to the rescue! I should really design a shirt or something coz I’m so all over the place rescuing doggies that it’s about time I at least look identifiable while doing it, seeing as I look like I’ve lost my mind while doing it.
There have been so many that I have actually lost count. The saddest case, was a very small maltese female that was in such bad condition with broken bones and septic bite wounds. Euthanising was the only option to put end to her misery. I am so shaken up about this one. She collapsed basically on our doorstep and if it wasn’t for all the dogs and ours barking I would not have known she was there. Still breaks my heart.
At least a few days later after returning from an exhausting day trip we picked up a Labrador that in the end had a happy ending being reunited with her mommy.
Those that we land up having to take to the shelter who do not seem to have hope in being reunited is just as tough. I hate knowing that they are caged up like a prisoner on death row. Only ONE of those that I’ve taken in this year has found a happy home. The latest pick up, a male husky, spent a whole day with us. He was an absolute treasure and my pack welcomed him into their yard without hesitation. He spent the entire day by my side while I worked on diy and garden stuff.
There’s forever that inclination to want to keep this one and then the next one gets picked up and then you want to keep that one. They are all really special in their own unique way. All having one thing in common – their life path decided that an unkind uncaring irresponsible human was their master at one point. Sometimes I wish bad people really did get whats coming to them, abusers do not deserve to live. I get so incredibly angry that I feel sick to my stomach.
But it’s another day in the life of ME. It wouldn’t be my life if I didn’t have challenges on a daily basis. I will make a difference and one day it will matter enough to change thinking.
