Olesia, I am so sorry you lost your girl last week. She was a beauty, from pup to matron. Thank you for sharing her story, and for your generosity in creating this group. Tucker and I would be lost without you and Izzy.---Pam

Oh, dear, I'm so sorry to hear this. She has left behind a wonderful legacy. Many of our 4 footed friends have lived good lives because of her, through the epi4dogs website.🌈

Olesia:

What can I say that hasn't been said by several others already. The love you had for your little Izzy is just amazing. Every time I would see you post something, the photo of Izzy with the mouthful of tennis balls would pop up --- and every single time it made me smile. It's like she was smiling for all the world to see. What an incredibly smart dog she was.....I had no idea you could train a dog to do all of the things you described.

I will be forever grateful to Izzy and to you --- because of EPI4Dogs. When our Sadie was diagnosed with EPI, we were at a TOTAL loss on what to do. We didn't know anything about this dreaded disease and how to properly care for her. I jumped online and your web page was in the No. 1 spot - where it belong - so I clicked on it --- and the rest is history. I know you have seen my many posts for help. I honestly don't know if Sadie would be alive or even stable if it wasn't for the tireless work of the staff and the abundance of information posted on the Foundation's website. I am sure you saved countless numbers of pets that you aren't even aware of.

Izzy is in a wonderful place now.....and you are left with all of her incredible memories. God speed in getting through this incredibly tough time in your life.

Fly high Izzy, fly high.

Hugs. Sadie & Lisa
