I have always been an animal/dog person/lover. When I was born, my parents had a dog and I grew up with her (Mandy). She was always basically the same age as I. I can't remember a time I was ever without a pet, usually a dog (or several!).
Below are the faces of dogs I have helped save from euthanasia this week, through sharing their plight, finding donations for their rescue, finding a rescue organization to pull them from the kill shelter and many other ways. Some dogs are strays. Most dogs are taken to the shelters by their owners (and I use that term loosely) for any number of reasons: having a baby, moving, dog got old, "too much puppy", landlord said to, etc. etc.
This, these, are another passion of mine. I have plans to post a nail mail post tomorrow and hopefully that will happen. If I am needed to assist with saving a life, or arranging transport of a rescued dog, or sharing dogs on death row, then that is where you'll find me.
Sadly, animal cruelty, neglect, abandonment, death is a part of life every single day. If only I could win a multi-million dollar lottery........
Who am I trying to save now? There are tons -- but Bard needs me most right now because he needs donations for his rescue. There is a rescue group interested in him but he must have funds for his boarding, transport and other needs. If you'd like to donate to his rescue, you can visit his Chip In.
What other passions do you have?
