Dad and Barkley - Old Friends
My dear friend Vic posted a fun little piece about her Rhodesian Ridgeback Rescue dogs she got from Texas Independent Rhodesian Ridgeback Rescue - TIRR (she provided a photo below) called Old Friends . (click on link to open)
I just loved it and told Partner in Grime "Vic did a piece using a Simon and Garfunkel song, but now it's about dogs!"
"In the clearing stands a boxer."
Smile, take a peek at Vic's post and consider a Rescue Dog or a tax deductible donation, if you have some extra to spare with love but no room in your home for another dog at the moment. I love Abby, who I adopted through the caring hearts of Love of Labs Indiana--LOLIN.
They can't replace the dear furry members of our family we have lost, but they are a balm to the heart, and a joyous greeting when we are downtrodden. It outweighs all that we go through to make them a brief part of our lives and I don't regret making that journey again.
Awesome! A good cause for these noble creatures that sneak into your heart on four paws.
ReplyDeleteon a small rock at the front of our vet's office is this saying....
ReplyDelete"Our Pets lead us from patience to love and then to loss...
but it is always a journey worth taking."
Yep.
Like this Post.
Thank you Ms B.

I wasn't allowed furry pets as a child, but made up for it as an adult!
ReplyDeleteWe currently have three dogs and 2 cats (all rescues of one kind or another) - it's always challenging and entertaining.
And there's always someone to love you!

Thanks for the LOLIN mention. :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful! All the four legged critters in our house are rescues of one stripe or another. It can be a hard journey sometimes, but most certainly worth it.
ReplyDeleteWe have two rescue dogs. Worth every minute/penny of the time and trouble involved going through the process to get approved.
