  I rescued a human today

 

picture   

Her eyes met mine as she walked down the corridor peering apprehensively into the kennels. I felt her need instantly and knew I had to help her. I wagged my tail, not too exuberantly, so she wouldn't be afraid.

As she stopped at my kennel I blocked her view from a little accident I had in the back of my cage. I didn't want her to know that I hadn't been walked today. Sometimes the shelter keepers get too busy and I didn't want her to think poorly of them.

As she read my kennel card I hoped that she wouldn't feel sad about my past. I only have the future to look forward to and want to make a difference in someone's life.

She got down on her knees and made little kissy sounds at me. I shoved my shoulder and side of my head up against the bars to comfort her. Gentle fingertips caressed my neck; she was desperate for companionship.

A tear fell down her cheek and I raised my paw to assure her that all would be well. Soon my kennel door opened and her smile was so bright that I instantly jumped into her arms. I would promise to keep her safe. I would promise to always be by her side. I would promise to do everything I could to see that radiant smile and sparkle in her eyes.

I was so fortunate that she came down my corridor. So many more are out there who haven't walked the corridors. So many more to be saved. At least I could save one.

Giving a Voice to Ontario's Wildlife --www.wildlifeontario.ca

Message from the Ontario Wildlife Coalition

Thousands of orphaned baby wild animals are left to die each year because of inhumane government regulations that have caused the loss of wildlife rehabilitation services in Ontario.
Please go to www.helpbabywildlife.ca  and send the sign-on letter to let politicians know, in the upcoming election, that this is not the kind of Ontario you wish to live in.
You can help further by asking friends who share your concern to visit this site and submit the letter.  Finally, don’t forget to raise the issue with the political candidates in your riding when they call on you for support. 
A minute of your time will make the world of difference to many small and innocent lives. 
Thank you to those who have already responded.

RIP October 2007

NIKKI: This exquisite Miniature Poodle, I am proud to say, lived very happily with us & enthusiastically announced the arrival of customers to our business on a daily basis. He will be dearly missed by one and all. Nikki had his photo in Modern Dog Magazine in Fall 2007.

Dixey

Dixey

This dog was adopted 8 years ago by our Customer Service Clerk, Victoria.  It is truly
a rags to riches story. Pictured is Dixey this summer at her cottage where she protects her mistress from those awful snakes and saucy squirrels. 
Truly a portrait of a well loved and happy pet. 
TLC presents Pooka

Pooka -UPDATE

Pooka  has joined our pet family after the sad passing of his original owner in 2009. He can now be seen on our Mascots page
Adopted 2 years ago by a customer of TLC and he has become a regular visitor, often greeting our customers from his red cushion inside the shop's
Show Case Display!

Sadly, Pooka lost his lovely lady (2009) & TLC lost a good friend.

Sweetie Rescue

Sweetie

I thought you might like to get some news about a little dog that I adopted from you (pet rescue).
I hope that you will remember this little sweatheart. Her name is Sweetie, she is a little black poodle. I took her home in March 2005. Mom and I just love her to pieces, she does live up to her name. She is funny and so very loving. Her hobbies are chasing the sqirrells and stealing the peanuts I put out for them, trying to get our big ol cat to play with her, and sitting at the table with us. She has her own chair.I just wanted you to know how very happy we are with her and as far as I can see, she is very happy with us. I am sending a photo of her.

Thank for trusting me to take care of her. GP
