BHRR's Journey came with me on Saturday April 14th as one of the amazing BHRR representatives PLUS incredible Great Dane Breed representatives to Pet Valu as part of their Pet Appreciation Weekend event.
BHRR was invited to the new Pet Valu in Kemptville, Ontario and we were there both Saturday(BHRR's Freeze also came) & on Sunday(BHRR's Hamilton and BHRR's Kyo came) and had a most wonderful community education and awareness event!
THANK you so much to Erika and all the amazing staff of Pet Valu again for inviting us and they are still taking donations for 'pawprints' up to and including April 30th, 2012! I was informed yesterday that they were just shy of $1,000 raised and those monies shall be used towards going to pay for a Pet Pro 2000 IV pump( $2,000+ USD ) for those special needs dogs in need of IV treatment at BHRR.
THANK you to all the Volunteers who spent their time with me this weekend AND thank you to all the supporters who came out to visit! 🙂
Also exciting news is that this was BHRR's Journey's last official 'test' and she aced it! AS I knew she would! She is NOTHING like the emaciated, wounded, sick, terrified GD that first came to BHRR on December 22nd, 2011. OTHER than her spirit, that has never stopped being there and is only more delightful and shining now that she is feeling 100% healthy! 😀
I am putting two photos below; one of when she first arrived(24 hours and it is with several small meals already given) and on Saturday April 14th, 2012. ISN'T SHE magnificent????
There are sooooooooooooooo many caring, giving, generous, thoughtful and loving people that are to be thanked for her 'journey' to physical and mental and emotionally rehabilitation soundness and my deepest thanks is being SHOUTED out to each of you! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! For helping/assisting us in saving her. She is WORTH everything donated from kind words, to money, to hamburger, beds, treats and so much more!
People came from all over Ontario, Quebec & parts of NY, USA to visit with her on Saturday. It was very touching and once again proved that by working together, a community large and wide can make a HUGE difference in the life of another AND all of us agree that BHRR's Journey has taken us along a very special journey and we shall forever be indebted to Journey for the gifts and lessons she has bestowed upon each of us! THANK YOU Journey!
I am so full of this sweetly mixed emotion in posting that as of today, BHRR's Journey is now AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!!!! WTG GIRL! 😀 So many are watching over you as your continued angels and just as with all of the BHRR dogs; only that right matched home shall do!
She is still healing a bit from a sprained ankle(crate rest, ice and Deramaxx for a week) for; in her enthusiasm, she tripped coming up the three steps into our home; but she is almost fully healed and unless, she hurts it again; there is nothing holding her back from being placed up for adoption at this time!
BHRR's Journey – December 23rd(24 hours post arrival to BHRR) & April 14th,2012(less than 14.5 weeks later!)
