Have you ever rescued from a shelter, pound, or rescue group?

This type of story makes my eyes well up with tears!! God love you for taking in Spot.

Me too! A mixture of sad and happy tears.

All of these stories are so touching. Thanks for sharing them. My two didn't come from a shelter but from couple who were moving and because of the travelling they were doing thought it best that they go to another home. I got them at the "nth" hour....the night before they moved. As of then, they had no home so I don't know what would have happened to them if I had not seen their ad a couple of days before. When I retire, I will be getting an adult dog from a shelter and maybe a kitty or two.
