Aug 11, 2008 Gracie lived all but 2 months of her life in a cage.  Gracie was rescued from a Salida, Colorado puppy mill. Gracie had a difficult time walking but she loved to go outside with us in the yard.  Gracie loved to lay on the sofa or on your lap, she loved attention. She learned quickly what treats were. Gracie was finally happy. Jerry and I were told by our Veterinarian that Gracie was in very bad condition and would not live long.  We thought for certain that we could make her better and she would be with us for a long time.  We could not undo the harm done to her due to the lack of medical treatment at the puppy mill.  Gracie left us today.  This morning we buried her next to little Maddie who was from the same puppy mill.   To Gracie   Sweet little girl we are so sorry we only had a few months to kiss your nose and snuggle with you. We are so very sad we could not make you well.  But please know this Gracie, you were loved, you belonged and you were wanted. Gracie, someone out there knows how to stop puppy mills and that someone will.  We just wish it could have been before you were born.   Rest well little one.  We miss you so much.  You have our hearts without end.   Jerry and Diane Kammy, Alex and Sam Along with Every SAINT member

Today we said a sad farewell to Maddie.  Maddie was recently rescued from a Salida, Colorado puppy mill.  She was diagnosed today, while being at the Veterinarian's for her spay appointment, with cancer which had spread. Our Veterinarian informed us that little Maddie was in pain and did not have long to live.   Maddie only had a few weeks of freedom from her misery at the puppy mill. Maddie only had a few weeks of kindness and love.  Maddie only had a few weeks to try to understand that the human hand can be soft and warm. Maddie was starting to trust. Maddie was 11 years old. We thank Maddie’s foster mom Tammy and her family for giving Maddie the best few weeks of her life.  They showed Maddie what love and kindness is, something she should have had all her life.   Maddie now rests in a special spot in our hearts. We love you Maddie and we will miss you.  May you find that soft white cloud for your forever rest.   Every member of SAINT
