BACK TO THE DOGS AGAIN: GRETCHEN, SHE TRULY HAD A WILL TO LIVE

NORTH FLORIDA WRITER LIVE RETURNS TO THE WONDERS OF THE CANINE WORLD WITH A LITTLE STORY ABOUT A WONDERFUL RESCUE DOG, GRETCHEN, WHO WAS ALL HEART AND YEARNED FOR LIFE.  SHE INSPIRED THE FAMILY, GAINED OUR LOVE AND ATTENTION ANS SHOWED WHAT IT MEANS TO FIGHT TO LIVE.  HER WHOLE LIFE WAS A BATTLE YET SHE NEVER COMPLAINED, ALWAYS SHOWED GOOD CHEER AND WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED. FOUND SICK AND IN THE GUTTER ON A BUSY CITY STREET, SHE WAS WITH US FOR OVER TEN WONDERFUL YEARS BEFORE SHE FINALLY HAD TO GIVE UP THE GHOST. HER LITTLE BODY JUST RAN OUT OF GAS.

WE'LL ALSO SHARE A FEW WORDS FROM AN ANONYMOUS LISTENER WHO SENT ME HER OWN DOG STORY. IT OFFERS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE JOY AND LOVE THAT AMERICA'S BEST FRIEND CAN ALWAYS BRING TO LIFE.  GOD BLESS THEM ALL, PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
