Tink, Magic and Raisin were rescued from the Escambia
County animal shelter, when I worked there.
Tink came to the shelter when she was about 6-8wks old.She was found
roaming the streets. Today Dec 26, 2002 I am sad to say that I had to have
Tink put to sleep due to a ruptured disk in her spine. I will miss her very
much, but am thankful for all the time I had with her.
Magic was dropped off by her owner because she was aggressive. She
was scared to death, acted like she had been beaten. She seemed more aggressive
towards anyone in a military type uniform. She is a great watch dog. When
I moved from Florida to TN, recently, to stay with my friend Kathy, Magic
became very comfortable there and got along with all my friends dogs. I then
had to move to Texas to take care of my Grandmother and could not bring Magic
then since I was going to be staying in an apartment. Besides being to small
space for her, Magic is also deathly afraid of thunder storms and since I
work all day and Kathy has someone at her home all the time, it was best
for her to stay there. I am in constant contact with Kathy and for some time
Magic wasn't doing good. When it came time for me to go pick up Magic and
bring her down, she still wasn't doing good and for me to move a now 11 year
old dog into just another environment wasn't fair. I asked Kathy if they
would mind keeping her since she had settled in great and loved to play with
her grandsons. Kathy told me they would love to and actually hoped I would
ask. Kathy told me the other day that Magic is doing better and is having
a great time. I love her very much and I miss her, but her happiness is more
important. She started out this life in a bad situation and she deserves
a happy rest of life.
I rescued Tommy from a Vets office that I worked at. He came in after
a cat fight and his owner decided he wasn't worth the money it cost to repair
his wounds and have him neutered. We are sad to say that we had have Tommy
put to sleep due to major renal failure. He is missed.
Raisin was a feral kitten caught in a trap. I spent many hours trying
to catch her in the cat room, when she would escape from her kennel while
we were cleaning. She is now a very loving cat sometimes to loving at bed
time..VBG
Newbe & Dosher I adopted both dogs from the Escambia Animal Shleter
when I worked there. Both had been found running loose on seperate days.
I adopted Dosher first then weeks later Newbe came in and I adopted her.
The two got along great together and with Tink, my rescued JRT. Both were
great dog. I had to have them both put to sleep when they escaped out of
my yard and killed some rabbits that where in a hutch in someones yard. In
the state of Florida once an animal has killed they are deemed dangerous
and have to be contained. I didn't feel they truely deserved to be contained
so I had them humanely put to sleep instead.
Mandy was given to me by a breeder that instead of names he gave his
dogs numbers. A friend of mine named her Mandy. Mandy was a great dog and
loved to chase thunder.
Maude I got as a retired greyhound who was going to be put to sleep
after breaking a leg on the track. Maude was a very sweet dog and loved to
be loved by everyone.
Susan found Buster running loose on a major highway. He was dodging
cars and was scared to death. We guessed he was about 9 months old. We contacted
Am Staff resuce, put up signs, called Animal Shelters and called all the
Vets in the area. After 6 months of him living in a kennel run in our garage,
we decided it was no longer fair to him. We had to make the ultimate decission.
It was sad for this sweet boy. No one would help us, help him.
I have rescued many dogs and have found great homes for them. I feel more
people should adopt these thrown away pets. A pet is for life, not just till
it is no longer a puppy. They didn't ask to be born, the least we can do
is give them a happy safe rest of their life...
