This was Trixie about a year and a half ago, 3 years after her thyroid cancer diagnosis. She did so well for many years, and for that we are grateful.

Our hearts are broken as we made the very difficult decision to help Trixie cross the Rainbow Bridge. No matter how prepared you think you are, and even when you know it’s coming, it’s never easy.

As many of you know, Trixie was diagnosed with thyroid cancer about five years ago. At the time, we were told she probably had only a couple of years, but in true Trixie fashion, she proved everyone wrong.

Trixie was one of our OGs. She came to us about 14 years ago after being turned into a shelter with her litter of puppies. The dad was surrendered with them too. Another rescue pulled the puppies, but left Trixie and dad behind, so we took them both.

Dad found a home pretty quickly, but Trixie was a little more complicated. She arrived with Parvo and almost didn’t make it. She was also a biter, which made it even more difficult to find a home for her. It took her a long time to trust people, but once she did, we knew she would stay with us forever.

Trixie became part of the heart of Healing Hearts. She was a good girl, never caused any trouble, and quietly made her place here.

We are going to miss her terribly. She was my little food beggar and the house is going to feel a little emptier without her.

It’s always a wonderful thing when rescues and animal lovers come together for a dog in need.

Shelby’s story began in Texas, when a woman out walking found a tiny newborn puppy lying near a sidewalk in 100° weather. That little puppy was taken to our friend Stacey, who immediately began bottle feeding her and giving her the care she needed. Stacey named her Shelby, and from that moment on, Shelby was safe.

Stacey gave Shelby the best start she could, but her hope was always to find her a loving forever home. When Shelby was a healthy, happy 7-month-old puppy and Stacey was preparing to move out of state, we knew we wanted to help both of them.

Because Healing Hearts focuses on senior and hospice dogs, we reached out to our friends at HART, who kindly agreed to take Shelby into their rescue. Shelby was fostered by one of our wonderful fosters, spayed, vetted, and we are happy to report that yesterday, she went to her forever home.

We are so grateful to Stacey for saving Shelby and giving her the right start in life, HART for accepting her, our foster for seeing her through her surgery and keeping her safe, and everyone who helped Shelby get the happy ending she deserved. ❤️

We finally have a beautiful day and Daisy is really enjoying it. Everyone else has been out and about too, but she is covering every inch of the yard. She’s been waiting a long time!
