I GOT A CALL REGARDING A PUG THAT WAS DUMPED OFF. I WENT AND GOT HER AND TOOK HER TO THE VET. SHE WAS HEALTHY. SHE CAME HOME WITH ME. THE FIRST NITE SHE GROWLED AT MY HUSBAND WHEN HE TURNED ON MY LITE. SHE WAS A BIG GIRL, BUT WAS WITH 2 OTHER FAMILIES BEFORE BEING DUMPED. I DIDN’T KNOW HER TOTAL LIFE BEFORE ME.
SHE WOULD PLAY WITH LIZZY MY GOLDEN, BUT ONE DAY SHE PLAYED SO HARD, SHE WENT AFTER MY LITTLE PUG. THERE WAS A VET RUN. SHE STARTED GETTING JEALOUS, SO I CALLED PUG RESCUE AND SHE CAME AND GOT HER. I CALLED AND CHECKED ON HER AS WE KNEW SHE NEEDED A PET FREE FOREVER HOME.
AFTER 3 WEEKS, JANE CALLED AND ASKED IF WE COULD WATCH BUFFY WHILE SHE WAS GONE, SURE. SHE WAS HAPPY TO SEE ME AND I HER. BUT WE COULD NOT FIND THAT HOME SHE NEEDED. SHE KEPT GETTING INTO TROUBLE AND WE WERE ABLE TO BREAK IT UP. BUT ON ONE OCCASION, ONE OF MY PUGS GOT HURT. OFF TO THE VET. SO WE GATED THEM APART. AT NIGHT SHE HAD THE KITCHEN AND LIVING ROOM. SHE COULD COME INTO FAMILY ROOM AND SIT WITH ME. BUT ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION WE HAD TO BREAK UP DISPUTES. THE VET SAID TO TRY ELAVIL, WE DID AND HAD A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY. STILL TRYING TO
FIND A GOOD FOREVER HOME.
THEN ON NOV. 19, 2006, WHILE ON THE COMPUTER WITH HER, THE OTHERS GATED, SHE WENT TO THE GATE AND STARTED GROWLING AND THEN TRIED TO GET ONE OF THE MY RESCUED PUG’S CHIN,. WHAT A BAD NIGHT, I GRABBED HER HARNESS AND MY HUSBAND TOOK THE OTHERS OUTSIDE WHILE
SHE WAS GATED IN THE HALLWAY.
THEN ALL MY GUT FEELINGS WERE COMING TRUE: AT THAT TIME I KNEW; SHE HAD BEEN ABUSED, NEGLECTED, INTERBREED, AND HAD SOME EMOTIONAL PROBLEMS THAT I COULD NOT FIX. SO I CALLED MY VET AT HOME(KNOWING IN MY HEART THAT SHE NEEDED TO BE FREE), WE SPOKE AND AFTER I SPOKE TO JANE FROM PUG RESCUE, I HAD TO WAY WHAT WAS FAIR TO ALL.
BUFFY, A BIG, BUT YOUNG PUG, HAD TO BE PUT TO SLEEP SO SHE WAS NO LONGER UNHAPPY. THE VET, MYSELF AND VET TECH DECIDED IT WAS BEST FOR BUFFY TO BE SET FREE. I MISS HER, BUT HER YOUNG LIFE MADE HER SO WARPED, I HAVE TO SAY BE FREE BUFFY AND REMEMBER WE LOVE YOU.
IN THAT SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME TOGETHER, SHE WILL BE REMEMBERED. RESCUING IS HARD ENOUGH(AS ALL MINE THAT HAVE PAST ARE HERE), BUT I WAS NOT ABLE TO BE HER FOREVER HOME(FIRST TIME), BUT I GAVE HER YOUNG LIFE FREEDOM FROM ALL THE PAIN.
BUFFY GIRL, YOU TOUCHED MY HEART, BE AT PEACE AND BE FREE. ALL THE OTHERS ARE WAITING FOR YOU.
