Tater found a new home today. Such a big, fun, goofy boy. He sneezed on my head last week.
Buster found a new home, too, with a nice older lady and her daughter who are making it their mission to fatten this skinny senior boy up and give him all the love and attention he needs and deserves. His new name is Mose.
Tigger the brindle pit is going home as soon as his boys are removed. :) He loves to lick fingers and have his neck scratched.
This pretty girl came in this morning, so she doesn't have a home yet. Kairie is a 5-month-old Alaskan Malamute and is very much the energetic puppy who loves to sing. "Wooo-wooo-wooooo!"
And, unfortunately, these two beautiful girls were not as lucky. DeeDee (left) was the very first dog I ever worked with as a volunteer (here's my post from January 2008) and she is the one who started my love for pit bulls. She changed it all for me and I will always, always remember her and thank her for that. And Abby (right) was my introduction to a deaf dog. I'd always find her quietly sitting in her kennel, silently taking in the world around her, watching other dogs come and go. I only wish we could have done more for her. :(
Goodbye sweet girls.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred, let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light
And where there is sadness, joy.
Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love
For it is in giving that we receive
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life
-Peace Prayer of St. Francis, Patron Saint of Animals
