Lucy and Jason

Some of you know already that the Akst's long time canine companion, Sandi, had to be put to sleep a few weeks ago due to failing health. Barbara, Jason's mom, doesn't want to get a new dog or puppy but has rather decided to become a foster parent for a Golden Retriever rescue. Due to the increasing foreclosures in the area, there seems to be a high number of pets being given up when their owners have to leave their homes. So Thursday evening a situation came up where two dogs, Lucy and Jason, were being given up together and the rescue organization wanted to keep them together. Barbara was only too happy to help and now we have met two sweetheart Goldens, Lucy (age 8) and Jason (age 9). They will be residing here with the Aksts until adopted - together. Go Barbara!
