Ten years ago, David rescued Babs, a Shar-Pei/Boxer mix, from a shelter. Since then, the two have been inseparable. But now, their time together is coming to an end as David, 63, battles cancer.
According to WJAR, David opted against treatment for his stage 4 lung cancer, as it would have compromised his quality of life. With a prognosis of just six more months to live, David’s top priority is ensuring a safe and loving home for Babs.
“I had told myself I was never gonna get another pet because it breaks my heart to lose them,” David shared with WJAR. “Unfortunately, she’s going to outlive me this time.”
Without any children, his loyal dog has become the most important aspect of David’s life. He describes finding a home for her as akin to finding a home for a child. “It’s like trying to find a home for your child,” he added. “She is the most important thing at this point. My fate is sealed but hers is not.”
David hopes to witness Babs settling into her new home while he is still alive. Once he enters hospice care, he plans to surrender Babs to her new family. Although the thought of parting with his dog may be devastating, he will find solace knowing she is safe and secure
Assisting David in his quest to find a suitable home for Babs is animal rescuer Jennie Mann. She has taken to social media to spread the word and evaluate potential adopters. Describing David as a “sweet kind-hearted man,” Jennie emphasizes that finding a home for Babs is his “dying wish.”
