Oh, I love the pictures. They are ALL absolutely precious.
I so admire what you do. :hail: You have a very special heart.

 

[Baxter'smybaby]

wow--there are alot of them!! Do you have help caring for them? I think it's admirable that you, and others who do rescue are able to take on these deserving pets!! They sure love you, huh?

You are a good hearted person to take on the job you do.

I can not get past the fact that everyone of those happy faces came through your doors a broken hearted mess. I know it well. This makes me get up beat again.

All together I have over 400 dogs at the rescue all breeds but we have two ACDs here and 17 at the shelter. And you don't know the half of it lol 1 ACD is enough for most people lol

You are their angel, you know..

 

[squirtsmom]

LOL Senior try that couch with full grown ACDs. I can not get to mine half the time lol

These are my newbies lol that old guy Oscar decided to call it a night up there on his arrival. He has stopped crying now and sadly I think accepted his fate

All I can say is that you definitely have lots of love around you. From the smile on your face, I can tell you are all meant for each other.

Thanks for all of your support guys...I'm logged in from home, hence my different screen name, but it's me, seniorpetlover...Aussie, I love those photos...I can only imagine how much more difficult it would be for me if my guys were all biggger!

There are 43 dogs here as of last count...2 labs, a bluetick, a border collie, 2 beagles, 2 cocker spaniels, 2 min pins, 2 yorkies, a terrier, a golden, and the rest are chis or chi mixes.

Everyone is very happy and they seem so grateful to be here...These guys have taught me more about love, life, and death and my life has been enriched so much that I can't really think of myself as their angel...they are the blessings and I am grateful to play a part in their lives, regardless of how short it may be. Often times, I don't know their story, but I do my best to make sure that they have a happy ending.

Sometimes I get so overwhelmed and tired of the endless amount of work that they generate, but all it takes is a lick on the nose and seeing the way that their eyes soften when they look at me and I realize that I'm doing what I should be doing...they are all piled around me as I type this and they are sleeping peacefully...I don't regret taking in a single one of them! I only regret that they wound up in need in the first place...that's the part that pains me if I let myself think about it...there are precious lives being lost everyday...these dogs are great dogs and all they needed was a little patience, a little love, and someone with a little courage to help them face whatever physical problems that they have and that's not really asking too much...I can't imagine casting a single one of them out of my life...I will be with them to the very end and then hopefully, thereafter...it is a pretty great gift to be able to stand at Heaven's Gate.
