Puppy Pictures Anyone? Photo Heavy *Cuteness Warning*

[Roxyluvsme13]

She came from a pound called the Tipton Pound in Brighton Tennessee. It's a hellhole. They kill almost every dog that gets dropped off there, and even more of the cats.

The rescue I work with has started working to try to reduce the euthanization rate at this particular shelter, and so far we're having a hard time keeping up with the irresponsible pet owners in the area who won't spay/neuter their pets, or drop them off there without a care in the world that they will end up dead in a few days.

Sorry to vent - it's just really frustrating.

Here is a link to the Tipton Petfinder site

I called yesterday to inquire about the multiple listings for lab puppies (which look purebred) on the site - only to find out we couldn't rescue them, because they had already been killed. I felt like I had been kicked in the stomach, about 12 times.

Ugh that's horrible. I have no idea where Brighton is.. *checks google* Ah, it's on the other side of TN. It sounds really horrible.. I'm glad you rescued Molly!

Thanks for the cuteness warning! The puppy pictures are adorable. Molly and Lucy are both so pretty!

-squeels- They are both too freaking precious. Of course, my heart is bouncing all around for Molly and her siblings. So sorry the rest of them didn't make it.

I wouldn't know what breed Molly might be, so I'll put her in the category of TOTAL CUTIE! I love the photo of little Lucy chewing on the Labrador retriever book. The one of her giving a high-five to her dad is absolutely precious. Very long, happy and healthy lives to you with your loving parents, Misses Lucy and Molly!

Kay, I was so upset when her littermates didn't make it. For one, we got the news of them dying 1 by 1 when Molly was in the hospital, so of course it made me fear the worst. And 2, I had kind of hoped that maybe one of them might get adopted somewhere near me, and we could do playdates together with her brother/sisters....So sad

Cassiesmom - When we first got Lucy, my fiance was on a break from school for 2 weeks....he went into like, boot camp training mode with her! She LOVED it. When he wasn't working on stuff with her she would sit there next to him until he would start with her again - she was such a fast learner, and of course it helps that she's a lab and will literally do anythinggggg for food!

I taught her some new ones recently - she now knows "clean up your toys"....she goes around and picks up her things and puts them in the toy bin....only to empty them out again, of course. and she knows "fruit loop" and "cheerio" (spins in a circle in either direction). When she can't figure out what I'm trying to get her to do sometimes, she will randomly do fruit loop and cheerio in rapid succession thinking that maybe that will get her the treat lol
