I hadn't checked on Maddie's progress today but the post from Spencer told it all. I just read the latest update and I am crying, yes over a dog that I never knew but a very sweet little soul who was dealt with so unkindly here on earth. Now she is at peace with no pain and I am thankful for that. Her story has driven me to hug and kiss my pets over and over again in appreciation for their health and just for being in my life. I simply do not understand Maddie's previous owners. How can one behave this way to a precious life who offers only unconditional love (humans are not even this way....lots of times humans love but with conditions placed). Maddie, I agree with Spencer, Rest in Peace sweet little one and say hi to my precious Peaches, Pumpkin, Ashey and Whitney who have gone before. Tell them I love them and miss them too. Yes Spencer there must be more punishment for this type of crime and, make no mistake about it, what happened to Maddie is a crime!!!
