choice Credit Unions donation:
“Have you ever heard of the pet loving not-for-profit organization Destiny for Dogs? They are overflowing with lovable pups waiting for their forever homes. The owners, Ken and JoAnn Goodrich, are long time members of FCCU and we want to offer them our full support. For every new membership account opened with First Choice Credit Union during the month of August, we will be donating $5 to Destiny for Dogs.”
Joey – You are and always will be loved by so many. Your story was heartbreaking, then heartwarming. You have had two wonderful forever moms and many foster moms. Some you have bitten but they still wouldn’t give up and continued to provide unconditional love. Especially your amazing forever Mom, Sue who has been my dear friend over 30 years. You sure landed in heaven on earth. Your mom “Sue” truly saved your life.
“I’ve been told I am gorgeous, intelligent, lovable, well behaved and sometimes a little stubborn.
I owe my great life to JoAnn Goodrich. The lady that saved me from an unhappy home. She allowed me to be adopted by my forever family, Candy and Jeffery Segal. We love each other unconditionally. They call me “The Boss.”
Wishing Bella, Mom & Dad continued, “Happy Days Ahead!” Plus, lots of love and spoiling for “The Boss.”
Cookie was adopted by Cathy & George a most amazing couple. She truly hit the doggie lottery and will never want for anything
Special “Thank You” to Gabby Von Rosen, The Little Farm House for taking Cookie under rescue when her owner had to surrender. Sadly he had been living in his car with Cookie for over a year. Thank you Gabby for trusting Destiny for Dogs with finding Cookie her extraordinary & loving home. It was truly “their destiny” that brought them all together.
This wonderful couple lost their beloved, Cookie 1 that they adopted from DFD eight years prior. Losing her was so devastating, Cathy & George were still grieving a year later. Our hearts were breaking for them.
It was uncanny that the fur baby Gabby rescued real name was also “Cookie”and the girls could have been siblings. Long story short, it was love at first sight for Cathy, George & Cookie when foster mom, Susan Brokaw performed the meet and greet. Thank you, Mark & Susan Brokaw-Garfinkel
for all that you did for Cookie to get her ready for a new and wonderful life.
From Cookie’s Mom:
“We are so thrilled that you thought of us when Cookie needed a forever home. She is such a smart, cuddly, and entertaining little girl. She enjoys going with us for road trips, camping, and fishing.
We are back from our travels to N Georgia and everyone is a happy camper. She fit right in and enjoyed meeting our son’s family. Does very well with other dogs too. She is such a sweetheart and brings us great joy. Thank you!!
Photo attached was taken of Cookie 2 at the same spot at our son’s place 3 yrs apart from photo of Cookie 1.“
It is said that, “A picture is worth a thousand words.”
Enjoy the photos that also tell a beautiful story about Cookie and her continued, “Happy Days Ahead!”
