Every year about this time I usually get extra indulgent with the dogs and buy them some extra toys, and pig's ears and pig's noses at the pet stores when I'm passing by them - like post pet owners dog
The dogs don't know it's Christmas - but they do know that they like all the extra good stuff that they're getting - they're like a lot of rescue dogs who've had rough lives and I like to make sure that their lives are all about sunshine and lollipops now - they get whatever they want.
I've decided though that the extra money that I'd be spending on pig's ears and cow's penises over Christmas - I figure I'd probably be spending about $50 extra to keep the dog's happy - is going to help this guy - Zowie - he's been taken in by Animal Rescue Coalitions - and he needs to have both his back knees done - 2 TPLO surgeries - and if any of you guy's have had your guy's knee's done - you know that's a ton of money.
A few year's ago Charlie had one of his knees done - but it was the old style - not TPLO - and he's been beautiful ever since (knock wood). A lot of places would have looked at Zowie and said "no - we can't take him on, it's going to be too expensive - he should just be put down" - but Animal Rescue Coalitions - is willing to do the foot work to do what it takes to make this dog healthy - he's only 16 months old - and he deserves a chance at life. Up to this point he's been chained his whole life.
Jack is also a former Animal Rescue Coaltions dog - so Jack would gladly give up at least one penis for Zowie, I'm sure!
If you feel moved to give up a few penises for Zowie - or you want to buy a couple xmas tree ornaments that are on the tree that Zowie is standing by - you can go to http://animalrescuecoaltions.com/ - Zowie will thank you!
Haha ... I'm not sure Jackie WOULD give up even one penis, but what he doesn't know won't hurt him.
ReplyDeleteWell done Joan and it is indeed a worthy cause.
