Animal Transport

Today I pulled these two little ones that were rescue only for a rescue. Though labeled fearful, they were only just very frightened and scared. Who wouldn’t be after just coming out of a home they have known all their lives, dumped into a cold unforgiving kennel, everyone else barking loudly, wondering what went wrong for them to be dumped into this place. Just imagine how you would feel. Dogs are no different, they have feelings too. It is so stressful on them, every change in their world adds more stress. All we can do is show kindness and love and hope time will lessen their feelings of abandonment that at times overwhelms them. Just one good person entering their lives and all will be right in their world again.

Today I pulled a pittie mix for a rescue that adopted the dog out 2 years ago. To whom I don’t know and after seeing the dog maybe its best I don’t. I don’t know if the dog changed owners in that period of time, but he is a good example of a dog that never has known a warm hand or just a pat on the head. This guy was absolutely terrified of people; cowered in the corner, would not come near you on a leash, wouldn’t make eye contact eye at all. What happened to him we may never know. I mentioned to the rescue that he acted semi-feral. I have dealt with them in the past and it won’t be an easy recovery road ahead. A lot of love and confidence-building will be needed plus a whole lot of patience. The expenditure of effort will be great, but the rewards will be greater.
