An Old City woman, who only has weeks left to live, is searching to fulfill her last wish of finding a new owner for her dog.
FOX 29's Chris O'Connell is with an Old City woman who has terminal cancer, talking about her search to find her beloved dog a home before she passes.Valerie Alexander of Old City wants to make sure that her dog, Rosie, who she’s had for five years, is taken care of before she dies. Alexander has terminal brain cancer, and she was told by her doctor that she only has weeks left to live. Now, her main concern is finding a safe and loving home for her loyal companion.
"I want to make sure she gets as much love after I’m gone as she gives. I don’t want her to be sad, or locked in a cage or treated badly. I want someone who loves her," said Alexander. "Either one of two things will be good for Rosie-- either someone young and energetic that needs a running buddy, or someone who has a big yard and lets Rosie run around all day," he said.
