“Welly come! Welly … Weeeeelly!” Our screams were futile, too easily drowned-out by the ocean’s roar. We weren’t sure, but it appeared our dog was succumbing to the relentless walls of crushing water. Our champion swimmer doesn’t flounder like this, could it be he was actually drowning before our eyes? Veins popping with the rush of adrenaline, we concluded he must be saved; but in the end, I wonder exactly who saved whom.
You know the phrase “love at first sight”? We do! Many people have suggested over the last several years that my husband and I should get a doggie. I have epilepsy and do volunteer work out of my home, so the idea of getting a doggie has always been in the back of our minds. My husband, Josh, and I both had dogs growing up.My older brother and sister-in-law (they have 3 dogs and a cat!) came here from Washington for Christmas. At one point, they told us that they almost adopted a dog for us from petfinder.com, and were going to give her to us for Christmas. They thought twice and figured it would be better to check with us first. They really poured the idea on us pretty heavily. Finally my brother said they should back off… No Pressure!!!
I truly believe my Thor is not quite “working with a full deck” and I have to wonder if he has ANY survival instincts at all!
Incident #1:
Lulu has always been my closest and constant companion these past five years. In fact, he is very obedient to me especially when I take care of other furry friends in our shelter.
As you already know, there have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forest are badly damaged by fire each year.
