This pattern is another collaborative effort with SMotoExpress, you can find great detail and direction on her pattern pages, as well as lovely photos of all her Dishies. She will be on hand during our KAL for questions and support.

Saundra is my rescued German Shepherd dog, she suffers with severe polyarthritis and is currently unable to stand or walk. Its my hope that with continued physical and hydro therapy she will become strong enough to support herself in a mobility cart, and run around on her own.

All proceeds from the sale of this pattern go directly to support Saundra’s ongoing therapy and the purchase of her Custom mobility cart.

More of Saundra’s story can be read on Facebook, along with pictures and regular updates.

A very special Thank You to everyone who has offered their kindness and support on our journey , Saundra continues to thrive and surprise me with her joy and strength each day. I am so happy to have all of you to share my story
