I RESCUED A HUMAN TODAY

HER EYES MET MINE AS SHE WALKED DOWN THE CORRIDOR PEERING APPREHENSIVELY INTO THE KENNELS. I FELT HER NEED INSTANTLY AND KNEW I HAD TO HELP HER. I WAGGED MY TAIL, NOT TOO EXUBERANTLY, SO SHE WOULDN'T BE AFRAID. AS SHE STOPPED AT MY KENNEL I BLOCKED HER VIEW FROM THE LITTLE ACCIDENT I HAD IN THE BACK OF MY CAGE. I DIDN'T WANT HER TO KNOW I HADN'T BEEN WALKED TODAY. SOMETIMES THE SHELTER KEEPERS GET TOO BUSY AND I DIDN'T WANT HER TO THINK POORLY OF THEM. AS SHE READ MY KENNEL CARD I HOPED THAT SHE WOULDN'T FEEL SAD ABOUT MY PAST. I ONLY HAVE THE FUTURE TO LOOK FORWARD TO AND WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE'S LIFE. SHE GOT DOWN ON HER KNEES AND MADE LITTLE KISSY SOUNDS AT ME. I SHOVED MY SHOULDER AND THE SIDE OF MY HEAD UP AGAINST THE BARS TO COMFORT HER. GENTLE FINGERS CARESSED MY NECK; SHE WAS DESPERATE FOR COMPANIONSHIP. A TEAR FELL DOWN HER CHEEK AND I RAISED MY PAW TO ASSURE HER THAT ALL WOULD BE WELL. SOON MY KENNEL DOOR OPENED AND HER SMILE WAS SO BRIGHT THAT I INSTANTLY JUMPED INTO HER ARMS. I WOULD PROMISE TO KEEP HER SAFE. I WOULD PROMISE TO ALWAYS BE BY HER SIDE. I WOULD PROMISE TO DO EVERYTHING I COULD TO SEE THAT RADIANT SMILE AND SPARKLE IN HER EYES. I WAS SO FORTUNATE THAT SHE CAME DOWN MY CORRIDOR. SO MANY MORE OUT THERE WHO HAVEN'T WALKED THE CORRIDORS. SO MANY MORE TO BE SAVED. AT LEAST I COULD SAVE ONE.

I RESCUED A HUMAN TODAY.

Meet Maggie and Annie

This is Maggie and Annie our two wonderful and very friendly dogs.

Maggie is a terrier/poodle mix. We adopted her in February, 2005. She is dark gray with white markings. She will stand up on her hind legs and dance when she sees anyone come in the shop.

Annie is a cocker spaniel/border collie mix. We adopted her in November 2005 (Maggie was a little lonely!) She is blond with white markings and freckles on her nose. She likes to bark a lot and wag her beautiful tail.

Both dogs love having people come into the shop so they can say hello and be petted, so be sure to stop in. We adopted both of them from the AWA in Voorhees, NJ.
