Testimonial

"Hi. I'm Sue McDonough and this is my dog Alex, and we adopted him when he was five. He was abandoned because he had gone blind from retinitis. And we were somewhat hesitant beause we thought, 'special needs dog -- how can we manage that?' We have a very, very busy household. We were somewhat insecure that we could care for him. Well, he's seemed to be the best thing we've ever done. He's a joy. He's added such a dimension to our life, and the only limitation that he has in the ones we place on him. He is courageous, open, runs on the beach, runs in fields, and chases balls, and we just love him. He's wonderful, and it's the best thing we ever did."
