oh, we picked up mojo (on the couch) at a local gas station. Apparently, he gets out of yard alot and goes there for hotdogs. They didn't have anything to tie him up with, but as of right now the owner hasn't tried to contact us.

Mojo will be going to a friends house, since we already have three dogs. But he will not be left wanting anything.

Every dog i ever had has been a rescue. Too many good dogs need homes. And they love you for taking care of them.

I helped at a horse rescue for a while, and then found a filly out in the country that needed saving. She got the better part of me by the time I got her home. 5 busted ribs and and a lot of groundwork she turned out to be a good horse.

It's good to see such humanitarians as you/us, that don't ignore those that are abused or can't fend for themselves
. I have a friend (no, really I do ), his father is an animal lover. He currently feeds 60 cats and dogs in 3 counties that the owners can't afford to but love their pets. He also has 2 retirement checks and social security coming in every month.

My wife and I were volunteers for the Sun Coast Sea Bird Sanctuary on the Gulf coast. We had a large pet carrier, salves and other supplies to treat birds that had been caught up in fishing line/hooks/sinkers, etc. If the birds were injured beyond what we could handle, we'd take them to the sanctuary. Treated hundreds over the five year period.
Patients were Pelicans ( 95% ), Sea Gulls and Cormorants ( MEAN suckers ). Most enjoyable relationship.

The stray dog we rescued from a Boy Scout camp, before the Ranger shot her, has been a great addition to the family. She is very grateful - I have no idea what kind of life she lived before she was dumped at the camp - but she is very appreciative!
Strangest thing is her behavior - she acts more like a cat than a dog! |

both of our dogs and all 3 cats are rescues.
Max, our golden ret/lab mix is very good. he is normally friendly but when someone has ill intentions he is ready to protect. not to mention how the wife trained him, he can even turn lights on and off on command. |
