Marilou, from Pet Haven, and her friend, Jessie, made a recent trip to Red Lake and back. They had a wonderful experience and took some great pictures as you'll see below.
Karen has been inundated recently with 46 dogs/puppies and 18 cats/kittens. We have five transports scheduled in November and one each in December and January. It gets tougher now as the trips have to depend on the weather, too. Please consider volunteering to make one trip this winter. The dogs have nice kennels, but they are still outside at Red Lake.
Dear Karen,
I can't even begin to tell you what an incredible experience it was for us (Jessie and myself) to spend time with you at Red Lake. This is my second trip to Red Lake, and every trip for me strengthens and solidifies my desire to truly do whatever I can to help you fullfill your dream of helping the animals of Red Lake.
Thank you for entrusting us with 7 of your dogs ... I promise you that we/Pet Haven will care for the 3 little pups (who will be fostered by Mary ... she is currently fostering Ode), Junior, Lauren, Rae Ann and Ahnung as if they are our very own.
The road trip back to the cities with the 7 pups and the 3 kitties (they were transported safely to the St. Cloud Tri-County humane society and were being loved and cuddled by the intake staff!) was fairly uneventful .... Lauren got a little sick as she probably isn't used to car rides. The poor girl. Ahnung was an angel and laid on her blanket behind the passenger seat. I think she was very happy to not be in a kennel :)
I will write more and keep you posted on all of them. For now, I wanted to let you know everyone is safe and sound. Ahnung has begun heartworm treatment and I went to visit her at the clinic today to give her hugs and kisses and took her for a short, leisurely walk.
Our fosters are excited about their pups. Laura even came to the clinic to meet us so that she could meet little Junior!!.
with gratitude for all you do,
Marilou
Thank you for your time, compassion, love, understanding
