GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM COOKIE’S MOM & DAD

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!”

GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM FINNY’S MOM

“That’s my baby Finny right now.  He loves to sleep in.  That’s his “gankey” that came with him from Destiny for Dogs.  He likes to be covered up with it and snuggles right down when I put it around him.   Finny does that every morning and it’s a moment of zen for me to see him snuggled under his gankey”

This is an awwwwww moment that makes ya smile from ear to ear
