Dreams Come True

The Senior Dream Center received a request from Elderly United that read, in part,

"George Reggina is a senior who volunteers with Elderly United. Last December, he rescued a dog on the street who had been thrown out by his owners. He has cared for him since with very limited means. George is a very compassionate man , and would love to be able to give "Stash" (when he gives him food he "stashes" it!) what he needs. Stash needs a good grooming - shampoo, clip etc. Doggie toys, treats, bones and a bed would be wonderful. Stash is a 45 lb shepherd/border collie mix. George has selflessly helped so many people and a variety of animals and it would be so great if we could help him."

The Senior Dream Center got to work. In conjunction with Petsmart, Jackson, Lytle & Williams Funeral Home, Neal Kennels, Southwest Landmark, and Senior Advisory Services Group, we arranged for "Stash" to get the pampering he needed.

Sylvia Will, owner of Neal Kennels, gave him a good bathing and a desperately needed grooming.

Southwest Landmark provided dog food and the local Petsmart store provided treats, toys and a bed — everything today's modern dog requires.

Thanks to the Senior Dream Center and its cooperating businesses, Stash is now a well-groomed, cultured dog-about-town.

And thank you to George Reggina for his selfless service to Elderly United.
