It took me a few months after I lost my shelties Sammy and Brie to feel ready to let go of their food, treats, and other things. But when I did, I took them to the rescue that saved Pants' life. It was painful to donate - another step in the path of grief. But it was also meaningful to know that what was once useful to my dogs would now be useful to other dogs, carrying on a legacy and keeping a little part of my pups alive.
What you probably didn’t see where the volunteers and their joy of having something to pass along to another in need! We are always humbled and grateful.
