I really struggle with the some of the posts I publish to the newsfeed. This morning, I got online very early and saw one of Genia’s posts that a 3 month old puppy had only until 8:00 am to be saved. That was only 90 minutes away from the time I read the post. I knew the odds for a pawsitive outcome were very slim, and I know how much people dislike seeing a post with either no time left to network, or one past the time the dog was to be killed. But I felt prompted to posted anyway, because I know miracles can happen – and the Pawsitively Texas community is one powerful, compassionate group of people. Here is the post from about 6:30 am …

Many people were touched by his story; Kathryn in Dallas was one of them. Even though “Lil Man,” as he is called, was in Longview, Kathryn in Dallas knew she could foster him and help buy him time to find a forever home. Fosters are truly heroes, aren’t they?! We were all on edge waiting to see if Kathryn could get through to the animal shelter before it was too late … but as happens with miracles, she did! And he is safe! Volunteer transporters will help him hitch a ride to Dallas. You can read the full story on our Pawsitively Texas Facebook page here, if you like.
