Hooman Heroes

Hey Doggo Lovers, Meet Olga.

Olga is a kind-hearted dog mom of two precious Doggos, Daisy and Lola, and a member of our We Love Doggos Facebook VIP Community. Olga shared with us the unique story of how this little family came together, and of course we had to share it with you guys!

It’s always interesting to read the stories we receive from our We Love Doggos community members because more times than not, these stories have an unexpected twist, and this one is no different.

Caution, if you have ever lost a dog, you might need a hankie or two nearby to wipe the tears away.

To get the full impact of this fascinating tale, we must go all the way back to 2015, where we meet Olga’s previous fur-baby, a Dachshund named Armani.

Armani was the apple of Olga’s eye and had been her faithful companion of 13 years. Armani also had a sister that he loved very much, Daisy.

Now Daisy just so happened to be a stray dog that Olga opened her home and heart to and welcomed her into their family. Daisy had grown up with Armani, and the two siblings were inseparable.…until one fateful day in December when Armani crossed over the rainbow bridge.

Olga and Daisy were both devastated. The loss and grief they felt was very real, and very heartbreaking. It was so sad to watch Daisy mope around the house. Olga knew that she could never replace Armani, she eventually needed another companion for Daisy.

Several months passed and in November of 2016, Olga decided it was time to start looking for Daisy’s new brother or sister.

It was a stressful time because Olga didn’t have a vehicle and wasn’t quite sure how she was going to find another companion suitable for Daisy.

Now here’s where the story takes that unexpected twist we mentioned earlier. You know, where the stars align and the universe says, watch this!

Olga contacted Maxx and Me, a 100% volunteer staffed, foster based adoption organization near Tampa, Florida dedicated to helping Doggos in need.

Unfortunately, they had previously been unsuccessful helping Olga find Daisy a new brother or sister, but on December 12, 2016, Olga received a call that would change both their lives.

Maxx and Me called again, and this time they were convinced they had found the perfect doggo for Olga and Daisy. She was a sweet 10-week old Lab / Shepherd mix named Lola. They offered to bring her to Olga’s apartment for a sleepover to see how everyone would get along, and Olga quickly said yes!

They played and bonded so well together, that the very next morning, Olga called and paid the adoption fee right over the phone. Lola was now a part of Olga’s family.

Now it just so happens that on that special cold December morning, the morning when Lola found her new fur-ever home, was exactly one year to the day of Armani’s passing.

Olga believes in her heart of hearts that Lola was sent to her by Armani.

What a beautiful rescue story this is, and we thank Olga for sharing it with us so that we could share it with you. If you would like to read other stories like this, visit our Super Doggos and Hooman Heroes page by clicking here.

Happy Thursday Doggo Lovers!

Thursday is one of my favorite days of the week here at the We Love Doggos Charity.

That is because I get to share with you a story of either an amazing Doggo the Hero Club helped save (a SuperDoggo) or a community member who saved a Doggo in need (a Hooman Hero).

This week I want to tell you about two Hooman Heroes from our Facebook communities.

In case you didn’t know, we run and otherwise support 4 of the largest dog Facebook groups in the world, over 427,000 combined members!

First, let’s meet Chelsey. She is a member of our German Shepherds Facebook Group. She rescued two beautiful German Shepherds named Luna and Elektra.

Elektra was a stray dropped off at a kill shelter when she was just 8 months old. Luckily, Chelsey found her there before her time was up and brought her home.

Elektra was happy, but Chelsea sensed that she needed another furry friend to really thrive. So, she kept her eyes open for a second opportunity to help another dog in need.

Boom! The universe delivered. Shortly thereafter she found out about a new litter of German Shepard puppies that needed homes. She brought Luna home not long after and Elektra and Luna have been best friends ever since! In the dog rescue world, that’s a “Two FUR”, get it…lol!

Connect On Social Media

Our community is 427,000 members strong between our German Shepherd, Husky, Dachshund, and Chihuahua Facebook groups. Feel free to join any of our groups and tell us about you and your doggo!

Second, we want to introduce you to Harshada. She is a member of our Dachshund Love Facebook Group.

She was already a rescue momma to two special Doggos when she spotted Chikoo and her brother abandoned on a busy street near the airport.

Most people would have kept on walking, not thinking twice about what might happen to these two little guys.

Not Harshada! She found a FUR-ever home for Chikoo’s brother but was WAY in love with Chikoo and couldn’t let her go.

Now there are THREE rescue Doggos all together in one incredible FUR-ever home filled with love and joy from Harshada and the rest of her Hooman family.

 
The message is clear, we stand the tallest when we stoop to help others in need. Sometime those “others in need” are furry and have 4 legs.

We love them just the same.
