Earlier in the week I was contacted by Michele to see if I was available to arrange a transport to a Phoenix area rescue of 6 dogs that had been taken from a hoarding situation in Santa Clarita area. I made some calls and it was a set up for them to meet Glen in Baldwin Park to transport these guys to Phoenix in his truck that we have so often used in the past. I met Michele in Simi Valley and we loaded up the van; sadness, but also happiness clouded the event. Saying goodbye is always hard on the people, the dogs wondering what was coming next. As you can see from the pics all the dogs are highly adoptable and should have no problem finding forever home there. I know that the rescue they went to works very hard on adoptions and their success rate is very high. Each of us are but a link in a chain that leads to that fur ever home.

A lady was driving in Santa Paula, following a van, when it pulled over and threw Lilly out the side door on to the shoulder of the road. Just like that. The woman stopped, the van kept going, and she found Lilly, lying there, in shock, a little cut up, but she seems to have survived her ordeal. The lady took Lilly to a vet to be examined and found no serious trauma from her ordeal. She called Mindy and asked her if she could take her in as the lady had no room at her place for Lilly. Of course Mindy says yes and that’s how Lilly wound up at Mindy’s. Mindy contacted me to see if I could place her at one of the rescues we deal with and I said I would try. Well Pam at Pam’s Second Chance Rescue says yes and that’s how Lilly started the second leg of her journey. She is now on her way to Phoenix and we all hope that she will find a furever home there that will give her what the first never did; that’s a lot of love. I know she will.
