My feelings/mood right....well not very nice words that is, No Vulgarity on this site!
So here it goes..
Last night Anthony and I were heading in town to Staples. We were nearing the end of our road and there was a white truck stopped and a momma boxer and 2 pups were on the road. When the guy saw us he took off. Our road turns onto a St. Rt. so ofcourse I had to stop and see if they had any collars on or anything. They did not so we drove over the the campground that butts up to our road and checked the gas station-NO ONE! So we took her home and gave her some food and water and the puppies too. They ate it up and by then it was getting late so I put the puppies in a cage and let the Momma ("Sassy") run loose, she was getting along with our dogs so no biggie. Got up at 4:30 a.m. to check on them...fed again then made her lay down so they could nurse off of her. Then I layed back down and got up to get ready for work. I thought about it and decided I would take them to the shelter for the dropoff. So I leave 20 minutes earlier than usual, get there and the cages that used to be outside are secured behind locked doors saying "DROP-OFF HOURS 10:00-7" So then I hurried home to drop them back off and try to make it to work all in 25 minutes.
So back to me driving them to the shelter: I had them behind my backseat in the cargo area. Sassy layed down and let them nurse but then climbed into the back seat to sleep. At that moment I pretty much lost it! How can someone drop such a poor, defenseless animal off in the middle of no where with 2 babies? How CRUEL! Heartless! She is a total sweet heart.. after being treated so wrong, she is so nice. She is all bones and I really want to put some weight on her and find the proper home for her and her puppies. We already have 3 dogs so we really cannot afford to take in any more. It all makes me so sad...Of any of them I want the Mom to go to a good home which she extremly deserves. The puppies shouldn't have a problem..everyone wants puppies. Maybe I will keep them for the weekend and see what we can do. I guess my emotions are mixed up right now. I don't know how anyone can do such a thing when all dogs do is look at us and are just always trying to please us...it just isn't fair. The other thing that really upsets me is the fact that we have always adopted animals from the shelter in order to drop the count there and give the dogs a chance and now we are obligated to take more in...UUGGH
sorry this has just been a way of venting...
if anyone knows of anyone that would like to take in these wonderful animals please let me know.
