I want you to meet Ruby. Right off the bat, I’m going to leave a trigger warning. Reading further subjects you my worst case in history.
This is the day that we rescued her. She had been hit by a car and left on the streets in Mexico for two months before a Street Rescuer picked her up and begged us to take her.
After her time with us, I accidentally handed her over to a monster who would treat her so badly that she chewed her own tail off, and would be euthanized by the Humane Society before I could save her again.
When I gave her to April, when she chewed her tail off, I had no idea she needed saving from me and the decision I made regarding her care.
Fact is, I didn’t save her. The fact is I sent her to hell.
Ruby never made it all the way home, and overtime I came to realize her purpose, and that was to make me a better rescuer and to open my eyes wider so that I could fight the evil in front of me.
It’s been about a year now. One year ago today, she was alive and locked in a bathroom going insane.
I can’t describe the changes that I’ve gone through and that my Rescue is gone through since Ruby’s death. I know that many of you saw it as you followed along.
I’ll never forget Ruby and the lessons she taught me and all of us and all the lives that she saved when they found her.
During the month of September, I want to honor her and I want all of you who followed her journey to be able to honor her too.
Today until midnight, I have a matching donation that will help me finish out the projects here so we can save more huskies.
If you make the donation through the Raise the Woof Campaign, I’m going to send you something amazing. It’s a beautiful pin of Ruby. I’ll show it to you in a bit in the comments.
You have to use the link though and I only have 100 of these.
So will you help me and Ruby Raise the Woof?
I'm so sorry for this pain and suffering, for both you and Ruby. Know this... because of you, I have found one of my forever fur babies. While I understand the pain, the joy and love you have brought so many, both with and without fur is immeasurable. Thank you, from the bottom my heart.
