LUCY finally re-homed

Time for stretching her legs

Towards the end of January this year, LUCY, our gentle GreekSTRAY started her journey by road to her forever, loving home.........Germany. It was a very sad day, because LUCY was such a beautiful stray dog, that just appeared from nowhere.  She lived in the field together with all the stray pussycats and was their protector.  But because of the hostility and cruelty from the adjacent Greek neighbours, it was important to find a home for her.  Posting her on the social sites, was pretty easy, but waiting for interests took a little longer than anticipated.   There are so many, all looking for homes for strays.  Finally a loving home was found.  A very kind person by the name of Eddy Althoff, was interested, and because he has always homed older strays, he loved LUCY and hoped she would get on with his other adopted stray girl.  

Good bye LUCY

We didn't know how she would react in the car for the long journey, but she was as good as gold.  We waited a short while at Corinth and then the transport came.  Eddy wanted her to fly, but because of her weight and the confusion with the airlines, it was agreed that she would go by road.  When we saw all the other little rescued doggies, it was quite sad, but happy, because homes had been found for them.  LUCY had never been in a cage before and she was very reluctant to enter the cage.  But after a little persuasion, in she went.  Off they went and we just stood there crying.  

Home for the next couple of days

A couple of days later we knew she was to arrive at agreed destination.  Anxiously, we and Eddy waited for news of her arrival.  Once we heard that she had been reunited with her new owners, it was sheer relief.  We have spoken to Eddy on a few occasions and the news has always been good.  She has settled which is amazing.  LUCY's life is now beginning, with a loving family, who will spoil her rotten.  She so deserves this and I am so happy.

My sincere thanks go to Eddy for his kindness for taking LUCY, also for funding the whole of this operation.  Looking after so many strays, is financially draining for us, but the work has to continue.  I hope to report of many more happy stories in the future.
