People baffle me



As a general rule, I don’t want to hear about how the dogs arrived at the shelter. But when I walked in today I didn’t have a choice. One of the shelter employees saw me playing with a puppy in her cage and told me the story. Evidently an overwhelmed mother holding several babies at the park was kicking her puppy. A park-goer witnessed the abuse and took the dog away. This guy is my hero. Anyway, the puppy didn’t seem overtly traumatized by the abuse. He was a normal, playful, lovable dog. I’m sure his stay here will be a brief one. As opposed to the mothers stay in hell, which will be for all of eternity.

  1. Sounds like a sign that you should take this little (big?) guy home.
