Cameron

With great sadness I have to report that “Cam” was put to sleep on Wed.  I adopted him in 2010 from your group and he has been with me 12+ years as a loyal, loving companion.  It is so hard to let them go, especially when they were such a great...

Chloe

Yesterday, our sweet Chloe crossed over the rainbow bridge. She joined our family 8 years ago after we saw her picture and story on the LFS Facebook page. What caught our eye was how much she looked like our dog Kaiah and they had the same birthday. We later found out...
