On our anniversary, several months after Jazzie died, we went looking for another little dog. We found him.
Wolfie was in terrible shape when we got him. He had been kicked around, and had two broken ribs and a tail broken in two places. He had been abandoned and was starving on the streets.
He was almost hairless, flea ridden, and an emaciated mess when he was picked up off the streets of central district. When we saw him, he had gained back some weight but still weighed only 9 pounds. His healthy weight would be 15 pounds.
In six months he was a beautiful, happy little guy.
HERE is his story, in a Thursday 13 that I posted for him in August of last year.
He's healthy and happy, and I can't imagine life without this wonderful little dog in it. And I thank all the folks who made his recovery and his second chance at a happy life possible before we took him in.
Thank You both, San Diego Animal Shelter, and the San Diego Humane Society, who collaborate to find homes for these amazing dogs and cats.
I found an interesting article on the definition of a no kill shelter HERE. It's both educational, and sad.

Glad you could help a dog. We have a local no kill shelter but they had to stop accepting cats because they don't have room for any more.
ReplyDeleteIt’s good that you have a no kill facility but sad that cats aren’t accepted there anymore. Cats are the best little companions and I’ve loved the ones we adopted.
DeleteI’m hoping to adopt two cats when we don’t travel anymore. Two small dogs and two cats sounds perfect to me. 😎
