There are already some laws on the books. Trouble is they are seldom enforced.jlmarta said:@jd50ae

These two donkeys were kept in a barn 24/7. No light and no ventilation. They were underfed (understatement) and filthy. My wife and Amanda went to rescue another animal but when they saw the condition of these they were also rescued.

1 week ago we sent 7 ponies to Redemption Road Rescue. At least half came from them to us for rehab and fat bellies. They are now up for adoption to good homes and Redemption Road has so many contacts to make sure people who adopt are who they say they are. Kind of a strange feeling to see them go because you become very fond of them. But they are now healthy and have lost their fear of humans so off they go to find a forever home.One we will never let go is Grandpa Golden Shoes (I didn't name him), we all love this little horse, and now we can move him closer to the house.

We actually have a number of dogs that will not take a treat until they get petted.

Every once in awhile you have a good reason to get out of bed. Some days are so good you have a reason to stay out of bed.
For instance, 2 days ago a fellow showed up with a round hay bail and 6 bags of feed. It seems he heard about Holly's efforts from our "turkey" customer and just figured he would stop buy.
I was already up because I heard my wife exclaim "a new baby". Named Fable, and he is all legs and healthy.
It was a good day.8 -
Days don't get any better than that!

A local lawyer who takes on animal abuse cases decided to get a little more active in helping the critters. He adopted both mom and offspring. He has a good eye because these 2 have a great history and are kind of famous in the pony world. By word of mouth he has provide a great home.jd50ae said:Every once in awhile you have a good reason to get out of bed. Some days are so good you have a reason to stay out of bed.

The boys were out 4wheeling when they jumped the Obion River. Below they saw a little puppy trying to claw its way up the bank. Of course the boys rescued him and brought him home. As far as we can figure he was thrown out of a car, and because of that he was lame in one foot. Took him the vet and they could not fix it. About 6 months later I accidentally stepped on his foot, low and behold the foot was fixed.
We named him River.
After a few weeks and a lot of care (and food) he made it clear he wanted to be an outside dog, what are you gonna do, say no?
He grew into a beautiful dog, solid black. We know he was part Bull Dog and we assume he had some lab in him. Labs have to be the most promiscuous dogs I know of.
When he walked he was a sight to see. Head and tail up, with a trot like a horse. River got along with everyone, including all the different rescues. He did however take great pleasure in harassing the neighbors geese.
He suffered through the loss of an eye and a snake bite. When he asked to come live in the house he had the worst tick infestation I have ever seen. Two baths and finally I told my grand stepson that I would pay him a penny for every tick he pulled off. The kid made $1.98. He eventually came down with tick disease and the seizures. I would hold him until the seizure was over and eventually they stopped. He never once did any whining, amazing dog. He stayed by my side, was always glad to see me and he slept in my bed every chance he got.
I will miss him, a lot.

You know, it amazes me that there are people out there that thing certain "breeds" of dogs are inherently vicious.
Our dog is pit, mastiff and lab.
He loves attention and loves "Little Tree", our grand daughter.
Yesterday, she was loving on him. Giving him hugs and stuff.
So he lays down and she climbs on him like a horse.
So she cuddles with him for quite some time and we figured it was time she leave him alone and not be climbing on him.
He wouldn't let her leave him.
He literally started pouting when she wasn't climbing on him.
But he's so vicious.In Fumo Pax

Last week, we rescued a boxer/pit mix. She is the most gentle, loving dog I've ever seen. We call her wiggle butt because when she wags her tail, which is often, she wags her whole body.

The whole movement of their body when their tail wags must be a pit thing.YankeeMan said:Last week, we rescued a boxer/pit mix. She is the most gentle, loving dog I've ever seen. We call her wiggle butt because when she wags her tail, which is often, she wags her whole body.
And if anything is close, it's getting knocked over.
That and he still thinks he's a tiny puppy that can fit in your lap. LOL!

This is Annie. She is a mastiff cross and was bred(?) to go after bears, mountain lions and wolves. She is big, beautiful and loyal. Loves her head rubs, she will lay her head on my lap when I am at my desk for hours, until a long head rub has been administered and then she goes back to sleep. She sleeps for hours. Never barks in the house, but a deep and unmistakable profound throat sound lets you know she needed to go out and attend to business. She was an outside guard dog and watched over all the ponies, horses, chickens and Winston the pig. They are all safe under her all seeing eyes. If you are a coyote, cougar, fox or bird of prey all you will see is a flash before your lights go out.
She started losing weight (worms?) and we brought her in for some care. If she doesn't improve we will take her to the vet next payday. So far she is putting weight back on, but I think we will take her to the vet anyway.
