Wow, Sissy, those are some really stiff rules to apply to those just wanting to give an otherwise unwanted pet companion a family to live...and love life with. We have one of the highest rated death sentences for unwanted pets/strays in the nation, even tho adoption rules here are pretty liberal. the problem has gotten so bad that the community is beginning to pull together with solutions. Like, a brand new facility has opened for low and even some cases, no charge spay and neutering those animals that have people wanting to adopt. As far as the Pits go, it's the same for them if they are lucky enough to end up in a shelter. But, getting to one is harder for them, as we have trigger happy cops that get away with shooting any Pit that even looks at them...in a "wrong way". And the sickening dog fighting that goes on here is horrifying, as it is big BIG business gone way beyond what I can emotionally even discuss. We have amazing Veterinarians here that step up to the plate and care for those found discarded.
Wow, I almost don't want to post this, as it's a bit overwhelming for me. I hope it doesn't depress anyones day too much, but at the same time awareness is part of solution.
On the lighter side...and I'm not being a Pond Sliding braggy butt, Sissy :sun_smiley: , it's another warm and sunny 70 something day!
I want him to move forward, he will have lots of wonderful ladies in his life, and soon a permanent home, I'm sure. He will be missed, but it's time to move on. I'll will be very sad for sure!!!
