Rescuing Marley: Updated with Wifey's Writing on the Experience | |
MultiStrada User ID: 25674130  United States12/26/2012 01:35 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | He was not an addition. Just fostered for a while. He lives down in Florida now. He is an incredible dog. Very inspirational to me. My wife is all into dog rescue, so we've had dogs in and out of the house, but none like Marley and what he had been through. If there is such a thing as evil, it is man. It takes men to overcome evil. This one kind of got to me OP, and not in a bad way. Thanks.  |

This is Dusty Bottoms.  Shenanigans is on the left, Callisto on the right. When this picture was taken Shenanigans was about 8 months old. Yep, she's a puppy! lmao  This is Sevin. She almost died twice when we were trying to save her. She's blind in one eye, and deaf.  Jupiter frolicking on the beach.  And this big one weighs in at over 160 lbs and still needs to gain a little. His name is MoJo. (They are all looking at some food).

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27352798 In Marley's case, it really sucks. These guys are illegal immigrants, which is REALLY tangling up the court proceedings, etc. They have video and stills of the torturing of the dogs, and of course all the deceased dogs recently killed when the feds showed up, so there is a lot of 'proof'.

Peoples focus, some focused on your kindness and others focused on the cruelty to the animals, it is important where we place our focus and if the things we find ourselves focusing on are of a positive or negative nature, given the choice of the two like was unwittingly given by you via this thread I would like to always choose to focus on the positive part, very Cool.
