we rescued bailey 14 months ago and it was the best decision we could have made. when i hear of someone that just bought a dog, i think of all the dogs that will live their final days in the cold surroundings of a shelter. never knowing love, never having a family. it just breaks my heart. shelter dogs are just as good, if not better, than the puppy mills dogs you are likely to find at the pet stores. if you are thinking of adding a dog to your family, please consider adopting a homeless pet; you will literally be saving a life.
What a sweet post! Just like Bailey, I'm also a rescue dog. On top of that, I had huge health issues and had to get major surgery. So, in my case, I'm alive because I was rescued and because my vet has a very big heart. Now I've finally found my furever home and I'm a very lucky little dog :)
ReplyDeleteMy poor Bailey had health issues too that we didn't even know about until we had her spayed. Doc said her ovaries AND uterus were diseased. If we hadn't spayed her, she would have died.
DeleteI'm so glad you've found a home and a family that will love you through thick and thin. You are a very lucky doggie.
Thanks for the follow. I am looking forward to reading about your bicontinental adventures!
Wags,
