Today I pulled 15 dogs from a high kill shelter for two great rescues. You have to ask yourself, yes that’s 15 that are safe, but how many were left behind. Maybe I don’t want to know. Maybe it’s better not knowing. But whatever the answer is, I know there were some. If I could have saved them all I would. No dog in any shelter is better than any other. All deserve to live. All deserve a life. We just keep doing it one dog at a time. Is there an end to it all? Not in my lifetime I know that for sure, but maybe one day there won’t be any at the kill shelters. We can dream, can’t we?

Today I started out with only one dog to pick up at a vet office and take to boarding in Palmdale. While I am there a few calls were received to pull a few more since you are going anyway. I am used to that and doesn’t normally present a problem, as long as I have enough kennels. Which in this case I did. So I stopped by the shelter and pulled 3 more. I could get photos of only one, the others I couldn’t get photos of because they were a little skittish on loading, so we had our hands full with them. Got them loaded and off to boarding we went. Unloading, except for the nice guy, was again a little slower than normal. But we did it and I know these guys were just nervous and upset with all the moving around. In a few days they will come around and it will never be known what a handful they were.
