Tipsy

How happy are we as ‘parents’ of 3 year old Spencer (left) and 5 year old Tippy (right), shown in this photo relaxing following a fun day of play after the annual GGBR Spring Fling. Tippy came to us several years ago surrendered by her loving parents who were not able to provide the care she needed for the glaucoma affecting her eyes. Following removal of her eyes, she lost her companion dog last summer to cancer and was very lonesome. Along came Spencer who was very loved by his owners who could not keep him due to housing issues. Tippy and Spencer bonded immediately and spend their days stalking squirrels together, parading around the neighborhood on walks with their ‘parents’ receiving adoration from everyone they meet, and lounging on the terrace together in the sun. And did I already say, being totally loved by their parents??!__Mike and Sally M., August 23, 2023
