Yes, today I did a pull and transport of 6 very lucky ones from a shelter. While I was waiting for the shelter to open, a very nice person approached me with a cardboard box, that I knew contained something. Kittens maybe, it’s that time of year and I have come to expect it. But no, it was a 3-5 day old puppy that he found by a dumpster, discarded like trash; no one caring whether he lived or died until this caring person came along. I knew if the pup was turned over to the shelter, it would be put down right away, so I said give it to me and let’s see if we can save him. I got on the phone and in no time had someone coming by to take him and get him bottle fed like now. In the meantime a lady was in line who fosters at the shelter said she would take him, I said sure (I verified this). The important thing at the moment was to get him fed and be warm. So off he went and I really hope that he will pull through then go on to a much better place than where he came from. I know he will meet better people.

Today I picked up these two from a shelter and off we went to the vets. Were they glad to be leaving. The boy, George, was a little dog aggressive and when we got there he had to be brought in first so as not to have any issues with the younger female. She, on the other hand, just wanted to be out of the shelter and movin’ on to somewhere. She was a sweetheart and will make a wonderful addition to a family. George might need a little more training and then he will be ok. It will just take time.
