| Summary |
Most people think I save dogs, but really they saved me. With every rescue, they have taught me an important life lesson. In finding them, I found myself. So here's what I have learned... Never give up. McMuffin, a kind beagle with a heart of gold, taught me to keep going against the odds. King Whacker's secret to life? Always keep smiling. And who can forget lil Rodney, the puppy with the toughest start? He learned to use his big paws with pride and purpose. Above all, they taught me hope. This is our story. |
