Tuff Stuff

OMFG! I just watched a poor dog run down on 7th Street by 2 cars that didn't even try to stop. So who should I be pi**ed off at the human that didn't use common sense to put the dog on a leash or the SOB drivers that just don't give a f**k????

I've managed to deal with my grief and keep it under wraps here but I'm currently sitting at the municipal animal shelter looking for a friend's dog and knowing that I am just a few feet away from a place that they kill these beautiful dogs makes me want to run like hell and get the f**k away from this place as fast as I can.

We don't kill people for being homeless so why is it acceptable to kill our animals for being homeless because they were let down by a careless human? 😤

Well it's no secret that I had lost my sweet lil TuffStuff and it BROKE me in ways I thought to be impossible. I've had and seen more than my share of sadness, loss and death in my life and I was raised by a generation that taught emotions were to be guarded and feelings NEVER to be outwardly demonstrated so as not to be viewed as vulnerable.
I walked like I was 10ft tall and bulletproof.
None of these things brought tears or put me to my knees.... until now.
This was an enemy that I had NEVER seen before and had no defense from the onslaught of emotions that would bury me like an avalanche 😭.
I've now learned the name of my enemy... GRIEF 😧 and it's whooping my ass like no other!!
A big "thanks" for all the support and condolences and I appreciate that no one responded saying "she was just a dog"
For if that was the case how could I have justified spending 28k in the short time of 11mon?
There was nothing uniquely special about my little TuffStuff she was your average pity but she was not without her charms but it's the story and the dire situation of how we met that made her so special. It's a story all its own where the stakes in play was her life and my freedom and the odds were stacked heavily against us but it was a Gamble back in 2011. I was willing to risk everything and return to prison for the act of saving her life just because of her breed.
We had so much in common in a world that did not like either one of us.
So for what it's worth my friends just know that I am not well but if you should be so kind as to ask, I will try and give you my best broken smile and tell you

I'm okay thanks for asking.

When your dog comes to the dog kennel because you’re tired of him, because he bothers you, prevents you from going on holiday or other excuses...

He sits and waits.
He's waiting for you to come get him.
A second, a minute, an hour, a day, a month, a year --- he's waiting for you.
He doesn’t know why, but he’s waiting because he trusts you; because unlike you, he loves you.

Your dog is not a toy. Think twice before getting a dog. You have the responsibility of a living being and of a family member.

My past may have held mistakes but my future doesn't!

I can too!
