My heart was breaking with the loss of my beloved Flipper. He was rescued as a puppy and crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 17 years old. Although I did not name him, I assumed his name came from being lame in one leg. After he died I didn't intend on having another dog, a broken heart is very painful.
My niece rescued a dog so I went online to see his picture. However, I am not very skilled on the computer and clicked on available dogs. There was Miracle Mikey up for adoption from Outlaw Dogs. He has a deformed leg which was the opposite of Flipper's lame one. I contacted the group with my story. They responded a family was coming to the rescue to possibly foster or adopt Miracle Mikey; they would update me. Apparently they informed the people that I was interested in him; they gave me first choice! That was when Miracle Mikey rescued me from a broken heart and came to his furever home.
But Miracle Mikey needed a friend to play with him. The same rescue posted a picture of Timmy for almost 9 months and no one one was adopting him. He had deformed paws. Well he was perfect for us, and so Timmy came to live with us too. The two are great brothers.
Again I kept seeing another picture from Outlaw Dogs rescue of Champ and no one adopting him. This time I volunteered to foster him. That lasted 3 days and ended in him coming into our family.
A furever home is forever! We lived near Los Angeles, Ca. when we became a family. In 2017 I decided to return to Pennsylvania to be near my biological family. We packed the car and made the cross country trip together. We are now in a new home and new town loving each other! FOREVER!
