I really loved that dog the short time she was here and really wanted to keep her but couldn't. if I lived alone she would have been here for the rest of her life unless her owner came for her. but none of our neighbors ever saw her before. I overheard my mom talking to this old man friend of hers on the phone she was going to have him come and drop the dog off in a terrible area where the nearest house was miles away and nothing but woods and all kind of creatures like Coyotes, Foxes, even Bears and other creatures roam. I contacted the lady at the shelter and told her what I was up against she told me to bring her to the shelter. they really seem to care about the animals there and she believed she could eventually find the dog a home since she was a lap dog that showed so much effection and wanted to lick your face. so my hands were tied and I didn't have much time. maybe I should have took both her and my dog Cody and left here. the 3 of us might have been homeless together living in my car.
