Peaches

It’s a sad day in rescue… Peaches, our 2022 senior Alumna, has passed away from cancer.
 
Peaches came to rescue in early 2022 at 11 years old.  She was somewhat deaf and blind and had been living on a farm in TN until her owner died and no one would take her in.  Our TN State Coordinator, Mandy immediately started searching for a foster home that was experienced with seniors with challenges, and our FL State Coordinator, Dorothy, volunteered.  That’s a long distance for a senior to travel by car, so we contacted Pilots n Paws and they jumped in to help.  Peaches, with the help of several volunteers, flew to Orlando to start her new life in rescue.  She eventually moved to a second foster home with Lisa who lovingly took the time to find the perfect forever home with Pat and Jerry.
 
Pat and Jerry, in their last update on Peaches said, “She has gained a little weight but so have we. She loves the doggie park. She has enriched our lives and Rylee and Morgan's too. Peaches has blossomed and come out of her shell. Her eyes tell you everything.”  
 
We know Peaches was loved and cherished – what every dog craves.   Our hearts ache for Pat and Jerry, but know that Peaches is at peace and has joined her former owner at the Rainbow Bridge.
