Read Sassy's Story (In Memoriam)
We rescued Sassy from an extreme cruelty case, along with 60 other animals. She was underweight, scared, filthy, and traumatized. With top quality feed, time, patience, and lots of love in the arms of our staff, Sassy started to recover, heal, and trust. Sassy's spirit was larger than life. She met groups of children at the gate and showed them around. She ran to be with disabled people in wheel chairs and staid by their side. She greeted each of us with smiles and affection. And I kissed her on the head each and very single night before bed. She was our sunshine and our golden ray of light.
Sassy lived till around 12 years of age. When she left us, she left a huge empty hole inside all of us that will only be filled by her memory and the gratitude that we each feel from knowing her, caring for her, loving her, and learning from her. We were blessed by an angel!
