In a heartwarming tale of cross-border compassion, Suki, a rescue dog from Tobago, is set to embark on a life-changing journey to Massachusetts on November 13. This initiative is spearheaded by the Venus Doggess Of Love NGO, which has successfully rehomed 18 animals, including two cats, in New England. The organization has cultivated a robust network of animal lovers, including veterinarians, dog trainers, and daycare center owners, who facilitate these adoptions. While some question the cost and effort involved, the NGO emphasizes that international adopters cover all travel expenses, making it a financially viable option. In cases where local homes are unavailable, foster arrangements are made, with travel funds raised through donations and fundraisers. The dedicated team in Massachusetts even covers their own expenses, ensuring a seamless transition for the animals. Suki’s journey was supported by a recent film screening at Mount Irvine Bay Resort, which raised sufficient funds for her travel crate and airfare. Despite the challenges of local adoption, the NGO highlights the long-term cost-effectiveness of sending dogs abroad compared to indefinite local care. Suki, part of a group dubbed ‘The Famous Five,’ has been in the NGO’s care for two years, with two of her companions already thriving in Canada. As the land used for their shelter is now needed by its owners, the NGO urgently seeks loving homes for the remaining two dogs, Frankie and Jojo, before dismantling the facility. This story underscores the power of international collaboration in transforming the lives of rescue animals.
