I'd like to introduce you all to Tasha!

Tasha became our new foster dog yesterday. Amanda, my FOR (Friends of Rescue) foster liaison, made the arrangements for Tasha to be pulled from the Athens, AL shelter. Shannon, a volunteer with FOR picked up Tasha from the Athens, AL shelter and brought her to our home while I was finishing up at work.

When I pulled up to the house Shannon was waiting outside along with her sweet young daughter and Tasha. I was informed that Tasha was being very good and had even let Shannon's little girl hold her leash!


Tears flowed as Shannon's young daughter realized that Tasha wouldn't be coming home with them. I assured her she could come and visit Tasha any time she'd like and thanked her and her mom for bringing Tasha to our house. For such a little girl, she was completely comfortable around a dog who was as big as she was! One day I hope to have a child as caring and compassionate about animals as Shannon's little girl.

Tasha made her way into our home and sniffed around a bit before checking out the back yard. Amanda informed me that Tasha is suffering from Sarcoptic Mange and will need to be quarantined from Goldie and Ollie for at least a couple of weeks.

I will document Tasha's healing and transformation in the coming blog posts. in the meantime, if you or someone you know is interested in adopting Tasha, please contact me.
