Antoinette one of our former Yonkers shelter dogs waited well
over 2 years for a home of her own. A couple of years ago she
finally she found it a wonderful devoted dad 2 human brothers 4
canine siblings and couple feline siblings too. Antoinettes family
has endured more than We can imagine truly can’t even make this up.
Believe me I ve verified it all because seem to unbelievable.
Antoinette dad lost his job and after months found a new one but of
course he is paid less. Next The boys mother was tragically killed in
a car accident upstate last year Followed by their dad requiring 2
heart surgeries and now walking the dogs he stepped into a pothole
and broke his leg Antoinette found another job after the last one
fired him because a fancy board member of building complained he was
feeding and encouraging feral cats. Undaunted he found another
working for Stanley steamer but while doing some yard work he
literally cut his finger in half using an cement grinder. Again
unable to fulfill his job duties at work Raising 2 sons on his own
And minimal insurance coverage the Antoinette dad is struggling to
keep food on the table for all pay bills and keep everything
together It’s bsck to school and the boys need supplies. Clothes
etc
He is a wonderful dad and an amazing pet owner putting
everyone ahead of himself. Antoinette and her furry siblings are dogs
nobody else wanted because they aren’t easy if given to a shelter
they won’t stand a chance They are actually difficult at times and
many would have just given up on them but he won’t . Friends have told
him to move start again find cheaper apartment. His response simply
“ I can’t I have dogs no one but me loves or wants What would become
of them.? . We are hoping to help this family and raise enough
funds to cover some of their bills and expenses so they can regroup
Please help if you can. We never know when life will throw us a
curve.or in their case a sink hole
We just Trying to give them a meaningful and Merry Christmas to Antoinette’s family through no fault of their own are living on the edge financially and struggle every month to just cover the costs of providing the basics like food, shelter, clothingso putting together a Christmas or other winter holiday celebration can be a real challenge for some of them o surprise that many of these families do without gifts and presents for their children and loved ones. With your help, we can make this Christmas a little brighter for this family. Thank you for caring
