I believe it is a shelter--just a dialect difference. tblue37 Jan 2023 #9

IT would be for all dogs and cats to have loving families like that. Such love in that dog

society. A newlywed wanted us to accept her recently deceased mother's Persian. Her husband didn't want it. I told her if her husband didn't want her to have such an important part of her mother, she needed to keep the cat and get rid if the husband. I actually did! I must've been frustrated at something happening there!

I had one 30 years ago, and he's been gone for 25. I still miss him and couldn't replace him.

and he is the love of my life. Never had a dog show me so much affection, love, encouragement. The looks in his eyes will melt you. My hubby is sick this week and he won't leave his side, worried about him.

He follows us everywhere, we are retired so he gets loads of attention.

My Luke was an awesome dog. I miss him like crazy. Along with a few others. Hope to see them all on the Rainbow Bridge one day.

Not able to adopt another one at this time. One day.
