Puppy delivery
My niece goes to gymnastics with a little girl who unfortunately has been very, very ill. She used to do gymnastics, but her illness has kept her from gymnastics and school.
She mentioned that she really wanted a puppy to help cheer her up and keep her company at home. But as we all know, some puppies are very expensive and with everything going on, the money to purchase a puppy just wasn’t there.
People at the gym decided to raise enough money to buy her this puppy.
Rather than wait and hope enough money came together, my brother-in-law Kenton Pilek, took it upon himself to drive three hours to pick up a puppy, then another three hours to bring it back and surprise this little girl with an adorable little Chihuahua. Talk about a Merry Christmas for her!
My brother-in-law is a very generous and caring person, and I know he got just as much joy from giving the puppy, as the little girl did in receiving it.
