But we are again busting at the seams. Owners that no longer want their pets demand that we take them, even if we must put the poor animal to sleep. We are told that if we don t make room, they will dump the animal. When our kennel was under a veterinarian quarantine for seven days, you would have thought that we were the worst people in the world, as we would not take someone s animal. The staff, as hard as they tried to make the public understand, the more abuse they took.
Nothing seems to change.
The spirit of Christmas was sure short-lived at the shelter. We have so many wonderful canines and felines. They all need homes homes for their lifetime, not for just a few months until the newness has worn off. They need a home where they can give love and receive love in return. Only four of every 50 dogs born will find homes that last their lifetimes, from puppyhood to old age.
