Happy 1 year anniversary Trin!

[chaospony]

Today marks Trin's 1 year anniversary of freedom!
Exactly one year ago today the humane society international shut down the Paws R Us puppymill in Quebec and seized all 500+ dogs. Trin, her mom and dad and siblings from 3 litters were amongst them.
She's come so far after spending her first year locked in a barn and never seeing sunlight.
Today there are extra snuggles and next week is a huge family reunion of all the Afghan family with lure coursing and food and a big celebration of how far they have come....and how spoiled they all are!

Trin is the pup in the crate at around the 30 sec mark in this video and her little bro Caleb is at 1:00

We have a bunch of the Freedom dogs visiting the store this week. So many of them are here, recovering and doing just awesome. Our previous store foster girl from PRU, Lucha, is just doing amazing with her new foster family. <3
