My Story

In Memory of Aggie Zittle.

The best friends transport is dedicated to Aggie Zittle and her best friend Alice. They met in grade school and their friendship lasted 65+ years.  They grew up together, had careers, raised families and experienced widowhood and divorce at similar times.  This brought them even closer along with a shared enjoyment of gardening, cooking, and BBC television to name just of few.  They were each other’s family and faithfully spoke every Saturday morning.  When Aggie was diagnosed with cancer she and Alice took a trip to Italy.  When the cancer spread, Alice was one of Aggie’s caregivers.  One of their regular outings was to the Artful Gardener and especially the Cabin Fever event benefiting Joyful Rescues.  They are big supporters and loved many pets.  Somehow stray or orphaned animals found their way to them.  Aggie would have loved knowing that every dog in this transport has been given the chance to be someone’s new best friend.

Andy was born about March 5, 2019 and will likely weigh in the 25-30 lb. range when full grown, but we are just guessing.  He truly does appear to be a Beagle pup…at this time.  He is sweet, fun and funny as Beagles tend to be and we sure are glad he made the trip north to safety.  He's wonderful with other dogs and everything and everyone else he's met.   This is all we know so far and we will be learning as we go.  The southern shelter feels it is embarrassing to ask questions when humans drop off their dogs as the reason is so often financial in this poverty stricken coal mining area of VA.
