ANIMAL SYNERGY
:: How It All Began... A Love Story of Sorts ::
A little Golden Love NUGGET Animal Synergy history ::
​
This little golden busted love “Nugget” helped launch the geriatric compassion program with Ferdinand & Friends and was the catalyst (along with my father & Animal Balance) for @animalsynergy.
​
I was taking a tour of the shelter with Janice/Ferdinand & Friends in San Diego and there was this little old skinny dog (he looked a little like an opossum) barely moving in the back kennel, awaiting death. The shelter said he had one more day and then that was it. I decided then and there that I would take him to spend the remainder of his old life with me and my animal family. I would love him and do everything I could to stop the pain and provide him with dignity for his last days.
​
Nugget was given 2 weeks to live, but with the amazing help of Dr. Rebeca Serrano, he lived for another 7 months. He beat the odds, lived longer, loved longer, and played longer because he received love, medical care, and respect. He changed my life and I am in awe of his golden nugget strength. I miss him every day and work in honor of his memory.
​
We will continue to provide respect and dignity to all beings, no matter their age, appearance, or health status. As we work together, we will end the needless destruction (killing) of animals and create a lifesaving nation.
​
Together, we are a movement of love. We are compassion in action. Together, we are the change.
The time is now to begin.....Begin.
We have begun.
