Senior Dog Lost her Person and was just left Abandoned.
This poor thing is now waiting on death row. If someone is interested in her, please contact the woman listed below.
My papa was taken to a nursing home and passed away last Tuesday...
He loved me so much, but where will I go now?
I know I lost my good looks a long time ago,
but I still can love...
My heart is heaped full of love.
Please... I don't want to die. Not yet.
I am only 10 years young!
This girl was turned out of the house when her owner was taken to the nursing home 2 weeks ago. She had been sitting on the front porch waiting for her owner to come home all that time. The man died last Tuesday. His only living relative is a 96-year old sister, who isn't able to take care of the dog. The sister had been told a home health aide took the dog home with her, but that didn't happen. When the sister found out, she went to the house and brought the dog to the shelter. Baby is probably 10-years-old, has hardly any teeth, is spayed and housetrained. She is terrified in the shelter. She needs a safe place to spend the rest of her life. If anyone can help, please contact me. These senior ones always break my heart.

Hi Susan, I posted this. It was sent to me by a woman who does dog rescue out here. I have not heard anything as to what happened, and have been meaning to write Gloria to find out. Just have not had a moment to do so yet. I'll do that right now and see what she says. I had planned on posting the outcome on here.

Stories like this just break my heart. Before I retired I worked with older adults in the community. So many needed to go to the nursing home, but resisted because of their pets. And, too many times the pet ended up abandoned by the family (who couldn't or wouldn't make provisions for the pet) when they put their loved ones in the nursing home. I got my cat Rufus from a lady that had to go to the nursing home.

That's how I did it.. with the patch. Some people smoke for the oral satisfaction.. so gum might work better for them. That worked for my son, who has quit long ago.
No gift in the world as seeing a compassion story such as this. This is what Christmas is about. Not the gifts or even the food. It is the compassion to make a difference in someones life either it be an animal or a person.
Peggy, lol. I love your attitude!
It must have been a miracle. I had a bit of extra funds left over in my yearly donation account and so my husband and I made a donation through his work, who matches his donation.

I know.. that really bothers me and the photo's seem to be hiding the size issues. We may never know.. rumours get started here as quickly and easily as changing your socks. I am grateful, however, to know that there are alot of people in this forum…
Stopped smoking 13 months ago. Used the patch for only 3 weeks. The patch..how does that make you vomit? The gum maybe. The patch is a 10 week program and it will only work if you are determined to stop.
