From the title I figured I would tear up a bit, and I was right. My last two dogs were shelter dogs and I hope to adopt more.
Me too. My last dog, Minky, died 2 years ago after a brief but intense illness. He was a sick rescue dog when we got him at 10wks and he lived (and thrived!) with us until he was 11. My DH didn't want another dog for a long time, but I was ready. Thankfully, he gave in, LOL. My DD20 and I went to the local kill-shelter and found this poor little half dead, starved poodle mix with dreadlocks. Two months later, he has wormed his way in to all our hearts, even my DH.
This little doggy has meant so much to me. I have depression and pretty bad arthritis. Tiki is just so loving, all he wants is to be with me. My mood is better, my arthritis is more bearable. I look forward to every day because this little fellow has such a happy outlook.
I love my rescue dogs. They are just so grateful for everything.
