This is Laurie Schwartz's beloved Yorkshire Terrier- Poodle mix named Fudgie! Since his original owners could not provide him with the love, attention, companionship he craved “. . . and food,” quips Laurie, so she adopted him.
Fate had its hand in uniting these “soul mates.” Laurie, who lives in
But a joyous opportunity would eventually appear when Laurie received a call from these owners had no time to supply this charming little dog. She finally saw the light and offered Fudgie to Laurie. Of course, she said "yes" because Fudgie had already stolen her heart.
"We're bonded together like glue!" says Laurie, using an interesting analogy, as Laurie is a versatile, accomplished, and gifted crafter. See a small sample of her work at: LuLu's Crafts. This side doesn’t even begin to cover the scope of Laurie’s work and talent.
After Laurie suffered an accident that kept her homebound, Fudgie, a born therapy dog, helped her recuperate and even today is always by her side for hugs, kisses, or just "time to chill."
She cannot imagine life without this very special spirit-- truly her best friend and companion! What Fudgie gives to Laurie, she turns around and gives back tenfold or and more. She donates hand-made Afghans to an organization called Hugs for Homeless Animals. During the summer when the need for blankets decreases, Laurie stays active in food drives for homeless dogs and cats.
Contains a whole line of Fudgie products!
Another one of Laurie Schwartz's favorite outlets for her charity is The Little Shelter, a no-kill animal adoption center in Huntington, New York that provides a variety of wonderful services to animals in need. I post this to thank Laurie and all others whose hearts go out to animals in need and especially those whose commitment to those, like Laurie Schwartz, whose actions back up that dedication.
With heartfelt gratitude,
