When people say, 'I couldn't foster because it would be to hard to give a dog up' We say 'How can it be harder than knowing a dog died because no foster home stepped up?' and that's why we do it time and time again.
A Dog's Prayer: "Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in the entire world is more grateful for your kindness than mine. Don't be angry with me for long, and don't lock me up as punishment. After all, you have your job, your friends and your entertainment. I only have you."

LOYAL Rescue Inc. BBQ 2012 Video

This year when Loyal held their annual BBQ, they decided to do it a little bit differently then in previous years, and I think made it all the more special for all of us.  ALL previous adopters and former foster babies were invited. There was also live entertainment performed by the very talented Angela Evans. What a beautiful day down by the river. The dogs were so well behaved and really enjoyed the water. This was exceptionally special for us as we had the honour of taking our former foster baby, Sherman, of the Anishnabe Pups, who was rescued, along with his 7 siblings from Lac Simon, Quebec in November 2011, by ARC (Animal Rescue Corps) when they were just days old, and dubbed 'Operation Anishnabe'.  Check out ARC's Facebook Page for more photos, stories and videos of Operation Anishnabe, along with many more rescue stories. Here is a picture of Sherman and Sable's dad, named Veteran. We were thrilled to be seeing Sable, Sherman's sister at the BBQ! What an honour and privilege it was for my husband and I to have fostered them and for me to literally be their 'mum', as the family who had their mom would not surrender her to rescue along with her babies. We couldn't be more proud of how wonderful all the pups turned out and would do it again in a heartbeat. To know that we not only saved one life, but 8 little lives!  LOYAL's BBQ was also featured in SNAP Peterborough's paper    Here is a video of the BBQ that was taken by one of the volunteers.
