An Angel Visited Us Today...

If you have been following along in the Blog, you know we have been trying desperately to raise funds to save Rupert, our newest rescued basset. To date, we have raised only $200 which doesn't cover his current vet bills...and he still needs surgery!

We were all feeling a little dejected when today, the most amazing thing happened. Domino, a gorgeous English Setter who frequents Metropawlitan Dog, and her parents got together and decided to do something. As Domino was picked up for daycare, her parents told us they had a surprise for us....and boy, were we surprised! They very generously donated $500 to help us save Rupert!!! Let's be honest, the entire Metropawlitan Staff nearly broke down into tears when we got the news...We have some more fundraising to do, but this amazing gift helps so tremendously and we are so grateful.

Thank you to Domino (we know she was behind this!) and her amazing parents, Bob and Linda. We are truly blessed to receive this gift. Rupert thanks you too from the bottom of his doggy heart. Words cannot express our gratitude. Rupert will express his gratitude with doggy kisses for everyone tomorrow at daycare!

Thank you so much!

Going on two years with us in May, Rupert is doing wonderful. We could never have asked for a better boy and we are thankful everyday for everyone at Metro (including Domino and his pawrents) who made it possible for him to come to his forever home. Please, if you still see them, tell them we are forever grateful for their kind donation. And thank you to you all for giving this sweet boy a chance. He has come so far and brought us such great joy - we look forward to many more happy years together. :)
