I'VE OWNED A DOG OR MANY DOGS MOST OF MY LIFE. BUT THE MISSION THAT PROVED THIS WAS WHEN I MET MY HUSBAND WHO HAD A PUG NAMED PUNKY AND A GERMAN SHEPARD NAMED MAXWELL.
WHEN WE MOVED INTO THE HOUSE THAT WERE IN NOW, A FEMALE CUR/ PITBULL MIX SHOWED UP OUT OF THE BLUE..
SHE CAME TO US. WE REALIZED SHE WAS BEING USED AS A BAIT DOG FOR PEOPLE THAT WOULD USE HER TO TRAIN OTHER PITBULLS TO FIGHT,
~~~~LOOK AT HER REAR LEG WITH THE SCAR AROUND IT. ~~
SHE STAYED WITH US AND WOULDN'T LEAVE. SHE KNEW SHE WAS SAFE WITH US. GOD SENT HER TO US. WE FED HER AND IT TOOK A MONTH BEFORE I COULD PET HER AND SHE STARTED TO TRUST ME.
IT WAS AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE. WE NAMED HER TRAMPOLINA BECAUSE OF HER BEING A FEMALE AND SHE BOUNCED WHEN SHE WALKED BECAUSE OF HER BAD LEG.
WE HAD OUR PACK OF GERMAN SHEPARDS AND WE COULDN'T LET HER IN THE HOUSE WITH THE PUGS OR OUR GERMAN SHEPARD AS WE DIDN'T KNOW IF SHE WOULD ATTACK THEM. SO, SHE STAYED UNDER MY HUSBANDS TRUCK UNTIL WE COUD FIND A HOME FOR HER.
WE FOUND A WOMAN SOPHIE WHO HELPED FIND HOMES FOR STRAYS SUCH AS HER AND SHE FOUND A MAN THAT HAD JUST LOST HIS WIFE AND HIS DOG AND SHE ENDED UP LIVING A GOOD LIFE WITH HIM. HE WAS A SNOWBIRD WHO WOULD COME DOWN DURING THE WINTER AND I GOT TO MEET HIM ONCE WITH HER. SHE WAS SO HAPPY. WE KEPT IN TOUCH WITH SOPHIE WHO WAS THE ONE THAT FOUND HER A HOME AND SHE LET US KNOW HOW SHE WAS DOING EACH YEAR. WE FINALLY FOUND OUT THAT THE MAN HAD GONE INTO HOSPICE AND WANTED HER WITH HIM AND SHE WAS ABLE TO BE WITH HIM WHEN HE PASSED. AND SHE PASSED AWAY SHORTLY AFTER THAT AS SHE WOULDNT' EAT OR ANYTHING.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THIS IS A PUG THAT WE ACQUIRED. BACK IN 2007. WE HAD A FEMALE PUG ( WHO WE NAMED ROSEBUD) THAT CAME TO US ONE DAY AND SHE WAS DRAGGING HER CHAIN THAT SHE WAS CHAINED ON AND SHE CAME TO OUR SPECIFIC HOUSE. SHE WAS COVERED IN FLEAS AND SORES ALL OVER HER. AT THIS TIME, WE HAD FOUR OF OUR OWN PUGS!
NOW WE'VE NEVER WALKED OUR PUGS TWO STREETS DOWN, WE'VE ONLY WALKED THEM DOWN OUR STREET AND SOMETIMES IN THE FIELD ACROSS THE STREET. BUT THIS PUG CAME FROM 2 STREETS OVER AND WAS OWNED BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KEPT HER CHAINED UP OUTSIDE WITH NO WATER. HER OWNERS CAME BY LOOKING FOR HER. WE HAD BROUGHT HER TO OUR VET TO BE CHECKED OUT AND LEFT HER THERE, TO SEE IF ANYONE WOULD CLAIM HER. WE TOLD THE OWNER THAT AND HE WENT TO THE VET AND PAID THE BILL AND PICKED HER UP.
A FEW MONTHS LATER SHE RETURNED AGAIN DRAGGING HER CHAIN AGAIN AND COVERED IN FLEAS. THIS TIME WHEN THE OWNER CAME LOOKING FOR HER, MY HUSBAND GAVE HIM THE PUG AND TOLD HIM THAT HE WAS WRONG FOR THE WAY THAT HE WAS TREATING HER AND THAT HE BETTER START TAKING CARE OF HER.
WELL, SHE SHOWED UP AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER BUT THIS TIME SHE WENT TO THE STREET BETWEEN US AND TO THE HOUSE WHERE SOMEONE KNEW US AND TOLD US THAT SHE WAS THERE. SHE MUST HAVE GOTTEN CONFUSED AND WENT TO THE WRONG HOUSE, BUT EXACTLY ACROSS FROM WHERE WE LIVE. THIS TIME WE KEPT HER AND TOOK CARE OF HER. WE WEREN'T LETTING HER GO. THEY NEVER CAME TO LOOK FOR HER. SHE LIVED A LONG LIFE WITH US AND WAS HAPPY AND CONTENT WITH FOUR OTHER PUGS.
IF THIS WASN'T PARTLY GOD WORKING MIRACLES IN OUR LIVES, THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS
. BUT IT SHOWS THAT GOD WORKS MIRACLES AND SHOWS ANIMALS WHERE TO GO FOR HELP WHEN THEY TRULY NEED IT.
YES, MAYBE SHE SENSED OR KNEW THAT WE HAD PUGS, BUT FROM 2 STREETS OVER, AND WE'VE NEVER HAD OUR PUGS THAT FAR FROM THE HOUSE... HOW DID SHE KNOW TO COME TO OUR HOUSE?
HER AND ZOEY HIT IT OFF AND SHE WAS LIKE A MOTHER TO ZOEY. WE FIGURED SHE WAS ABOUT 5-6 YRS OLD OR OLDER. THEY GOT ALONG GREAT UNTIL LATER AND THEY NEEDED TO BE SEPERATED BECAUSE ZOEY WAS AGGRAVATING HER AND WE LATER FOUND OUT THAT SHE HAD JAW CANCER. WE KEPT HER LOVED, AND COMFORTABLE UNTIL IT WAS TIME TO LET HER GO AND I TOOK HER TO GO TO THE RAINBOW BRIDGE.
