Yorkie Rescue Story to be on the Today Show on 1/26/07 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Mybabe4me · 01-25-2007, 04:09 PM

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to let eveyone know there is going to be a very heart warming story about a yorkie rescue/adoption on the Today show Tomorrow morning. The reason I know this is because the wonderful person that donated Babybear his wheelchair just adopted a yorkie from the Rolling Dog Ranch in Montana last week. This yorkie was kicked and beaten by a drunken man and a wonderful lady stopped him and took the yorkie away from this fool. She took this little girl Spirit is her name to the vets and then to RDR. My friend Nicci was looking for a new rescue baby after the loss of her parylized yorkie. She found RDR in Montana and it took a little time but she decide to adopt little Spirit. Spirit was paralyzed also from the beating that she took for this man and now she is in her forever home in Floridia with three sisters. It is a story that just touched my heart so much I want to share it with you all here. This story will take place between 7am and 9 am. Nicci said she was told that she is supposed to be in the 8:15 spot but there could be changes. I just hope you all get a chance to see this story. I will add the link to the story so you can read this ahead of time. The link is to the Rolling Dog Ranch and grab your tissues because I cried reading the story.
Rolling Dog Ranch Animal Sanctuary: A special place for disabled animals.
I hope eveyone gets to enjoy this story. Thank you for reading. And thank you for your time.

Here's the link and I'm off to read the site - http://www.rollingdogranch.org/

Edited to add - OMG SHE IS PRECIOUS !! What a little sweetheart and what a PIG that did that to her !

Timmy · 01-25-2007, 04:52 PM

I'm in tears

I am glad that she found a forever home. The ppl that got her are so blessed to have her. She is absolutely adorable.

On a different note..I don't even want to say what should be done to the man that did this to her. I hope he is paying for this. What a piece of sh*t!

red98vett · 01-25-2007, 04:52 PM

well - I've read every dogs story on that site and what a wonderful place that is. I'm not well off financially - but if I were to donate I think I just found a new cause...

thank you so much for posting that site. The people at the ranch are AWESOME - I really am touched by all I just read.

Villette,
Thank you for posting that link. I have copied and pasted the one from my email thinking it would work. I guess I messed up some how. Thank you again for your help. If anyone is looking to read the story once you get to the site if you click on meet the animals you will see Spirit the paralyzed dog click on that and it will take you to her story.
Thank you again.

Thank you again.

once you get on the site it's hard to leave. When people think blind or handicapped dogs need to be put to sleep - this is JUST the kind of thing they need to see. I saved it in my contacts and will be sharing it. I hope they have all they need and wish I won the lottery cause I know just where I'd send a big chunk of money.

It takes very special people to do what they do.

Mybabe4me · 01-25-2007, 05:21 PM

If I had the time and the money I would love to do something like this. I am trying to talk hubby into adopting another yorkie, but I want one that is disabled. Sound mean?? I hope not. I just know there are a lot out there that people do not want or have put down. I have Babybear which he is paralyzed still and he has his cart so it wouldn't take much to take care of two well maybe even three, but I won't push that right now.lol One right now would be great to add to Babybear so he knows he isn't the only one that can't walk right. And they are so lovable. I think it is their way of showing us that they are thankful for what we have done for them. I get so much joy every day with Babybear and his loving and his kissing. He is such a love furchild. I know what makes these people want to do this for these animals. I know the reward they get everyday just seeing these babies alive. I live it every day with Babybear.
