This is TRUTH: It is happening and real and heartbreaking 💔

I did not make this journey but needed to share so people understand:

💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

Today I saw true devastation and death and I am not ok…

Today was the first day that I attempted to make it into Asheville to work. I wanted to check on my store and my staff and see my coworkers and to get some much needed supplies. I am still out of power and water at my home in Marion. With hwy 40 East Bound closed I had to take back roads around it which included down close to lake Lure and Chimney Rock and then back up into Black Mountain and Swannanoa before finally into Asheville.

The normally 40 minute drive to work took the better part of two hours and in that time the things I saw will haunt me for the rest of my life. The lightest of things were down trees collapsed power lines. I drove over and under so many destroyed power lines it wasn’t even funny.

Then I got into areas where I was driving over cliffs and the edges of collapsed roads some of which had me wondering if I would even make it to Asheville alive or see my little girl again. On more than one occasion my car felt as if it were slipping off the road. The road was collapsed in many places and slid down the mountains and or into rivers below so much so that barely one car could make it through. I even had to drive through what used to be a stream which is now small river that had overtaken a bridge. It took me a while to get the courage to drive through it because I couldn’t see the bottom and wasn’t sure how deep it was or how safe it was to drive through. I had to wait on someone else obviously more familiar with the area to go through first for reassurance I could make it in my little Kia.

Then I began to see cars such as the one below and even houses and a couple of campers collapsed and or washed away down the mountains and the rivers. Not even just with trees fallen on them. They had completely been destroyed and taken away by the storm waters. I saw whole sides of mountains and rivers that had collapsed in giant mudslides more than one hundred feet high easily.

But that wasn’t the worst…

As I drove through several areas where the storm had hit the worst I saw bodies. Bodies of animals wild and domestic, and then..I saw human bodies who had gotten caught in the storms and the rivers. (No im not kidding or exaggerating) At first I thought they were Halloween decorations or just clothes or something but as I got closer I could see they weren’t,they were real. Real victims of Helene washed away by the storm. I saw their faces.

Words cannot describe how much I was affected by those sights. Even worse when I was able to get signal when finally getting into Asheville I called emergency to let them know about the victims, and was told they would get to them when they could but they were currently overwhelmed with calls similar in nature and the disaster response, and honestly they didn’t know if and when they would be able to get to them.

All of this was happening while on the radio which for Asheville has mostly become call ins a woman got on the call from Swannanoa to talk about the bodies she had seen floating down river and piling up.

I am horrified. I am not ok. Those two hours this morning completely changed me. It’s one thing to hear of these kinds of disasters and a complete other to see it, truly see it. I’ve seen posts of people trying to find their loved ones in all of this, and all I can think of now is..were some of those people I saw the loved ones they were searching for? What will happen to them? Could anyone have saved them? Did they have any warning? I am utterly heartbroken.

I’m sure my coworkers thought I lost my mind because I couldn’t really do much except stare off into space thinking about what I saw and or was in tears.

WNC was never prepared for what happened with this hurricane. I don’t know if there was a way to prepare for what happened, and now all I can say is if you have family in WNC and/or anywhere that was affected by this storm please help them, check on them, do what you have to.

Please keep us all in your thoughts and prayers. Please remember kindness in the face of this disaster.

We are not ok. Today I saw true devastation and death and I am not ok…

I can't take him to the beach for a walk because it bothers you on your vacation, you don't allow me to rent a house if I have a dog, nor can I put it on urban public transport.
However, I can take him to the rubble to look for you after an earthquake, in the forest after you got lost in the mountain and you had no map or GPS; under the snow, because you did a forbidden off-piste; in the water, because despite the red flag, you went swimming when the posted signs said not to. You welcome him when you need him but not when it’s not convenient for you. After all….”it is just a dog”….

Think again people. Dogs are better than most humans, they’re kinder, more loyal, love unconditionally and they appreciate you no matter whether you deserve it or not.

Mystery Virus Killing Dogs
‘Keep your dogs home, don’t take them to dog parks, don’t walk them’
Posted Friday, August 19, 2022 12:00 am
HARRISON – Prior to addressing the Clare County Board of Commissioners during its Aug. 17 meeting, Clare County Animal Control Director Rudi Hicks shared with the Cleaver some sad and disturbing information. An unidentified virus, symptomatically similar to canine parvovirus, has been affecting dogs in the state. She said it was found in Otsego County first, where there were 20 cases.

“It mimics Parvo, but they are all testing negative,” Hicks said. “All of the dogs have died, vaccinated and unvaccinated. We just had eight dogs in our county, that we know of. We took a dog down yesterday for necropsy that just died of it, but don’t have the results back.”

Hicks said the virus is everywhere, and that it is believed to have come out of Louisiana.

She said the virus kills the infected dog within three days of the appearance of symptoms, and was quick to add that her dogs are not leaving the house.

“We’re not going to dog parks, we’re not going camping with them,” Hicks said. “Because there’s no cure There’s no vaccine because they haven’t identified it yet.”

She said that, due to the negative test results it is either a brand new strain of the Parvo virus that the test doesn’t pick up, or it’s something totally different.

When Hicks addressed the board after it approved a request for the shelter to use its own funds to erect a new storage/large animal housing building, and approved a spay/neuter grant, she brought the same shocking news to the commissioners.

“There is a new virus in Michigan that’s affecting dogs,” she told the commissioners. “We thought we were fine; we had not had any deaths. As of today, from last Thursday [Aug. 11] until now, we’ve had over 30 dogs die of a virus, a disease – not at the shelter – in the county. It mimics Parvo, so it’s vomiting, bloody diarrhea, and they all died within three days: vaccinated dogs and unvaccinated dogs.”

When asked if it was known how the disease spreads, Hicks said it is unknown. “They don’t know anything. The state is in a panic right now.”

She explained that cases started in Otsego, and that eight dogs along the street across from her own house had all died in three days. Hicks also said Animal Control had taken a carcass the previous day and had tested it in the field for Parvo; it was negative but had all the symptoms.

“We drove it to MSU yesterday,” she said. “So, we should get results, but just a warning to the public: Keep your dogs home, don’t take them to dog parks, don’t walk them.”

Hicks reiterated that, at this point, there is no vaccine, and no cure. She also spoke of a late evening call the day prior advising that a breeder in the southern part of the county had lost 21 puppies and dogs. Hicks said that report had not yet been confirmed, and repeated the symptoms as: vomiting, diarrhea and bloody diarrhea.

Not sure where this comes from.. but worth sharing for a good laugh!

Dear Customer,

Congratulations on acquiring your Aussie. Please find the instructions for your particular model listed below:

Although your Aussie comes fully assembled, due to particular issues during production, we do occasionally have issues with components such as screws. They invariably are either loose or missing altogether.

Mode 1: This is the sleep mode, activated for some of the day as the Aussie ages. This is normal and you should not worry about it, just accept the peace and quiet while you can.

Mode 2: Anarchy. Although we have tried to ease the effect of anarchy mode, it’s not always possible. There are inherent issues with the timer settings of anarchy mode in regards to there being none. Should your Aussie suddenly go from comatose to running around the walls, we cannot stop this feature.

Mode 3: Velcro. We believe somewhere in the assembly process someone installed an elite magnet that only is attracted to humans. We apologize in advance for the constant interruptions in the bathroom and any other place that requires privacy.

Naming: Your Aussie comes untitled as we feel owners should use names of their own. If you are unsure, we have listed below a few names our owners like to use:

Did you do this?
You’re kidding me
Give that back!
Don’t you dare
Ausshole
Put that down
Whyyyy?
Get that out of your mouth!
Stop herding the children

Software: Your Aussie is pre-installed with the highest software and hardware. This includes the loyalty chip, the love every one chip, the neurotic chip, the fun chip and, of course, the highly popular mayhem chip. They are all running on the WHATTHEFU@@ operating system 12.2. Although this has been in circulation for many years, we have found it simply cannot be improved upon.

Feel free to inform us of any other surprise bonus Modes that have popped up by contacting customer support at 1-800-Aus-hole.

Thank you and enjoy your new Aussie!

Sincerely,

Your Customer Support Team

Sharing from a friend (Monica Hollingsworth) in response to a question by someone wanting to breed just a litter to have a puppy just like the one the bought.:

A few things that I don’t see talked about is the potential for loss. I’ve been a breeder for many years like most that are giving advice, I have mentored several of my friends who are in the same boat as you are currently. They bought a puppy with the mentality it would be a pet only dog. Then years later they decided to breed. My advice is, don’t ever breed a dog you’re not ok with losing. As breeders who love their dogs we understand the risks & accept them. We always hope for the best but prepare for the worst. The pet person typically doesn’t prepare themselves for all of the potential loss that is involved in breeding. A really good friend of mine asked for this same advice a few years ago when she was thinking about breeding her dog, who was her heart dog. She waited until her dog was mature, fully health tested, then used a stud from the breeder she purchased her girl from. She took her in for sono, X-ray, did prenatal care etc. prepared a whelping area and puppy playpen fit for royalty. Her dog went into labor in the middle of the night, hours passed and no puppies. I told her call the emergency vet and get her there now. 5 am emergency c-section. Her girl never woke up, 11 puppies that all needed to be bottle fed. For the next 6 weeks she was caring for puppies around the clock, in spite of her best efforts only 8 survived. The others were placed in new homes between 10-16 weeks. Once it was all over she was able to take a breath and grieve the loss of her beloved pet. She was absolutely crushed, I lost count how many times she told me she wished she would have really considered the risks. You always here how things go well and that’s usually the case. Even after you have a successful live litter the loss doesn’t end there. You send your puppies off to their new homes and look forward to the updates you’ll get. Until the update is your puppy was hit by a car, killed by a stray dog, contracted parvo & died, was euthanized for biting a child etc. These puppies are your responsibility for the next 10-15 years. Divorce and can’t keep the dog? Moving and the landlord doesn’t allow pets, owner suddenly passes away, new puppy is too much work, kid leaves for college, dog is too active for the home. All are reasons people get rid of their dogs. Are you prepared to take them back? It’s easy to say yes to all of this now. I’m not trying to discourage you but it’s worth saying that raising puppies is physically and emotionally exhausting, it’s not all butterflies & rainbows.
If she’s your pet and you can’t imagine losing her before old age my advice is just buy a puppy and tell your family and friends to do the same because your girls health and potential for behavioral changes post whelping is not worth supplying them with a free or cheap puppy.
