I haven't been posting barely at all lately, I know. I miss PT. My life has been really busy... and it just got about 10x busier!

Me and my friend Grace were heading to the park with the dogs yesterday, and as we pulled up we saw a (d-bag extraordinare) man tossing a skinny puppy from his truck. When we walked over, we noticed the puppy was tied to a pole with a string, and the guy was backing out of the parking lot. He had another young Pit Bull tied up in the back of his truck, who jumped over and hung himself. The man got out, cursed at the dog and threw him back in, then sped away.

I managed to get his license plate number, and called park police. Who told me to call animal control. Who told me to call the police department. Who told me they would put out his license plate and his description but that they don't handle cases that aren't "cruel and unusual". They recommended I leave her at the shelter drop box. Which, of course, I would NEVER do, especially considering how horrible our shelter is.

So, meet my new foster puppy, Jemima! She is so sweet and eager to please despite being on the verge of starvation, she hasn't even had a single accident. She is 16 lbs of skin and bones, and she seems to be around 6-10 months old based on her teeth. She has a few scars on her head, muzzle, and tummy.... from what, I don't know. She is the best hugger EVER! Mima has yet to meet the boys, since her Vet appt is on Tuesday, but she seems very neutral about them.

This was taken with a camera phone where we found her.


Hai! Iz Jemima.


I likez this eating thing.


Nom!


Eating probably her first meal in a long time...


After her first bath in a VERY long time!
For such a little girl, she was soooo filthy. It took 10 minutes before the water wasn't brown. She was very good with all of it, though.


She loves the bed I made her. She is staying mostly in the master bathroom, until I know she's healthy.


Rub tummeh?


The sweetest doe eyes.



So... anyone in Nor Cal looking for a super sweet Pittie mix puppy? I'm thinking some kind of "Pit Bull" breed, maybe Staffordshire Bull Terrier, mixed with Beagle or some kind of Shepherd mix in there.
