Ruby loves Suburban Paws. I love Suburban Paws. Everyone loves Suburban Paws! Our Ruby was used as a bait dog. She was and still is afraid of everything - even almost four years later. If a napkin breezes off the table, she runs for cover in the back of the house. We wanted to teach her basic commands such as sit, stay and down. When Rebecca came to meet Ruby for the first time, Ruby did something she never did before. She showed trust to a stranger. That's the kind of peaceful energy and love Rebecca exudes. Within less than a half hour, Ruby was following Rebecca's gentle command to sit and receive her favorite treat - a piece of chicken! Even after her "lesson", for the remainder of the evening, Ruby stuck by Rebecca's side and got lots of affection. This was a huge hurdle for her.
When I first Rebecca, I felt the same way - I love this woman! She was someone you could easily talk to, confide in and trust. I am proud to call her my friend. She has demonstrated selflessness beyond belief and has never given up on any animal or human in need. She has put her own needs and life on hold to do for others - especially the furry others. Against all odds, through thick and thin, she has saved the lives of many. Rebecca has rescued animals scheduled to die from kill shelters, providing them with the medical care, a wam home, socialization and training. She has shown those abandoned, abused and lost souls how to trust and be loved. She has brought them out of despair. In doing so, she was able to find them new homes and families where they are now flourishing. Some took longer than others, but Rebecca never gave up. Through tears and hope, she came through for those angels. For the one furry friend she saved from death but wasn't able to be put into a typical home, Rebecca worked tirelessly to find an alternative that would allow this pup to live a real life. With dedication and perserverence, she raised the money to send that innocent pup to a wonderful sanctuary, where she is now running free with other pups and is not confined to a cage or sentenced to death.
Rebecca is the type of person every human and furry friend needs in their life. She's loving, genuine, sincere and truly cares. You will not find a better person to care for your furkids. read more
