• About three years ago I joined a rescue group. What started out as holding a leash for a couple of hours on Sundays turned into a whole new way of life for my family.

      There have been many changes in my life over the past year, all of them for the better. One thing I did lose, though, was my rescue group.

      I thought I had found a new rescue where I felt like I belonged. Unfortunately they didn't turn out to be what I thought they were. I'm walking away from dog rescue. I just can't do it any more. I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle and it hurts.

      I've just started volunteering with rabbits. I can't walk away from animals all together, I feel like I have to do something. This way I can give myself a much needed break from the politics of rescue but still make a difference.

      At first this blog was strictly about rescue. Then it became about my personal life. Now, finally, it's a little bit of both.

  • Pet Fiesta!!!

    This is Theodore. He’s gonna be my buddy all day tomorrow at the Pet Fiesta! Is he not the cutest thing?

    Last year I was there as a vendor for the pet care business. This year I’m going as a volunteer, which suits me much better. I wish I could be handling a Pit Bull but the rescue doesn’t have any that wouldn’t be stressed by the hoards of other dogs that will be there. I can’t even bring my own dog because Jezzy would lose her mind. Still, I think Theodore and I will hit it off quite well. I even get to pick him up and take him back to the shelter which means he’ll have an enjoyable car ride, not a miserable ride in a van packed in a crate.

    The only down side to the Fiesta is that it starts at 10 and I have to be up and out the door by 9. On a Saturday. Blerg. It’ll be well worth it though.
