Well you would never know it, but all these guys and gals were very lucky indeed. All were on borrowed time and they just made it out of the shelter in time. Then after they went to boarding, the shelter said some were exposed to Parvo by a kennel mate at the shelter. So now some need a double dose of luck as they wait out the waiting period to see if they come down with it (7 days). If they didn’t have bad luck I guess they wouldn’t have any at all. All we can do is wait and see what happens.

As sad stories go, this is one that has been dragged out way too long. Meet Daisy, a 40 lb or so non descript small to medium dog that was going nowhere. Three years ago this dog was turned over to a rescue, to try and rehome. Well they didn’t have much luck, she is a blackish/brownish color, no features, scared out of her little mind when you come close to her, and I am guessing maybe also a fear biter. She was kept in a kennel 3 years, then she was moved south to the desert, where I am sure no one ever looked at her twice. Finally her fosters from 3 years ago said they wanted her back when they found out she was now out in the desert. Well I picked her up from out in the desert, drove her to Van Nuys to be loaded on the plane going north, and by now she is finally back where she started, 3 long years ago. All I can say is thank god someone finally realized this little girl was alive, because without this chance there would have been none and she would have spent the rest of her life kenneled and waiting. How sad.
