I'm back to volunteering once a week at LHS and it's so awesome to have the time to help animals in need. We've got a couple of crazy dogs to work with so I'm looking forward to the challenge and hopefully we as a group can help make them better, more settled, and adoptable.
It's not something I like to mention, but unfortunately it's been a tough few weeks and two dogs I had the pleasure of meeting and working with had to be euthanized. One was a super sweet pug named Bruce that was in failing health when surrendered to LHS and unfortunately was not going to get better. The other was an elder guy, a 14 year old beagle named Homer, that suddenly went into kidney failure and the only right thing to do was to let him go peacefully. I knew this would be part of helping out, and while I shed some tears, I know that the people at LHS really love and care for every single animal that comes in to their home and they couldn't be in more wonderful and loving hands. One of the many things I've learned in school is that as much as you may like to, you really cannot save every animal.
The people I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with at LHS are absolutely amazing. I feel so fortunate to be a part of a good group of people that welcomed me with open arms and share the same thoughts and beliefs as I do when it comes to the care of animals.
We have an upcoming fundraiser next weekend that I'm really looking forward to. Life is even better when you've found your purpose.
This is Chloe and this is her badonkadonk. Currently adoptable through Lowell Humane Society. She is super sweet, loves to walk, but also loves to snuggle. Seriously, what are you waiting for? Adopt her now. Ok? Thanks.
This is Stewie. I don't know how much he likes me but I still made him take a selfie. He's only 4 months old, super bouncy, and super awesome. That is all.
Tacoma, a beautiful, gentle, awesome, smart, sweet, fantastic, awesome - did I already say awesome? dude- who I cannot believe is still in the shelter. Please come see this guy and adopt him.
Tyson, one of our newer guys who I mentioned above. He is an unbelievably beautiful dog who just needs to learn some manners, and will be ready for his forever home.
Rondo, another newer guy that I mentioned above. He is so derpy, spastic, bouncy, and excited. As soon as he learns to be more like a dog and less like a crazy person, he will find his perfect home. As you can tell by these two pictures, he even makes me derpy. :)
