so this might not make much sense, as i'm currently shaking. for the last 12 hours, and mostly in the last 3, i've received a complete influx of donations. and i went from have $20 to over $900. you guys are so amazing. i wish i could say more, but i'm just in shock. thank you, thank you, thank you and a million times thank you.

everyone who has donated even a dollar, to those who have donated 100 and 200 dollars. each and every one of you are making a huge difference in not only zeus' life, but in mine.

every one of you who read about zeus on the vine, on divie or any other way you may have heard about zeus. from the bottom of my heart..

thank you

  4. you have a tremendous amount of love in your heart - not only for this dog but in the capacity of just being human. to see it attempt to be matched is phenomenal. this dog and you were meant to find each other and you should be commended for doing all you can to love this animal in the way that she should be loved and provided for. i'll keep sharing this and i hope the money keeps trickling in!

    reposting this in a few places for you now, too. i'll look out for it on ONTD!

  9. Tomato Nation, baby! The BF and I donated to your sweet puppy about an hour ago and have been watching the progress. Reckon Zeus can make an appointment and get well within a couple of days!

    Keep posting and let us know how you and Zeus are doing.

    Much love,

    Shonda and Michael T.

  16. Here from TN as well - Thank you for opening your heart to Zeus, for sharing your story and for letting so many of us be a part of it. Please keep us updated post-surgery; I've never met Zeus, but as an animal lover and the owner of my own beautiful shelter dog, I'm invested in his story now.

  18. Donated in memoriam of my late kitty Max. Hopefully the extra comes in handy in the care I'm sure he'll need after the surgery. Gosh, I'm almost tearing up here at work. :)

  20. I was on Tomato Nation, saw your story, and zipped right over here.I chipped in some money for Zeus, in honor of my late pets. My dog Jack (1997-2005) was a shelter dog from Georgia and it sounded like the first few months of his life were pretty rough (we adopted him when he was about 6 months old): he was hand-shy, he cowered when my dad yelled during the Eagles' game, and he did not want to be anywhere near tall men with dark hair and beards. And this was a 120-pound Doberman-Rottweiler we're talking about. But Jack was one of the sweetest dogs I've ever met. I think his very first owners had tried to train him to be an aggressive, attack dog and when that didn't work, they just turned him loose on the streets of Savannah. Good luck, Vivian-- I hope Zeus has a quick and full recovery. He looks like such a sweetie in your blog pictures!

  21. I am so glad that Zeus is getting the love he needs, via dog versions of Grey's Anatomy, and from you! Found this through TN, and will be adding this to my tool bar. All the best from Alberta, will be keeping track of you both!
