Thanks for the ping NW_AZ!
Hair, Slings, you see this?
>>>Maybe we should encourage dogs to immigrate here...
They already do with the Save A Sato program.
That takes strays from 3rd world countries to keep our own pounds stocked so they don’t lose money and have to close.
Thank PETA for that.
When the child was 5 or 6 years old, DSS finally found out, and they came and took the child into the system. The "mother" lost custody, the child went to a foster home, and the mama dog, who cared for her one "puppy" so devotedly and for so much longer than is normal for a dog to care for young, responded to their separation by refusing to eat, eventually dying of grief and starvation.
As the child was rescued at such a young age, he may have made a greater recovery than have other "feral" children-IOW, he may still have had the capacity to learn to speak, and to respond emotionally to humans, etc. But why couldn't they have found some way to rescue him AND his devoted dog-mama?
So, the little pooch was cruisin' the neighborhood and got punished with puppies, eh?
Beautifully put ...
Dog protected abandoned newborn, doctors say
And now for this important DOGGIEPING Announcement!
I've lost my list! I did a deep clean of my computer and I guess inadvertently deleted the folder I kept the ping list in.
If you were previously on my ping list and would still like to be on the list now, please let me know... I am re-building the list from scratch!
Oh, thanks! (And yes, I’ll get on the list again, please! I’m reconstructing mine too!)
Sorry this was posted. FR is ridiculously hard to find same-items on. I tried all “dog” items this morning. And why is “obama” and “democrats” on the keyword list?
Uh, it’s a SHE (not all dogs are males, you know).
As for the “God” thing - only in English.
An ANIMAL has more compassion for a baby than the HUMAN mother ... .
Thanks for the PING! This is such a heartwarmer and I’m puddling up a little reading it.
Can’t remember where I read this, but a child was asked why s/he thought people lived longer than dogs. The child’s answer was that people have to live a long time to learn how to love; dogs don’t need very long to learn that.
Hmmm a dog that’s more humane than Obama....he would have let it die. Why am I not surprised by this?
This story really needs to be worked into a McCain ad.
Please put me back on your list!
