All these guys and gals were pulled today from a shelter that had them on today’s kill list. By looking at them they are all chihuahua something, mostly the plain tan color and most have minor medical issues of one sort or another. Rescues had passed them by as had adopters. No they weren’t colorful, no they weren’t young, and no they weren’t overly friendly; but after spending just 15 minutes with them and showing them a little kindness, most opened right up and just wanted more attention (and treats). Next time you visit a shelter, check out the ones that are just plain. They might just surprise you.

Went to a shelter to get seven and was told one had been “euthanized”, code for they killed him. They make it sound like he went out for an ice cream. Why can’t they say “we killed him”. Don’t try to clean it up. It sucks no matter how it’s said. Dead is dead. Anyway I got these others out at the last minute, so at least that’s a save in my book. All were sweet, they just wanted to be out. I would too if I had to live under the knife 24/7. Just another day paddling upstream.
