Destiny was left outside, suffering from a mammary tumor that hung heavily from her chest. Over a span of two years, neighbors repeatedly reached out for help on her behalf. Calhoun City Animal Control has a record of several visits to the property since March 23rd; in January, the animal control director even witnessed her tumor but only issued verbal warnings. Neighbors continued to call for assistance, and it was their persistent efforts, especially in reaching out to us, that ultimately led to her receiving help.

Our rescue is now dedicated to seeking justice for Destiny and advocating for change within our local animal control. There should be no one in this position if they cannot enforce the laws or recognize clear signs of neglect.

Destiny was a cherished soul, and her mistreatment did not go unnoticed by God. While we hope for accountability through law enforcement and the legal system, it may not lead to the justice we seek.

After surviving her surgeries, Destiny was on a promising path to recovery. However, she tragically began to bleed profusely, and despite the ER vet's efforts, she passed away. Destiny, we will always remember you, sweet angel. Our lives are richer for having known you, even for a brief time.
