Last week Tom transferred the sweetest boy, Cody. Another wonderful fig saved by Arcadia Animal Rescue. Cody was flown to JFK airport from Albania, with a flight angel. ❤️

This handsome, sweet adorable boy is Brody (aka Baloo). Thanks to Animal Rescue (they are amazing), Brody is in his forever home.

His journey was not a simple one by any means. He was found on a road, with injuries from being hit by a car Albania! He flew to JFK airport and landed safely yesterday. A lovely flight angel 😇 accompanied Brody on his long journey.

Thomas Vinson and myself were thrilled to bring him safely from the airport. Such a lucky boy who, is now in a wonderful loving home. Thank you Alyson Balan-Altman and Karen Smallwood-Querceto. Happy life Brody! ❤️🐾🐾🐾

Thank you so much to Rebound Hounds and wonderful Loren McAuley. Stuart is a senior hospice boy. He was pulled by Rebound Hounds.

Yesterday Thomas Vinson and I, drive him to his incredible foster/ hospice mom. Stuart would not have lasted in the shelter.

Sadly, he is in rough shape. He is blind, possibly death and has other medical issues. He has already been to see the vet and has a follow up appointment scheduled.

No one knows exactly how much time Stuart will have. We hope for time, quality time. He will experience love, safety, and compassion for the rest of his life. ❤️

This past Saturday, Thomas Vinson and myself, Amy Grossman had the profound privilege of transporting Kong to a brighter future. Kong had spent 14-months at the Friends of Yonkers Animal Shelter.

His life now been forever changed. Kong's incredibly sweet nature makes him deserving of a life overflowing with happiness and love. We extend our deepest gratitude to Trina & Friends K-9 Rescue
for saving Kong's life and giving him a second chance. Kong has not only escaped shelter life, but he is now thriving in the country with a loving foster family, a testament to the power of redemption and love. From shelter life to country life! 🐾🐾❤️

“ Click your paw together three times and bark, there’s no place like home, no place like home, no place like home…

Toto is an adorable and lucky little cutie. Tota was  surrendered by his so-called family, to the Queens ACC. Thanks to Rebound Hounds, Toto is now safe and with his foster mom.

Thomas Vinson transported him, leaving the shelter and getting a second chance at life and love. Thank you K9 Soul for helping the transition go so smoothly!
