Wonderful Wonderful news! I donated and I want to thank everyone else who did for this beautiful boy and his Master. I will pray for David's speedy recovery. Please update on his success, and Mr. Reister's health. Thank you so much, Kathy G - Indianapolis
I am so pleased and happy that there are still decent caring people left in this world. To see the generosity to a veteran and his fur kid is truly inspirational. I live in Nova Scotia and have been following this story via my yahoo animal groups. And i can't wait to pass this update on. Bless you all who have helped them.
this is a wonderful statement about a man's commitment to his dog and how good people will come together and help an individual who is trying so hard on his own. please keep us informed on the outcome of the surgery.
It's wonderful to hear that Mr.Reister was able to raise all the required funds for his dogs surgery and hopefully once David gets his surgery he will be able to remain with Mr.Reister for a very longtime as his faithful companion and I for one was happy to help.
I beleive that Lauren has made us all aware of the kindness between man (woman)
