A BIG Surprise!

On Sunday, we got a surprise visit from a family from New York. It was the family who adopted "Happy" back in December from the Lucky Puppy Rescue. If you remember, Happy was a maltese puppy who only had 3 legs. Apparently, he either had a birth defect or his mama was overzealous when she cleaned him just after birth and accidentally chewed off his little foot.

Happy's name is now "Scooter Lee McCoy", and he is one happy little boy! Their visit was a great surprise, but what they brought with them was amazing! This generous family drove 5 hours to donate a truckload of items to The Lucky Puppy. They brought a toddler bed and mattress, dog beds, blankets, toys, bleach, paper towels, cleaning product, and lots and lots of dog stuff!

Julie DiPietro collected all the items from Scooter's new family-all dog lovers for sure-and transported them to us!

Thanks to Ray & Debbie MacIver and their dog Jasper for the big brown bed, the scarf and toy for a "lucky little girl rescue".

Thanks to Scooter's 29-year old Grandma for the doggie toys.

Thanks to Julie, Tiffany, Dave, Scooter, Peaches, and Rosco for all the other great stuff and the pictures!!

They also brought with them a check from Scooter's grandma, Carol Moore, and her dog Jack, in memory of the beloved dog Romena Lee Ford (pictured above), who belonged to Tiffany Ford, Julie's daughter.

It was great to see them and we were touched beyond belief that they made the long journey down here! They are truly friends of The Lucky Puppy!

Julie and Family-Thank you VERY, VERY much! The rescues are enjoying the beds and toys already! You're wonderful!

Scooter-We are glad you have such a great family who loves you as much as we do! You're a Lucky Puppy for sure!! XO
