We dropped off Bug(sy) at Muttville yesterday. It was hard to say goodbye to this little angel, but he’s in amazing hands and will get adopted quickly. Why am I so confident? They turn these dogs around fast there! Also, looking at the other seniors in there, he’s far more ambulatory and relatively young for a dog his size, so he probably has many more happy years of his life.

I know he and I bonded very much, but that also proves to me that he can easily bond with another person after his surgery. I have to keep telling myself that it is not a failure on my part not to take in every stray, but my mission on the board of HSNB is to make sure as many homeless animals as possible are permanently homed. Muttville is amazing and the facilities are incredible while he waits a short while to be adopted. His new name will be Hammock!
