Ricochet
This is one of the most inspirational and motivational stories that I have ran across. The story of Ricki shows how dissapointment can be turned into something wonderful. Allowing Ricki to just be what she wanted to be, she showed how she can be a service dog, on her terms. Thinking outside of the box and you can see the joy and passion this dog has for what she does.

Gypsy
 Meet Gypsy. This photo when I first ran into it on the Internet haunted me for months. How could a dog endure so much suffering? How was this dog alive? What kind of life has this dog had? The dog surley was put down. Later on I ran into the story of this dog. Gypsy, she had a name. She had a story. She survived! Gypsy was a victim of the dog fighting world. She was picked up and saved by angels that stayed by her side and let her fight for a life she so badly wanted to fight for. Gypsy wanted to live and that she did! The pictures are horrible and very graphic but Gypsy after all the hard work is beautiful!
