Wishing all my doggy pals a very Merry Christmas. I know I haven't been around in a long time but I hope to see you all in the New Year while mummy is on holidays with me. Love you and miss you all Gizmo
Hi! I enjoy your Petitude blog and thought you might be interested in a project I'm working on that features adopted dogs.
I’m raising awareness about puppy mills and supporting dog rescue groups by publishing breed-specific books full of stories about adopted dogs. The books give proud owners of adopted dogs a chance to showcase them, raise awareness about dog adoption and breed characteristics, and generate funding for dog rescue through the donation of a portion of each sale (we donated $3,800 in 2009 from book sales).
We’ve now completed “Lost Souls: Found!” books on Boston Terriers, Golden Retrievers, Dachshunds, Labradors, and Pit Bulls. in 2010 we intend to publish books on CHIHUAHUAS, German Shepherd Dogs, Boxers, Beagles, Rottweilers, Australian Shepherds, Basset Hounds, Yorkies, Huskies, and Schnauzers. Is there anything you can do to help us spread the word that we are looking for stories from people about their adopted dogs? More information and book previews can be found at http://happytailsbooks.com. Thank you, Kyla
On June 3rd 2008 I was on my way home from being up where I agist my horse Boaz when I saw the smallest dog ever running up the middle of the road heading straight for our car. My mum stopped and opened up her door and in jumped, who I’d later name, Gizmo.
After spending 30mins driving around the area looking for the owners I took Gizmo home and reported him to the pound. I tried so hard not to get too attached to him in case I found his owners but it was too hard not to. Gizmo was the cutest, most sweetest dog I’d ever met and I couldn’t help but fall madly in love with him right away.
On June 5th, Just 2 days after I found him, my worst nightmare came true. My mum found Gizmo’s owners and I had to return him. I didn't want to but kept telling myself that it was the right thing to do and that it was in Gizmo’s best interests to be with his original owner.
I gave him back & returned home, without Gizmo and with a broken heart instead. I cried myself to sleep for the next few nights praying that I could go back in time and keep him instead of giving him up.
Luckily fate stepped in.
On June 7th, I was up feeding Boaz again when I heard a familiar barking and low and behold it was Gizmo. He had ran away again and somehow managed to find me. We were so happy to see each other but Gizmo wouldn’t leave my side, afraid I would give him back again. Thankfully his owners saw how much Gizmo loved me and how deeply I loved him back and they let me buy him.
Gizmo and I are now a family and we are very happy. We thank Fate for bringing us together so uniquely.
