My Life, I'll Start With My Rescue By The SPCA
I Was So Cold And Scared To Death
I had been on the run for a while when a white truck and a couple of scary people tried to catch me. I ran and they followed until I couldn't escape them. I was cold and hungry and didn't know what to expect. I was loaded into a crate with something around my mouth that I had never seen before now. They drove to a building and took me out of the cold metal crate I was in. I listened to them talking about me, saying they were going to have to put me down because i was so viscious. I wasn't sure what that meant but it didn't sound good. Suddenly a beautifull young girl with long blond hair showed up. She asked the people why is he muzzled? They replied that I was viscious and going to be destroyed. She said no way are you putting him down and she took me from them. She was my angel and took me into a room with lots of barking dogs. I was so scared but she got in the cage with me and we became best friends right away. Thank God she was there to save my life and treat me so nicely. She fed me and gave me fresh water and laid beside me for a long time talking to me. For the first time i felt loved. I thought ok this is good, i can handle this, it's warm, dry and my belly is full. I got sick and wasn't allowed to go out on walks like the other dogs. Time passed so slowly and my only joy was the blond girl spending what little time with me she could. One day 4 weeks later the big door opened and in walked 2 people who began talking to me. I wasn't at all nice to them and the man walked away but the woman stayed and kept talking to me. She asked me for a paw so i gave it to her. The man came back and I finally gave him a paw. They left for a while and I sat wondering if they would be back. Well sure enough in they came again and told me they would be back to adopt me as soon as I could be released. I thought to myself that they would never come back for me, but I was wrong. The very next week, a Thursday morning there they were with a leash. They took me out for a walk and right then we felt at ease with each other. They then filled out paper work and put me in their car and brought me for a car ride and to a new home. I was so happy, they seemed so loving and kind. They bought me a new bed just for me and put it in front of a nice warm fireplace. I had a Mommy and Daddy that loved me! I was safe, warm, not hungry and it was as though I had died and gone to heaven. That was Jan. 29th 2004, the best day of my life at that time and I had no idea how much better it would get. So that's the start of my new life. I'm a very lucky boy. So that's my first page and lots more to come, I hope.
