Can you adopt or foster Valentino? He’s in a shelter in Glen Rose, TX, and he’s been there for several weeks. He almost went into a foster home, but another dog in that foster home was heartworm positive, and they didn’t want him exposed.

He’s fully grown, but young – under two years old – and gets along well with other dogs, and people.

Sadly, he’s also on the euthanasia list for this week – it’s urgent we find him a place to stay, even if it’s only temporary.

Please contact LIZ at (214) 616-6128 if you can help, or know someone who can.

Lucy is a loving bully breed girl who is in serious trouble in a rural shelter in Texas. Because she is so sweet, the shelter has kept her for a very long time, hoping against hope that someone would adopt her and give her the forever home that she so desperately needs…..and deserves. But she has had no luck in this small rural shelter and now her time is up.

Can anyone help Lucy? Please take a minute and watch her video and if you can give Lucy a true forever home, where she will be loved and cherished, please text or call Liz at 214 616-6128. Time is of the essence.

I used to be able to pass for sane. Really. And then last week, Fuzzy texted me from the pet store while I was shopping for my mother’s birthday present at the fabric store next door:
“Come here,” he wrote.
“Why?” I asked, “Is it adoption day at Petsmart?”

It was.
Now, understand that we visit the pet store every couple of weeks to buy dog food for Zorro and Cleo, and stock up on bully sticks and see if there are any cool toys we just have to have. Often, we also look at the dogs that are up for adoption, since Petsmart lets local rescues bring in their animals.

Most of the time, several rounds of the chant “We have two already” do the trick.

But then there was Maximus. He’s being referred to as a Boston Terrier, though he really isn’t one, entirely, which means when he’s grown he’ll be roughly Cleo-sized. He’s male, which is good, because Cleo won’t mesh with another female, but Zorro’s indifferent, and he’s only a puppy, so pretty malleable.

We didn’t take him immediately, of course. He’s a puppy after all, and (see above) we have two already. We actually filled out a fostering form, but I was obsessing about the puppy. It felt right. I didn’t even know his name was Maximus until after we’d been approved to take him, three days later.

In the meantime, there’s Blue, who is currently on death row at another shelter, that Shelter 2 Rescue works with. We weren’t expecting to foster quite so soon, but he’s out of time, and so cute – he’s a blue heeler mix – that we had to get him out.

So on Sunday our menagerie grows by two.

Well, it’s never boring at our house.
