Buckie here I wanted to share my recent events with you all. 

I have been dealing with cancer for a while and recently I wasn't feeling too well. My humans took me to the doctors and it was found that I have an enlarged heart with fluid around it. The doctor said that I would need new medicines to address this but he wasn't sure if my kidneys were going to be strong enough to handle it. He said that without this medicine I wouldn't have much of a chance to survive and that with it if my kidneys weren't strong enough that the medicine would kill me. I am in a catch 22 and that is not even considering the cancer. There is a chance that I will be able to tolerate the medicine and have more time to enjoy my life because I do! I have a great spirit and attitude and I love life. My humans always say that I am a character and I'm still not sure what exactly that means but I think it's a compliment. I am very different from my brother who is more laid back and chill. I know what I like and what I want and I go for it. I have always been high energy and like to play and enjoy all the good things in life as well as my loving family. I know that I always come around to this topic but it is very important to me. I feel that I have had a blessed life with people that love and care for me, that provided a forever home and kept their promise to me that they would do everything and anything they can for me. That provided me with food, treats, toys, companionship and love. My wish is that every dog have the same opportunity that I did. I hope that one day all dogs will have loving homes and people that regard them not just as dogs but as part of the family that they love and cherish. There are a lot of dogs in need and if we all do one small thing that can add up to a whole lot. Spread the love.

Santa, All I want for Christmas is that all dogs have a loving home!

A Holiday Wish!

I wish that all dogs all over the world have a loving home! No place too near of too far to be beyond the reach of this wish. All dogs to be viewed for loving sentient beings that they are. All dogs to be treated fairly and not judged on false information or based on their looks. 

It's almost Christmas and whether you celebrate Hanukkah, Kwanza, Christmas or any other holiday or don't celebrate any at all, the holidays are all around us.  There are so many dogs that are not fortunate and don't have loving homes, family, and are alone in cold cages some on death row, for nothing that they have done. Some are there because of ignorant biases, being judged based on their looks or some other factor that is not accurate. My focus this new year to do more to help the cause. I'm sharing on Facebook, I reach out to people and connect  with people on behalf of the dogs in need, in danger. and in trouble. Donating to non kill shelters or rescues that pull dogs in bad situations from kill shelters. Offering products on line for sale and donating ten percent to the cause. I think adopting is wonderful and everyone should research the general specifics about a certain breed or mix if considering a particular dog. To interview the dog and to know if the dog is high energy, likes other dogs, kids and make sure that the dog is a match to your life. In my opinion, having a dog come into your life is a serious commitment. There is nothing like a dog in your life, it can be a wonderful experience and very rewarding. 

My dream would be to have a "hotel" for dogs that feels like home. For those dogs that don't have homes to provide long term (if needed) housing in an atmosphere that feels like home. To be able to provide everything they need including medical care. Please consider what each of us can do, even one small action can make a difference. Spread the love, joy, and hope. 

Rescue Love and Happy Holidays!
