Sometime last year, someone abandoned a beautiful black lab. Now, despite cruelty, a veteran has a loving new companion.
Heartworm-positive and with scars from a too-tight collar around her neck, the dog ended up at the Barnesville animal shelter. Seeing potential, Sandra Bray of Barnesville Pound Pups rescued her and named her Brooke.

Pets for Vets chapter director Tanya Liard (left) and Sgt. Dennis pose with Savannah at her first meeting with her vet. “Savannah will help Sgt. Dennis adjust back into civilian life. She’s a calm and loving dog – for a lab. She does wonderfully with him.”
A win-win, and an uplifting story in a sometimes bewildering world.
I applaud those who help others.
By the way, does Ms. Bray take donations and if so is there an address. Does she have a website? Thanks!
