Saying Goodbye to Ren
It is with an incredibly heavy heart that I share the news that Ren, the dog who this rescue was named after, has passed away. Ren has been with us from the very beginning, and his loss feels like the end of an era. I’m heartbroken, and part of me feels like it’s time to close it all down.
His passing comes at a time when the hospital is facing very real financial challenges. Income from our shops and donations have dropped significantly, and during the winter months ahead, I must decide if I can continue.
What keeps me going is the thought of the thousands of animals we’ve helped over the years. More than 1,000 last year alone. I keep thinking about them and how much they still need us. Without us, where would they go?
If you can support us during this uncertain time, we would be so grateful. Every donation makes us more financially stable and helps us continue this important work. It means I can focus on animal care rather than fund-raising.
Athough money is important, I’d also like to take this time to celebrate Ren’s life with you, so if you have any stories or photos of him that you’d like to share, please post them here.
