I'm absolutely happy right now! A friend of mine had an appointment to drop his dog off at the shelter today. (I found this out last night..) They've had her for over a year, and she got a lot bigger than the vet expected (the vet said 20lbs..Paisley ended up being 42!) Anyway, they couldn't take care of her anymore because they live in an apartment...she's part beagle and has LOTS of energy.
Anyway, their hearts were broken and couldn't find anyone to take her into their home. My heart was broken because I'm SO against animal shelters...I'd be devastated if I was forced to do that. So I got to work...
And I found Paisley a home! A friend of mine is moving into a house this weekend with a big yard, and they were going to look for a dog. I relayed all sorts of info back and forth, and it's all set up!! So Paisley doesn't have to be put into a shelter!!!
Oooooh I have warm fuzzies and I'm SO happy that I was able to save a sweet girl from having to be put into a shelter and go into a stranger's home...or worse---end up euthanized!!
