WHAT AN EMOTIONAL DAY AT THE SHELTER!

[ThreeBoysChicks]

Great story and very happy ending!!!!

Glad to hear a good shelter stories! Where I live, the shelter is not good. They make it so hard to adopt that we have given up trying. Yet they put down dogs every day. We have 5. One is a rescued Saint Bernard mix and one is a rescued Black Lab. The others are Golden Retriever and Chocolate Lab and our old lady Jack Russell. Since getting our rescues, my wife and I have pretty much comitted to never getting another dog that isn't a rescue.

It is sad that people give up their dogs because they are puppies that get big and the people did not know what they were getting in to. Their loss, we got some great dogs.

Thanks for your hard work and determination!

Awesome isn't it? the other dog I rescued that day was severely matted and had mats the size of a saucer on his body. We shaved him down and then a groomer came in and gave him a beautiful groom and her got adopted in a couple of days! Way cool!

What a wonderful story! My latest addition, before chickens, is my elderly Pomeranian girl. I got her from an animal shelter and I always say it's the best $5 I've EVER spent! It will be 2 years in May that we've had her so that puts her in the 12 - 14 year age range. I hope she lives to be 20, at the very least!

Here she is, and it's painfully obvious that no one here loves her, especially not my youngest DS.

OH MY GOSH! I' m particularly partial to older Poms!!! CUTE!

Thanks, she is a gem! She acts like she's a puppy with her playfulness and spunk, and she is very sweet girl. We all just love her to pieces.
