Three years ago a big white dog, dragging a huge chain cutting cruelly into her neck, showed up outside our gate. Because our lease did not allow us to keep her, we had her spayed, vetted and Jo Austin helped us place Sky in foster care.

A year later, we placed Sky with Carmita Avila and Rescate Animal Cuenca. Sky was not an easy dog to rehome. Big, expensive to feed, Sky ran away every chance she got. She didn’t like other female dogs. Otherwise, she was kind, loving, gentle, great with kids and cats.

Carmita sent Sky to a trainer for the running. Finally, the right home adopted Sky and she is now happily a part of her Forever Family.

I am very grateful to Carmita and her group.

Rescate Animal Cuenca is a grassroots organization of foster homes. Local Ecuadorians, they aren’t as well known or well publicized and supported in the Expat community. Since 2013, they have placed over 1700 deserving pets.

They have much need of food, medicines, veterinary expenses, etc. To help, they are holding a raffle and need volunteers to sell/buy tickets and/or make donations.

Won’t you help deserving pets like Sky find – and give – love and happiness?

Sky thanks you and so do I!
