Meet Comet! Comet, a beautiful golden retriever from Rhode Island, was one of the lucky pets that got a new wheelchair from Kathy Barton’s 4th graders in Oklahoma. Comet tested his new wheels at the RISPCA, where Marvin and Dr. Finocchio – who also contributed to the 4th graders 2008 fundraiser – looked on with delight as Comet raced around the room. The new wheels replaced an old, “recycled” set that Comet’s family had received from a friend. Comet’s rear legs were paralyzed from an auto accident two years ago, but between the love and devotion of his family and his rolling legs, this dog doesn’t seem to notice that he’s “handicapped.” Two local RI television newsmen were there to film Comet, and this happy story was then picked up by television news affiliates across the country! |
