This morning I was in L.A. bright and early to pick up this little owner surrender named Sonny from his foster mom. Sonny had been with this lady for two weeks and as you can imagine, it was all tears when it was time to go. How anyone could let this little guy go is beyond me and I swear the dog knew he was going away for the last time. Hurt feelings all around. The little pittie pup I pulled for a rescue that already has an adopter waiting for this little guy. As any pb knows he is very lucky to be out and on his way. So many good dogs are dying and we just can’t keep up with it. I like Riverside’s new ordinance on mandatory spay-neuter on pitties; should be on all dogs. Maybe that will be next. I hope so.

No, I didn’t transport this mare, but I did pull her from a shelter that had too many and no one wanted her. To skinny, too old, and too whatever. The usual story we hear in rescue. So when I was contacted about pulling her, I said fine, where is she going, she sure won’t fit in my back yard. We found a great rescue person to place her with, where she will get all the proper vet care and maintenance that she is so lacking at the moment. She may not have a lot of years left, but I can guarantee they will be better than what’s gone before.
