On Wednesday, I found the cutest, little, isolated runt pittie pup crying inconsolably for his mama, and some warm body to snuggle up against. My heart sank, when I inquired as to his his impound story. This little guy wasn't getting enough nutrients and was separated from his mom and siblings to make sure he was eating. Appearing in size to be about 1month old, his little body needs to catch up to his age of 8weeks.
On Friday, I found another littermate in his cage as they wrapped their thin, but chunky little bodies into puppy knots.
I hand fed them as they shyly kissed my hand and calmly snuggled up with an innocence too gentle for this cruel world. I snapped a picture as to remember them as I knew the next time i went to the shelter to volunteer, their bodies would be locked inside a refrigerator with a mass of heaped carcasses in a steal drum awaiting transport.
1am Friday night, I was summoned as a Bacchanalian cohort to tend bar at Skylark at the insanely debaucherous, party central of San Francisco, - the Mission District. The often unsavory Mission has the most diverse crowd of people- from the hollowed, hungry ghosts of the crack pipe, to trannies turning tricks at Esta Noche, to the yuppie annoying blondes of Marina District to the Norteno and Soreno gangsters packing a shit load of attitude and concealed weapons of which Mission streets are often caught in the crossfire. Out of curiosity and not knowing what the rescues thought of this pups, i impulsively, texted Pali of Rocket Dog Rescue to found out if she knew about these little ones. (Unbeknownst to me that this was not intended to be public information and completely unaware what upheaval would ensue. oops.... The powers that be did not want information on these pups leaking out to rescues as they were slated for euthanasia and it was a unanimous decision amongst the employees.
Pali is tireless in her efforts to save dogs, I didnt want to overwhelm her with eight more dogs, as she has saved hundreds if not thousands of canines, but those little chunks were tugging at my heart strings all day.
Thank you Pali and Lena!! from Rocket Dog Rescue www.rocketdogrescue.org
These adorable pups mom and dad were "deemed vicious and dangerous in San Mateo County" which basically signs their death slip at any municipal shelter.
And due to what is seen as genetic transference of aggressive traits eight little babes were going to doggie heaven with their parents.
I was told Lena went marching in to the shelter to find out about these babes early sat morning and although a whole host of bureaucratic hogwash will ensue, these two of which there are also six more will live to see another day! I hope the passing of their mom and dad will be peaceful and i am sorry I couldnt save them.
Rocket Dog Rescue contacted Lana from www.GiveMeShelterSF.org a bay area cat rescue that has saved thousands of SPCA discards, ah, hem, i mean "declines." Thanks to these three, Lana, Lena and Pali for your hearts and tireless dedication...Give Me Shelter has already found placements for the little guys and girls.
