Until you have held a tiny puppy in your arms as it kissed your face with slobbery puppy breath … and felt the love, Until you have held an injured or severely ill dog in your arms … and felt their pain Until you have looked into the eyes of a tired aging senior dog … and felt their wisdom, And until you have seen and understood the look in your dogs eyes that tell you their time on earth with you is over .... and you humanely let them go, You will never understand the life of a rescuer.

Boy, this really gets to my heart, as does the rest of your blog. Thank you for following my kittens and mama Kelly. I love all my animals but the neediest ones have a special place in my heart - and I know they do in yours too. The hearts of rescurers get broken from time to time but would we ever choose to look the other way and not offer help? Absolutely not. We do what we do out of love. Thank you for such a caring blog.
