Yesterday was my three months anniversary at work… I started Friday January 13th. Guess Friday 13th isn’t such a bad day after all… So much I have learned, so many fun people I have met, so many nice dogs that has been saved. Just amazing that I am experience all this!
Yesterday wasn’t a bad day for me really, but a day filled with heavy tasks and things to deal with. But once again, with all the support I get from different sources just makes it all worth! The shelter is so filled up right now so I don’t know what to do! Feel a little bit helpless but then people shows up and wants to foster and adopt to Heritage Jubilee so we can get more room at the shelter. People comes and donates things to the shelter and to the raffle. It is just unbelievable!!!
Yesterday, Terrell Daily Photo wrote an article about the adoption center. Just take a look at the great article he wrote!
I came home last night and was so exhausted. I changed dogs and even forgot a big bucket with dogfood in Japp’s and Shelby’s room. So this morning when I was going to change the dogs again and realized the dogs that came in did not understand why they didn’t get any breakfast. Well, I assumed that Japp and Shelby had eaten everything. But I was wrong! Can you believe it? Yes, they had eaten some but left 3/4 of the bucket there!!!! Just so it was enough to everybody to get some breakfast! I was so amazed that they didn’t eat it all at once. They had the whole night to eat it and they didn’t!!!! Just crazy! I am so proud!
Spent the morning in bed with Hanna. She needed some TLC and a pillow apparently… She was snoozing so deep so I really didn’t want to wake her up. When the time passed 9:30 I figured, sorry Hanna, I have to get out of bed. Even if it is my day off I want to get something out of the day. I will need to go to town and get dogfood today. In the same time I will drop by work really fast to foster out Leo, the dog with the broken leg… Don’t know if I put a picture of him here yet. He has his leg in a cast and one of my volunteers will foster him since I have so much to do right now and that will release me a lot. I also have another family who wants to come and look at Sebastian, the Saint Bernard we have there!

Sebastian
So I just keep my fingers crossed that they like Sebastian! He has been at the center for so long time and I gotten no help from any rescue group at all! He needs a new home and I think this family (who I know) would be so great for him!
Got a pretty good picture of “the sisters” Amaria and Acriz. Amaria is born 4/27/09 and Acriz 5/13/09 so it is not even a month between them. Both is by Briar. Acriz mother is Aisha, and Aisha is Amaria’s Grandmother so they are out of the same bloodlines almost and see the difference in size! I think it is so interesting! Amaria has had briddle in her mouth a second time without any problems. Dallas has had boots on all legs, and that without problems too. Both really good girls. Still looking for a cheap briddle for her but it is hard to find and I don’t have any money to spend on something like that so she just has to wait.
We will get bad weather tomorrow again. I am supposed to sing in church but if the weather is too bad I won’t get out of the door! Well, I have to get to work and clean the shelter but I don’t have to do that while the weather is really really bad… so it will be interesting to see how that develops…
