Madison's Road Trip to Wisconsin!

Some of you may remember Madison. She was brought to the shelter as a stray. She was very scared, but she quickly became a favorite of some of the volunteers. Once she warmed up to you, she was very gentle and loyal. It was obvious that she had been a loved pet, but for some reason, she was never claimed. One of our volunteers, Tracey, searched for rescues that might take her. She found a German Shepherd rescue that wanted her. Just one catch. It was in Wisconsin! Tracey doesn't let things like this phase her and immediately made plans to drive Madison to the rescue. She made an appointment at the vet to make sure Madison had the proper shots to make the trip, and then they were both ready to go. Tracey's dad joined them along the way to keep them company. Tracey spent parts of Friday, Saturday, and early Sunday making the trip to Wisconsin and back. She still managed to show up at the shelter Sunday afternoon to help walk dogs for several hours! Now that's dedication! Thanks Tracey! We appreciate all you do to help our pets at the shelter!

I'm inspired by Tracey's selfless efforts to help animals in need. The animals at the shelter have a true advocate in Tracey.
