This Lights of Hope story by Forsyth Humane Society is that of the unconditional love four dogs provided their owners, James and Christy and their friends John and Meghin! We absolutely LOVE hearing the stories of pets and the people who love them. The families that are build around animal companionship are profoundly important and we are here for it! Please note that each of the following pets are ones that have passed and whos lives are being honored for their unconditional love during our Lights of Hope campaign. We are grateful for all the pets who have impacted the lives of people in our community and do our best to support each and every one!
Sadie: We bought Sadie as an 8 week old puppy, and she was our first dog. We lost her this past summer at 16 years old to cancer.
Lil B: We got Lil B from a rescue organization called the “Loving Pet Inn”. He was 9 years old when we got him.He was 12 when he passed away
Otis: We got Otis from the Guilford County Animal Shelter when he was 8. He was 10 when he passed away
Eve: Eve was a friend’s (John & Meghin) dog that recently passed away.. She was 13 years old
The 3 that were ours (Sadie, Lil B, Otis) gave my wife and me unconditional love and were our family. Sadie, especially, was a very special dog and was my “heart dog”. She was beautiful, smart, graceful, and unconditionally loyal.
Thank you, James and Christy for sharing your story with us and we look forward to seeing the light hung with care in honor of these sweet pups!
