That's right... we finally got a dog.
All the planets aligned and we were able to rescue a dog from the pound.
It has been a crazy pursit of heart break and broken little girl dreams...
I actually believe that some of the "rescues" are not really interested in rescuing the animals at all! I attended 4 mobile adoption events and never got any further than filling out the 4 page application and handing it in.... nobody follows up.... they must figure that it is easier to just keep the dogs and milk the public for donations than to actually find the dogs a home.
I had been turned down 3 times by the counselors at our local SPCA, that's right, animal adoption counselors... only in LA would they need some much emotional support to get rid of stray dogs.... Irony, the dog I was interested in, and met with a counselor with, is still sitting in there at the pound...WTF!?!
