Wow! My Secret Santa was really generous. They donated $40.00 to ROMP, which is the rescue group where I got my Italian Greyhounds. Just a little background, I normally have between 4 to 5 senior Chihuahua’s or Italian Greyhounds at a time that I rescue; I wish I could help more dogs in need, but I am legally and financially limited to helping 4 to 5 at a time in my house.

One of the Italian Greyhounds that I have now, Journey, actually came all the way from Georgia. Before, she was rescued she spent 7 years as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. She was never allowed out of her cage. The first weekend we had her she broke her leg because she tried to run after the other dogs and she didn't have any muscles. She had to wear a boot for a while until it healed. Now she loves running around. She never figured out stairs, but she just waits for someone to pick her up.

I am sure ROMP will be able to use this donation to help rescue more dogs in need. Thank you.

Amazingly, my Secret Santa didn’t stop there! They actually sent me a finger puppet of Carl Jung and finger puppet of Noam Chomsky, as well as a key chain of a brain cell. I can’t wait to put these up in my classroom. I am sure my Psychology students will love them.

Thank you so much!
