Wonderful news on this wonderful, Wednesday.
My girl, Lottie aka Lotte, Lotte Lala has been adopted! 🎉
I started fostering her back in September as she made her way into a home where I was dropping off my previous foster for a trial.
She was terrified skin and bones, full of fleas and scared of the world. I had told myself that I would be taking a break from fostering, but this little girl had different plans for me. Since then she has gained some weight, made some new friends and found the most perfect home. I truly believe that everything happens for a reason I was meant to come across her and her now parents were meant to find her on Petsmart as they had recently lost their dog that reminded them so much of her. She was the first dog they found and knew right away she was it. They found the dog that will make their family whole again.

A man and his dog were walking along a road. The man was enjoying the scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead.
He remembered dying, and that the dog walking beside him had been dead for years. He wondered where the road was leading them.
After a while, they came to a high, white stone wall along one side of the road. It looked like fine marble. At the top of a long hill, it was broken by a tall arch that glowed in the sunlight.
When he was standing before it he saw a magnificent gate in the arch that looked like mother-of-pearl, and the street that led to the gate looked like pure gold. He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got closer, he saw a man at a desk to one side.
When he was close enough, he called out, 'Excuse me, where are we?'
'This is Heaven, sir,' the man answered.
Would you happen to have some water?' the man asked.
Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have some ice water brought right up'.
The man gestured, and the gate began to open.
'Can my friend,' gesturing toward his dog, 'come in, too?' the traveler asked.

'I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept pets.'
The man thought a moment and then turned back toward the road and continued the way he had been going with his dog.
After another long walk, and at the top of another long hill, he came to a dirt road leading through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed. There was no fence. As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and reading a book.
'Excuse me!' he called to the man. 'Do you have any water?'
'Yeah, sure, there's a pump over there, come on in..'
'How about my friend here?' the traveler gestured to the dog.
There should be a bowl by the pump.'
They went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old-fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside it.
The traveler filled the water bowl and took a long drink himself, then he gave some to the dog.
When they were full, he and the dog walked back toward the man who was standing by the tree.
'What do you call this place?' the traveler asked.
This is Heaven,' he answered.
'Well, that's confusing,' the traveler said. 'The man down the road said that was Heaven, too.'
'Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly gates? Nope. That's hell.'
'Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like that?'
'No, we're just happy that they screen out the folks who would leave their best friends behind🤍🤍🤍

I am filled with so much joy to announce that Tanner has been adopted!! (Now Calvin) It’s been a long time coming,but I didn’t have the right words and I don’t think I ever will.

Tanner has been by far the longest FOSTER I’ve had. Within this time frame I saw how resilient,stubborn, crazy, loving,silly,attention seeker, energetic, playful young at heart he is. He had to overcome some health issues and he did it with a smile on his face.
A smile that makes you stop and stare for a while. This old man has a whole life ahead of him and he found the perfect person to go through life with. His mom is wonderful. I wouldn’t have picked anyone else for him. She is everything he needed and more. She introduced bike riding to him and he seems to enjoy it. They walk through life happy as can be.
A few words from her
“Well we’ve been pretty busy since I adopted the little guy and he has been enjoying meeting new people and dogs and having lots of adventures with me in his new city. He has his own backpack and easily learned how to ride bikes with me. He loves coming on rides to the park and downtown breweries. He’s been to Blues in the Park and yoga on the bluff a few times - lots of new cultural experiences. He’s such an affectionate and fun loving guy. I’m so grateful I met him and am having a great time getting to know my new best friend.”

Sugar Cookie came to the Walk Me Home family in July of 2020 from the south LA shelter. She was in very poor shape, her skin was severely infected and she could barely stand. Once she got some medical care and into a foster home she began to improve quickly. She loved to sunbathe and roam the backyard. She went to a potential adopter at one point, but she had gotten so comfortable with her foster home it was a difficult adjustment so she returned to her foster to live permanently. Sugar Cookie was a happy, comfortable and loved by all especially her Foster Mom and Grandma. She was a gruff, blind, one-eyed shih tzu who took advantage of her freedom as well as her space to be on the move. Making the circle around the yard and house many times a day. Although she couldn’t see, she learned her environment and made her way around like a champ. Cookie had a super soft coat and lots of loveable loose skin to pet. She loved a good scratch behind the ears. Sadly last week we had to make the difficult decision to let her go since her liver was failing.
We and her foster grandma were fortunate to be by her side as we helped her pass over the rainbow bridge on May 12, 2022.

We want to express Our deep Condolences and gratitude to her Forever Foster Family and North Figueroa Animal Hospital for their love, compassion and care for Sugar Cookie.

A few words from her foster mom. “She loved a good cozy bed and a cool breeze. I miss you so much cookie. Love you and it was an honor to have you as part of the pack. Will see you over the rainbow bridge someday.”

POEM OF A DOG
I am the one who always waits for you.
Your car has a special sound that I
have imprinted on my senses, I can
recognize it among a thousand.
Your steps have a magic timbre.
Your voice is music to my ears.
If I see your joy, it makes me happy!
Your scent is the best,
Your presence is what moves my
senses.
Your awakening wakes me up.
I watch you sleep and for me you are my God, I am happy watching over your sleep.
Your gaze is a ray of light. Your hands on me have the lightness of peace and the sublime display of infinite love.
When you go out, I feel a huge emptiness in my heart.
I wait for you again and again.
I am the one who will wait for you all my life today, tomorrow and always:
I am your dog ❤️

It’s ’s 6th adoptaversary! For those that don’t know his story, he was adopted from by his aunt after passed away. I was out of country and I can’t explain the pain I felt waiting to come home to say goodbye. It would take months before that would happen. would send pictures of many available dogs. After many many forwards, this little guy is who caught my attention and I agreed to adopt. He spent 3 weeks as a stray with an embedded harness waiting for a family who never came. It would be 3 weeks before I officially met my new little man. He has since helped mom foster ~45 pups. He plays, mentors, socializes senior and abandoned pups. He’s been there himself after all. He’s helped various rescues fundraise through calendars and walks. What can I say, I’m so lucky to have him in my life and I can’t imagine life without him. volunteers with and we find it only fitting to fundraise for the rescue responsible for bringing Vino into our lives. It’s $5 Friday. You can edit donation amount in link in bio and the fundraiser will run for 30 days. If you find it in your heart we’d appreciate your support.♥️😬

It’s with great sadness we helped Clover end her journey with us and pass over to rainbow bridge.
Clover had many medical issues from the day she came to us. Found in Compton in the middle of the street.... blind, wire hanger tied to her leg, extremely matted, full of fox-tails and skeletal. Since May we did everything we could to let her know what it’s like to have a loving, caring family. Unfortunately, we could not undo the damage suffered in her previous life. Her little frail body was not able to overcome her liver and kidney damage.

We appreciate her two foster families for loving and caring for her. It takes very special people to care for a blind dog with medical issues. Our hearts break with you.

Dr. Vasquez as well as all his staff were so caring and gentle. We appreciate your kindness.

On days like today life seems so unfair. Our hearts are broken. Saying goodbye was very difficult but it was time and the best decision we could have made.
We were honored for Clover to be part of our family. She can run free now, no more pain, fear or suffering
