Today I picked up Luke from a shelter way out in the desert. Though he was frightened and nervous, he was not aggressive. Given that from what the shelter told me, he had been hit by a car and found alongside a road, he was actually friendly, in his own way. Although I saw no sign of any injury, he will be taken to a vet after we get him checked into boarding. There they can determine if there is anything that medically needs to be done. We already have a rescue that is willing to take him, so after his vet visit it won’t be long til he will be on his way and hopefully a new and better life awaits him.

Today I picked up Fiona from a shelter early in the morning and sad Fiona looked like she was hardly awake. She is very sweet and had been at the shelter for quite awhile before a wonderful rescue stepped up for her and asked me to go get her. How any person could give her up is beyond me as she is very quiet and just wants to be with someone. Well she will get that chance now because the rescue that she will be going to has an outstanding reputation for placing Shepherds with great families. Hang in there Fiona, your time is coming.
