Lee, the founder of Asher House and an avid animal rescue and rehabilitator, instantly fell in love with a dog named Millie. The connection was immediate; Lee embraced her tightly, allowing Millie to feel his heartbeat, conveying a sense of safety and reassurance. Millie’s gaze was filled with hope, and Lee felt a deep responsibility to ensure her wellbeing. Millie needed time to heal and learn how to accept love in order to transform into the perfect companion for a family. Lee was happy to take on the challenge. The dog was amazingly sweet from the start!
As they left the animal hospital, Millie’s attachment to Lee became evident. She kept her eyes fixed on him, finding comfort in his presence. “Let’s go home,” Lee whispered as he settled her into his car, where she quickly relaxed and fell asleep. They were headed back to Asher House, where Millie would join the pack and learn how to ‘dog.’
Upon arriving home, Millie was eagerly greeted by the rest of Lee’s pack. The other dogs were thrilled to meet their new foster sister, embracing her into the family without hesitation. “Come on, Millie,” they seemed to say, welcoming her with open paws. Two months into her new life, Millie had undergone a remarkable transformation. She had gained weight and flourished under Lee’s care, embracing the joys of being a dog.
