It would be nice if the city dog pound would work with local shelters. Here in this town they charge the animal shelter $30.00 to rescue a dog that has been in their pound for 2 hours.

Another cat was surrendered to the shelter today that had been hit by a car, that makes two in the last week. It must be a full moon or something.

This is a job i hate to do! read more

Taking pictures of aimals are the hardest to do. Just when i think i have the picture the cat or dog will turn their head. I wished i had a camera that would freeze the picture the first time i click on the button. Most of the pictures are backsides or turned heads or closed eyes. I could not become a pet photographer. It is to hard! read more
