MOLLY--AN ANGEL, FOSTERS NEEDED! Rottweiler Holly Springs, MS

We are heartbroken to report that our Molly, icon of this rescue, is waiting at the Rainbow Bridge, having passed away in the loving arms of this rescuer at 5:50 Thursday morning, May 30, 2013.  Molly was also one of our rescues, found hungry, emaciated, and begging for help in August, 2009, with incisors ground to the gum line where she had tried so hard to gnaw her way out of chains, teeth in such terrible shape they threatened internal organ health, bearing the scars of a once embedded collar, and hairless and callus ridden elbows where she had spent way too much time on concrete.  From "hello" I knew she would never be put up for adoption, because we bonded instantly--that all too often once in a lifetime attraction IF you're lucky to experience it at all.  She wanted so to live and put her abused and neglected past behind her, loving the comforts of her new home, getting to go to work with her new daddy to greet his clients, and comforting and welcoming so many other little rescues who came after her, helping them adjust to life with love and respect from humans.  And, live Molly did, even though she was likely 7 years old at time of intake.  She frolicked in our backyard and held her own with pups and furkids much younger than she.  She had a difficult first year, being heartworm positive (high +), having a mammary gland tumor that turned out to be malignant, and showing signs of "wobbler's disease," with which she also was positively diagnosed.  Thank you, Shirlee and Mark, for fostering Molly through that first year, so difficult for her.  FOSTERING SAVES LIVES!!!  But, she conquered ALL of those things to live her next 3 years here with us as she thrived with good health and basked in the sunshine of immeasurable love from us, her chosen family, that is until she was diagnosed with mast cell tumors.  We were infinitely BLESSED to be her family!  We thank God she chose us to help her forget her past and blossom into a stunning beauty, inside and out.  She blessed each and every day of our 4 years with her.  We miss her, will always miss her, love her, will always love her!  What a fantastic ambassador for her breed, a bully breed, my Rottie girl!  Romp in the meadows by the Bridge, my beloved Molly Bear; roll in the green grasses as you did in your backyard here, befriend all the squirrels you chased here, and take the time in your new world to smell ALL the roses, just as you did in this world.  Heaven truly gained an angel when you left us May 30th!  Thank you for rescuing us from our empty nest!  We are blessed that you loved us just as we will always love you!  We await joining you at the Bridge when our time here is done. 
Again, FOSTERING SAVES LIVES!  PLEASE OPEN YOUR HEART AND HOME TO A RESCUE DOG IN NEED.  You will receive far more than you give and you will cherish the experience.  You will mean the world to that rescued furkid!  Your heart will break when he/she leaves for his/her furever home, only to be captured again by the next one in need.  There is never a shortage of those in need, only foster homes in which they can blossom and learn again to trust.  PLEASE FOSTER A FURKID IN NEED!  Contact Diana at dmoore2003@bellsouth.net if you wish to help save a life!
