The tiny pup that stole Brent's heart and is inspiring others
Last month, Good Things Guy Brent Lindeque suffered a tragedy when his little six-month-old puppy Emma Stone died after eating a highly poisonous Cycas/Cycad seed in his garden.
"We had no idea that the Cycas/Cycad plants were so incredibly poisonous. We have been living in the same house, with the same garden, with two other pups for almost nine years and had never had a problem but on the 16 July she started violently throwing up, and our lives changed forever."
"It was a tragedy for our entire family
who adopted her on the 11th of March 2020 and spent every single waking
moment with her until the 29th of July when she fell into a deep sleep
and crossed the rainbow bridge," writes Brent in an article on his website, Good Things Guy.
Now, in honour of the pup's memory, Brent has set up a new donation campaign that will raise much-needed funds for an animal charity he supports, while helping kids with rare diseases.
Woodrock Animal Rescue was founded in 1992 by Nicholas and Stella Meldau
whose focus, passion and drive helped their animal rescue vision become
a reality.
The Animal Rescue Centre originated in the suburban area of
Woodmead and Khyber Rock, hence the name Woodrock, but they're now based
on 8.5 hectares in the beautiful Hennops River Valley.
