Conure Chick

I’ll tell you, people really suck. Last night after landing at the airport at 10 pm, I was driving home in Florida and saw a stray dog about to run into the highway. So I pulled over and got out of the car and chased the dog till it was out of the road. Eventually I was able to catch the dog, and when I was trying to lure the dog over, I noticed it was whimpering next to something on the side of the road. Turns out it was another dog, but the other dog appeared to be dead. It looked like someone hit the other dog with their car. It was so sad. Honestly I feel like I’d rather see a dead human than a dead dog. It was so horrible and reminded me of how much more I like dogs over humans. Long story short, I took the dog home with me and kept it in my back yard on the patio. She is very sweet. Sort of looks like a mix between a hound and a black mouth cur. I don’t want to call animal control because I don’t want the dog to be put down. It made me realize, we really need emergency 24/7 animal shelters that are no kill shelters all across our country. I didn’t sleep much because the poor dog was whimpering most of the night till she calmed down. Now I need to find this sweet girl a furever home! Last month, I saved 2 more dogs that were dumped in the road by a junkie. Then I drove 3 hours to take them to a no kill shelter I convinced to stay open after hours till midnight so I could drop those 2 dogs off. I feel like I’m that woman who is always bringing stray animals home. I am not kidding when I say I am always picking up strays. We have an epidemic of dog dumping in our country. It should be a felony to dump your dog in the road or to abandon your animals near a road. People like that deserve to be hit by cars instead of their dogs. Please don’t dump your dogs. I am getting tired of chasing dogs out of oncoming traffic but sadly I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon because humans suck.
