Today we told you about Larry Chusid and his beloved pooch Pongo. When Pongo was diagnosed with a serious medical problem, the Chusid’s wanted to make his last days as comfortable as possible. They indulged his gourmet pallet with fresh meats and veggies.
Pongo proceeded to live another six and a half years.
Chusid believes it was that top-quality diet that helped Pongo continue to fight and gave the family so much more time with their beloved pet. In memory of his dog, Chusid created the Pongo Fund.
To say that they deliver pet food to homeless pets or that they have a pet food bank open to anyone in need does not quite do justice to their efforts. For info on how to donate or to learn more about the effort check out their website.
