Happy Birthday Lucy!

Happy Birthday Lucy!


Our wonderful sanctuary girl Lucy is celebrating her 15th birthday! GRRMF never gave up on this precious girl. Arriving in rescue Jan 2019 with multiple infections, all kinds of worms, skin issues, stones and many other procedures and treatments needed since then is also now a cancer survivor!  Years of love and care by her forever foster mom Marcia and the necessary GRRMF medical investment in her care totaling over $40,000, keeps this gal happy and thriving! One look at that smiling face you know her continued care is priceless.

A special birthday party was held in Lucy’s honor by her vets and grooming family at Integrative Animal Hospital of Central Florida in Sanford. Everyone wore a shirt they designed for Lucy’s birthday and serenaded her with several songs. We can’t thank them enough for their continued care and hosting this special event for Lucy. Also a special thank you to our volunteer photographer, Scott Cowan, who captured the special photos and videos of the day you see here and on our Facebook page.  Thank you all!

Every Wed is her necessary treatments to keep her infections and skin issues under control. She becomes their office ambassador, greeting all her fellow furries coming in for their examinations and treatments.

You Rock Lucy!

Happy Birthday sweet girl!

Help us continue to meet Lucy’s daily needs for the time she has left as well as all our other pups who rely on GRRMF to save, protect, heal and find their forever home.

Lucy’s Favorite Things (sung to Sound of Music tune)

Chasing the squirrels and cuddling with kittens
Visit groomers and vets with whom I am smitten
Taking a walk in the cool of the spring
These are a few of my favorite things

VIP treatment – special baths and spa time
Makes me feel great and smell oh very fine
Chewing a special bone mom always brings
These are a few of my favorite things

Chorus:

When my skin itches
When my mom’s busy
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t feel so bad

Hearing a bag rattle, means I get a treat
Yet Mom Marcia’s love surely cannot be beat
Barking: Hello neighbor dogs! – like a doorbell rings
These are a few of my favorite things

Stuffed toys and a ball when it’s time for play
Greeting and loving when dogs come to stay
Watching dogs on TV who bark and sing
These are a few of my favorite things

Chorus:

When my skin itches
When my mom’s busy
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t feel so bad
