As any
animal nut, it is not news to hear that we at the rescue centre generally tend
to prefer animals to humans! However, this past weekend the 16 and 17 March, we
were star struck not by one but by 2 South African celebrities.
On
Saturday, Leigh-Ann Mol, news presenter on the Gareth Cliff show on 5fm visited
the Rescue with her family who came to adopt a large breed dog. They left with
beautiful Maizy- a swiss Shepherd (her brother Zac was adopted last week).
Strangely enough, this is the second unplanned encounter that the avid animal
lover Leigh-Ann and Woodrock’s very own Stella have crossed paths.
Approximately 7 years ago, Stella assisted Lee-Ann with the placement of a
little rescue dog “Princess. What can we say- sometimes things are meant to
be!! It was wonderful having Leigh-Ann and her family visit and adopt and we
hope this will be the start of a “planned” future together.
On
Sunday, after Doggy day (blog post to be released on Thursday), Nicholas and
Stella were invited by Louise Carver, gifted songstress and South African
musician to come and watch her perform in Hennops Valley, and receive a
donation of food she had raised for them. A wonderful and entertaining
afternoon concluded a busy weekend for the matriarch and patriarch of Woodrock
as always in rescue the juice is always worth the squeeze especially when you
get to meet down to earth, charitable and talented celebrities. Thanks Louise
you Woodrock!!
Until
next time,
