*Folks, I am sorry. I posted this in another thread so deleted it and another response to it (sorry Ben). If I could give myself an infraction I would. I think I have executive privilege LOL.

There have been several donations in the last day or two and I and Bill (and the doggies we save) all thank you very much. I took this rescue to a vet a few days ago and they couldn't find my rescue account (it is my personal vet too). So I paid and went back today with the account number and am getting a small discount. Every dollar for Rescues counts. Thanks again to the board for letting this be our pet project (pun intended). I want to remind everyone that every penny donated goes to Bill to put towards saving doggies. I have never taken, and wouldn't take, anything. My pay is seeing the end results.

This is our current foster rescue and is heading via large van, with approximately 40 other doggies tomorrow, to MN. He is the best dog I think I have ever had and was surrendered to a Kill shelter because the owner said he is incompatible LOL. Sweetest....dog....ever

I hope they all find good homes. Incompatible,LOL I got the same BS with my current rescue dog. We have adopted our last 3 dogs from the same shelter. After we had filled out all the paperwork and paid the fee. The lady told us Bubba had been adopted 3 times already and he was turned lose once and returned the other 2 times. I don't know about best dog I ever had but he sure is a darn good one.

Here is a pic of Bubba playing at the lake last week.

Funny story, I have no idea who the kid is or how close he lives. He runs off if he sees me or my wife. The kid is barely taller than my short chain link fence but every once in a while when Bubba is outside by himself I will see this kid come up to the fence. Then Bubba will go over to him and put his paws on the top of the fence and they hug each other.

Ben- there's a term used in my state...well, mostly in the Athens area...

Bubba appears to be a 'Damn Good Dawg!!"

looks like you're giving him an enjoyable life...thank you for that.

Thank you all for donating, rescuing, fostering, and supporting this selfless organization.

Bump.

Great cause, please take a minute and donate if you like dogs as much as I do, tis the season! It's more rewarding than another piece of cardboard I promise.

Many thanks, Jeff. The doggies appreciate it. (as well as everyone who has helped and/or put up with our forum cause.)

And closer to home here is Gigi. She was picked up at the Garland Kill Shelter....then after 3 months and a dog behaviorist failure I was told to bring her back to the Shelter labeled as dangerous....and she would be put down. So I adopted her

She is a great doggie but doesn't get along well with other doggies, especially ones she doesn't know. Here is when I picked up pictures and now pictures....The shaved spots are where the shots were given for her heartworms. She was strong positive.

Leon,

In part as a result of your efforts, my wife and I have become volunteers at a dog and cat rescue organization near our home in Falls Church, Va. Walking dogs provides us great satisfaction. I only wish I had realized this passion when I first retired (2005).

I mention this so that other members who like pets can consider volunteering in their communities, if not during your careers, then upon retirement.

You're doing God's work.

Mark

Cool to see an old pic of my dog. He is about 20 pounds lighter and has now got hip problems from old age. Still an amazing dog.
