Lucky's Happy Ending 🐾

Every rescue starts with a leap of faith. This is Lucky's story, and it ends with a family.

Our Kosovo team rescued a litter of three puppies, just weeks old. From the start, this little comedian stood out, and he has lived up to his name ever since.

Lucky's story took more than luck. It took care, intervention, patience, love, and money, and it took many hands:

• Dawn Waida Bonner and Sofie Mzi, who helped rescue and care for the puppies
• Julie Ketner Rigby, our global transport guru, who found Lucky a family in Holland with the help of Monica Mzi!

Today Lucky is part of an expanded family. He and his new family's current dog keep everyone laughing and bring them non-stop joy.

We feel affirmed. The hassle and expense of caring for Lucky, finding him a home, and getting him there was worth every bit of it, and so is every dog we rescue.

If you'd like to help the next Lucky story end happily ever after, donate today: u21.ai/LuckyDogs

Caution- disturbing photo.

Yesterday we picked up this female street dog in Kosovo with large tumors. We are calling her Nadia, which means hope.

She needs emergency surgery and medication, and we're covering the costs. Please help us get her through this and be part of the solution for all our rescues: https://gofund.me/30562a621 🐾

Want to help us help her and others? Donate here: More than 40 rescued street dogs are waiting at the shelter in Kosovo for families and a safe place to call home. Reading about the small puppies dropped at the shelter’s door, along with the ongoing need for food, heat, water, and medical care, really stayed with me.

International Friends of Animals in Developing Countries is also working to provide spay/neutering, heart, tick, and flea medications, while educating people in Kosovo about adoption and the benefits of companionship. 🐾

Day after day we continue to see and find too many dogs in need o… Mark Di Vincenzo needs your support for Medical Care, Food, Shelter for Rescued Street Dogs

Heartsick this morning… these starved pups were left in a field near our vet partner’s office…. Haven’t had food in only God knows how long. So weak will be a miracle if they live. The brown one is so sick he won’t eat.

How could someone do this to them? Clearly we’re trapped somewhere while someone clearly depraved was depriving them. 😤😠😡 Dawn Waida Bonner Jayne Waida Di Vincenzo Julie Ketner Rigby Sofie Mzi Nora Mziu. https://www.gofundme.com/f/RescuetheStreetDogsinKosovo?attribution_id=sl:c1ce1873-d22b-435f-a74d-218e8a006358&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link
