A Pitbull Christmas Prayer 🙏🏻 🐾🎄

Twas the night before Christmas and the shelter is dark,
The whole place is silent, not even a bark.

The dogs are all locked in their pens for the night,
The staff has gone home and turned out the light.

As I lay my head on the cold concrete floor,
I fondly recall the home I had before.

The family I loved who loved me right back,
We'd share everything from a secret to snack.

Things couldn't be better at this time last year, But that has all changed and now I am here.

I won't see the tree, the lights or the snow,
I'm scared and alone, my spirits are low.

The others like me weren't put up for adoption, A new family and home, for us aren't an option.

We've been locked up in cells as if we're all crooks,
We don't deserve homes because of our looks.

Not Diesel, or Bingo or the young one named Percy, Deserve to be loved nor shown any mercy.

While families celebrate holiday cheer,
I know in my heart that my end is near.

The vet will arrive, the lights will go on,
By the time you awake, we all will be gone.

A stranger will come and take me away,
I'll never awake to see another day.

As I close my eyes I'll shed you a tear,
The fond memories I'll always keep near.

The only thing I've ever asked of Santa Claus,
Is to stop all these unfair, ridiculous laws.

You said without me, your life was not full,
So why does it matter that I'm a "pitbull"?

The agency recommended that the maker of Librela update its label to reflect the possibility of more serious adverse reactions.

As the holiday season approaches, it is essential to remember that dogs and cats are living beings, not mere objects, and thus do not make suitable gifts. They require a substantial commitment of time, resources, and energy. Unfortunately, many animals given as gifts ultimately end up in shelters rather than in warm and loving homes.

If you want to give during this season, consider being a foster for the many rescues that are bursting at the seams. Fostering one animal helps them learn how to be in a family and helps the dogs and cats hoping to get adopted stand a better chance.

I just want to post that my boy Luke, who has had chronic clostridium bacteria blooms for a year , many vets, many meds, even at home f***l transplants , has been officially off of Tylosin, or any antibiotics for 45 days now with no symptoms ! That means he is now adoptable !!!!!! I’ve prayed over this dog’s food even and it looks like my prayers were answered . I want to thank Dr. Kaitlyn Watts at animal hospital for going above and beyond , even emailing me, what to try to get that boy well!
He loves to sit in the sun in the morning ! Such a sweet, gentle boy !

I made a post recently, which I couldn’t find later , but it was a post about a generous donation that came as a business check by
Priority mail to my rescue . It literally brought me to tears because it was the largest one I had received and I’ve almost always paid for everything for the dogs we rescue out of our pocket. I was even ready to schedule the next neuter as soon as we returned from a trip . It was from Bobs pawn shop, a small town in Texas . I deposited it , waiting for the 10 days , only to get notification from the bank that the check was returned as altered and was taken out of the rescue account . I did call the business , only to find out it was a scam and they were forced to change accounts. I was equally tearful when I got that news as it would have helped so much . What I just don’t understand is why go to all of that to make a fake check , priority mail it to the rescue ? What does the person who does this get out of it ? Do they get money somehow ? It was crushing to find out that that was even a thing and why even do that . They didn’t ask me for anything or any money so what was the purpose of that scam other than cause that poor guy’s business trouble ??????

I was happy to find today that I actually did receive some donations to our chewys rescue account that I didn’t even know about while all of my eye problems were going on . Those , I at least know are real ! So to anyone that donated to chewys on my rescue’s behalf - Thank you ! Every little bit helps!

Dogs are not Christmas presents … 50% of shelter dogs are full blooded, and they get euthanized just the same. Be part of the solution, not the problem! Spay and neuter , do not support backyard breeders , be a foster or there are many other ways to help rescues, social media, photography to help get animals adopted, help writing biographies…a hundred ways that requires a little time or a little donation .

Pound Pitties Dog Rescue said it best with this post and we couldn’t agree more.

When we started this rescue, our mission was to help the abused, neglected and discarded dogs in our city and beyond.

Our mission has never been to relieve you of you of the commitment YOU made to your dog when you took them in.

People have babies and keep their dogs.

People change careers and keep their dogs.

Peoples schedules get hectic and they keep their dogs.

People move and find a way to keep their dog.

People run into issues with manageable/trainable behavior AND THEY KEEP THEIR DOGS.

These situations are not unique.

We didn't start this rescue to bail you out. I'm sorry, I know that may sound harsh-- and yes, we know that there are absolutely situations in which people can truly no longer care for their dog- and we help with those as much as we can.

But for the love of Dog-- step up for your dog. Show up for your dog. Show your dog the same love and commitment today that you showed them the day you brought them home.

Dogs are being euthanized here, in shelters every single day because the shelter does not have space. FRIENDLY. HEALTHY. HAPPY. ADOPTABLE. DOGS.

Your dog is no different than any of the dogs that have been losing their lives every day and if you give up on your dog-- they could be next.

Let’s keep our furry family safe.

This holiday season, let's ensure our homes are merry and safe for everyone, including our animals! While decking the halls, it's important to be mindful of holiday plants that might pose a risk to our pets. Some festive plants can be harmful if ingested by our curious companions. 🎄

⚠️ Avoid potential hazards by keeping these plants out of reach:
- Mistletoe
- Holly
- Poinsettias
- Christmas tree pine needles
- Amaryllis
- Lilies

These plants, when nibbled on by our pets, could cause discomfort, illness, or even more severe issues. In case of any accidental ingestion or concerns about your pet's health, be sure to contact the ☠️ Pet Poison Helpline at 855-764-7661 or the ASPCA Poison Control Center 888-426-4435.

Let's make this season joyous and safe for every member of our family, furry ones included! Spread the word and keep those holiday plants in safe places!
