I think all rescue stories should be in the new section. Do the greenies have the ability to move post? Would it be possible to move the existing rescue stories to the new section?

Waiting 12 Days is a Lifetime

Little boy Duncan comes home in 12 days. Had to share a new picture. Terrina still does not know if she wants to slug or hug me [:D]
I am hoping for the hug.
