GREAT NEWS….SPIRIT IS HOME!!
Today Spirit joined Morgan Marturanes and son Cal of Middleton, WI. Spirit is a lucky survivor of the horrific dog meat trade of Thailand. She has lived at Elfes World in Koh Samui with around 650 other rescues until last Monday when she flew to Chicago to find her forever home.
Morgan and Cal are thrilled to welcome Spirit home. They look forward to long walks together and lots of cuddles and playtime. Cal was so gentle with Spirit and I know that he will take good care of her and give her lots of love. Best friends in the making for sure.
Thank you to Elfe for rescuing this sweet girl, providing her such loving care, and working so hard to give her a better life.
Thank you to Morgan and Cal for opening your hearts and home to sweet Spirit.
Spirit’s Story
Hi, my name is Spirit. I am a petit little girl – I have a beautiful brindle colored coat – I may be a corgi mix as I have short legs and only weigh about 22 pounds. I am 3 years young and have the spirit of a young child who is just waiting to blossom and spread my wings. So much of my youth has been marked with tragedy and hardship. I am a survivor of the horrible dog meat trade in Thailand – I narrowly escaped death the day the smuggler’s truck I was on was intercepted by the Royal Thai Police. However, more hardship followed as I was then transported to a large government livestock shelter where many around me perished due to overcrowding and lack of food and medical. My prayers were answered when I was taken to Elfe’s World Sanctuary on the island of Koh Samui in Thailand. There a kind woman named Elfe cares for me and over 600 other dogs. Elfe has shown me love and the hope of a better future. However, I long for human interaction and my spirit is dwindling day by day as I lost hope in a better future.
My prayers have been answered as I am told I will soon be boarding a big metal bird and flying to the USA to find my family. I am a sweet girl who loves to be around people. I am good with other dogs. I am a smart girl and learn very fast. I would make an excellent friend, companion, and family member if you would just give me a chance.
Spirit arrives into Chicago on Monday, November 30th and is looking for her forever home. If you are interested in adopting please contact Dawn Trimmel at 414-426-4148 or trimmel@usa.net
